This is from another article why Ron Paul won't be picked as VP. It could also apply to him speaking at the convention.
Shenanigans at the convention would cause Romney serious headaches, but Paul backers won't be able to force him onto the ticket. And the Paul campaign, which is trying to make nice with the mainstream GOP, is discouraging disruptive efforts. As for Romney choosing Paul, it would be, to put it politely, insane: Paul's nonintervention foreign policy views differ significantly from the presumptive nominee, he wants to decriminalize drugs at the federal level, his name adorned racially-charged newsletters in the 1990s, he'll be 77 years old on Election Day, and polls suggest he would be a drag on the ticket. Paul's son, Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul, is slightly more likely to be picked, but his views align too much with his father for him to be seriously considered.
I think Bernie Madoff would fit right in with Romney finances. Madoff should get out of jail so he could deliver the keynote speech for the failed party.
The Republican convention will be a long bad joke punctuated by occasional episodes of hysterical delusion. Its only positive effects will come from the dollars that will flow into Tampa's many fabulous restaurants from the wallets of the conventioneers.
The Democratic convention will be a long bad joke punctuated by occasional episodes of hysterical delusion. The only positive effects will come from the fact that most of the Democrat hypocrits will be in the same place and the rest of the country will get a rest from their hypocrisy. All we have to do to get away from them during this time is click off the TV! WooHoo!
We can be absolutely sure of one person that will NOT be asked to speak at the Republican convention. Let's not embarrass him too much by giving his name, but his middle initial is 'W'.
