Republicans are UnCool part 7

So, there is this story on the music and entertainment that we can expect at the Republican National Convention at the end of the month. To sum up:

He said yesterday that he expected the convention to be heavy with gospel, country and Broadway music, and with patriotic music. He said there would be several renditions of the national anthem as well.

Which brings me to just how uncool the Republicans are compared to the Democrats. Showtunes? Just how many renditions of the national anthem do they want to sit through? I mean the DNC had the Black Eyed Peas for God's sake.

This returns me to a long-standing theme here at Craigorian Chant: Laying aside unimportant stuff like war and taxes, Democrats will always be cooler than Republicans. There are some basic demographic facts that cause this. Republicans simply have no gay people, black people, or young people. This renders them physically incapable of being cool. Sad, but true.
