Play from 0:01[0:01]" Democrats feel about the Republican convention will not that he's an official spokesperson but. Alan Colmes of Fox News channel's Hannity and Colmes certainly does take that side from."

Play from 0:12[0:12]" Time to time. Eight I'm a liberal it happened about democratic is that it was a politically but you know I have a food taster a bodyguard of doing just -- You know I've got Sean Hannity is my food -- here."

Play from 0:27[0:27]" Well as so you're not drinking the Kool aid and that and that's. Okay. -- what what do you think it -- even for civil of the of the ticket the Republican ticket and I would imagine it's fair to say that you like most people work. Rather surprised governor -- was selected."

Play from 0:44[0:44]" I think so is John McCain slick I think I'm ready you know the -- worked right up early and he wanted Joe Lieberman wondered how bridge. Right wing of the party would -- about the pro choice candidate. He chose somebody who -- untested question you know that well vetted she was and the McCain can't just put up this morning you know -- not exerting more vetting questions. They really tired of it the word is they only spoke once they met wants and that they offered the job I just. You know I know that the liberals like myself have been accused of taking swipes at that I but it is the same thing that ever said for example. But. You know I think there are questions of judgment and there are questions who is -- there are talks that are having been originated video. Great third largest party in Alaska secessionist party which he allegedly was a member of which they claimed she was she says she wasn't. Of Albert and John McCain really know about this person and it she. If you really going to be all the other thing that concerns me is did as a -- cynically believe that Hillary Clinton's supporters. Simply because of gender but it -- somebody's got a very different point of view I think it's a cynical choice based on the fact that Obama did not put a woman honest that it."

Play from 1:56[1:56]" one of these things it has been sitting criticism of Barack Obama is that he doesn't have the experience does the selection of the governor of Alaska who doesn't have much experience in that position sort of neutralize that slam on Obama."

Play from 2:12[2:12]" I think -- think that argument away they're trying to shoot great experience she was a PGA number. If you Wednesday. Then I heard him say she lives near Russia and she got our policies are actually got military -- because as a governor she had the National Guard now that I they're they're just they're grasping at straws to make it sound like. She's got. More experience than Obama because you've got quote unquote unquote executive experience. And they want to diminish Obama what equities he ever done -- be a community organizer. Actually has a long record about the state senator a constitutional attorney at United analyst at think he's done. Included legislative accomplishments but they've been diminishing Obama forever. And yet they want to hold disperse the business. You know what the idea of my biggest concern about. Is that the idea that you ought to -- somebody is ready day one god forbid something happens to the president who made the better choice for VP was. -- Obama or John McCain -- Obama made of you know the first Church you make is this Joyce I think Obama did much better than became the."

Play from 3:14[3:14]" Although -- was everybody knows the average voter doesn't select one ticket over the other on the strength of the vice president is the person who was running for president that really matters. And -- given given the the crises overseas most recently in Georgia for example. Doesn't that put McCain and a stronger position Obama."

Play from 3:33[3:33]" I don't and actually -- that I believe -- Obama camp with a -- with a much more measured response right after the republic of Georgia got -- with Russia. And McCain -- know that much or more forceful militaristic. And director response. It has claimed that Obama then moderated his response actually actually -- the other way around. The you know there are is that there are -- this story. And Obama was much more even -- other people that he was even -- it bothers people it is an even handed I have -- What's happening in Israeli Palestinian crisis. But I think that's what a leader does and we're going to be a broker for peace among warring factions that's appropriate response for president today."

Play from 4:17[4:17]" finally what do you expect to hear from John McCain when. He accepts the nomination and sets the agenda for the rest of the election campaign. "

Play from 4:27[4:27]" I think McCain himself -- surrogates do the dirty work but. I think McCain himself with -- here. Tonight we'll probably hear him with a narrative of his life story we'll hear a lot about his heroism in Vietnam something nobody can deny. We'll Jimmy Carter Jimmy Carter tried to downplay that didn't. What -- analysts said the same thing McCain did which is just because you're. We -- and so opposite that would be -- been in the prison camp that doesn't necessarily make you. The best candidate -- the United States and you know McCain himself was very abuser so basing. Said that but that the record as speaker every Democrat and I do think that -- you know you can collect that some comment anybody community decides they say what they're saying. In. Like ordinary admirable life story. I McCain and so -- And you know both Obama and McCain will say. We went -- about families in want to talk about personals. We want to just -- on the issues and it let their listeners. You know that this flight is a -- like well where did you know the democratic convention. And I think Keylon. You know once again on the on the campaign trail and be more forceful have to the other side."

Play from 5:39[5:39]" Alan Colmes of fox news' Hannity and Colmes. One of the most widely watched shows on TV every night five nights a week -- bricks talked again thank -- up the good public."
