I don't think that the audience for conventions has a ton of undecided voters, so I watch more to see what issues a party highlights and what future leaders advertise themselves to a national audience. Pence showed that one can translate Trump's policies into a much more standard political vernacular -- and made me wonder if that's what Pence's 2024 bid will look like. The focus on law and order isn't surprising; that's where Trump's advertising has focused in recent weeks.
