Watch live video here and join the conversation as we live blog the 2012 GOP convention. 6:42 PM PT: Texas GOP Senate candidate Ted Cruz is speaking now, but the big star of the evening will be Chris Christie, scheduled to speak in about an hour. Apparently his speech is heavy on himself and light on Mitt.
These Chris Christie remarks are amazing. All about himself. Doesn't even squeeze Mitt in until the very end and says his name only 7 times' @evale72 via Echofon

Rarely link to Drudge, but he claims to have Chris Christie's prepared speech: http://t.co/... #gop2012' @AriMelber via web
7:00 PM PT: Nikki Haley, like the rest of the clowns on stage tonight, apparently would have failed her SAT reading comprehension test as well, because she also says Obama told her parents that they didn't build their business.

7:01 PM PT: Maybe it's just me, but this crowd has been fairly sleepy all night long. But I suspect Chris Christie will arouse them.
7:02 PM PT:
Santorum's speech script ran 1,150 words before he uttered Romney's name. After: 28 words. #2012— @Philip_Elliott via web
