This is the view from my window! I won\u2019t be swimming today.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/p>

I feel like we\u2019ve been through so much together politically that you might be interested in the things going on at the GOP Conference in Tampa.\u00a0 Today is a pleasantly slow day here, now that the RNC canceled the big events at the convention center.\u00a0 The Tennessee delegation is hanging out at a beachside hotel, with storm clouds off in the horizon.\u00a0 The mood is still festive and fun, however, as everyone gets to know the story of Gov. Romney and Paul Ryan.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
I was meeting an EFM reader when Sen. Bob Corker walked by!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Also, we have a nice AT&T sponsored breakfast during which Senator Bob Corker gave a very strong endorsement of the Republican ticket.\u00a0 He actually said he believed the combination of Romney\/Ryan would be the strongest team in modern history!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a>
Frank Luntz was a surprise guest, and he was really funny!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Then, Frank Luntz was a surprise guest.\u00a0 He\u2019s a funny guy and inspired the room to be kind to our friends who voted for Obama the last time around, to encourage them to re-evaluate their loyalty to the President after such a disappointing four years.<\/p>\n

We are enjoying our time here, meeting EFM and French Revolution readers, and getting to hang out with my sister and brother-in-law Mary Kate and Josh Brown of the Tennessee delegation!<\/p>\n

There are 15,000 members of the media here, and we\u2019ve got a few appointments with some of them.\u00a0 I\u2019ll keep you posted on all activities \u2014 wish you were all here!<\/p>\n
