Republican Lameness Part 8

Via Talkingpoints Memo I found a NYTimes story on the music that will be playing during the RNC. Lots of Southern Rock stuff, very retro. But the true sign of GOP lameness comes at the very end of the story:

And coming on stage after Dickey Betts will be a band called Super Diamond, which according to its Web site, is "the alternative Neil Diamond Experience."

Alternative, yes: Mr. Diamond himself performed at a June fundraiser — for John Kerry.


A Neil Diamond cover band. I am not sure, but this could be the Platonic ideal of lame.
