Sorry to be so blunt and profane, but they are. In their ongoing effort to tear down anything resembling factual data, Newsbusters - an arm of the Media Research Center - is now trying to say that the atmosphere at Invesco field was not in fact what you saw with your own two eyes. [...]

Democratic Convention News
See we don’t hate America.
Well, I think we just had a moment here. The AP has detail, but it was one of those emotional moments I’m really glad I was there for.
Video:
So, leave it to me to find the really nice seats they’ve set aside for bloggers on the last day we’re going to be inside here. Anyhow, I’m on the mid-level, which is the same level NBC, Fox, CNN and AP have their pavilions. Oh, and Al Jazeera. Which is right above where they’ve put [...]
“The Democratic Convention: Choosing The 2012 Frontrunner”
* The typeface being used on the giant screen during the convention to identify each person is the same type the Obama campaign has been using on their material since launch.
* Almost every speech last night made a distinction between McCain as “more of the same” and Obama/Biden as “the change we need”. Democrats, [...]
Have they begun talking up the idea that President Clinton’s speech will be tepid or half hearted? I really hope so. I mean, underestimating President Clinton? In oratory? Yes, please do that.
ALSO: I’m sure the MSM will still find the random crazy disgruntled PUMA or whatever to talk about how they’re voting for McCain or [...]
Charlie Rangel fired up the crowd, Patrick Leahy put them to sleep. Good guy, but not a rabble rouser.
These buttons are circulating…
I concede that I’ve only heard about it second hand, but apparently James Carville bitched and moaned on CNN about the convention tonight because I guess they didn’t go after McCain enough. My guess is that is coming, especially with Sen. Clinton and Sen. Biden. But even if that’s not so, can someone tell me [...]
So here are some shots from today. I got to go on the floor for about a half hour and its pretty insane. At any given moment you could run into Ed Rendell. Not, like “Oh hi Ed Rendell”, but physically BAM Ed Rendell is on the floor and Oh My God who will bitch [...]
* Take 2 buses to the wrong stop
* Visited the Media Matters lounge
* Get lost in Denver which has the worst street signs I’ve ever seen
* Stood in line with Mike Allen, Ben Smith, Jonathan Martin, Nedra Pickler and Adam Nagourney
* Met African American Political Pundit who saw me in a most disheveled state due [...]
It’s clear that Fox is no longer the big bad wolf it was in 2004, but I wonder if their convention coverage will be the same load of nonsense it was in 2004, with Bill O’Reilly wondering if Ted Kennedy would show up to speak as Kennedy spoke right behind him. And will Fox News [...]
Apparently they had a rodeo… in honor of Martin Luther King.
Sen. Kennedy may attend the Democratic convention. That would be phenomenal.
I arrived in Denver the same time as Sen. Dick Durbin…
UPDATE: I also saw Vermont’s Sen. Patrick Leahy waiting at a luggage carousel. He was looking at the crowd around Sen. Durbin and I’m guessing he was a little jealous. I mean, he’s got stature, but right now Illinois is the new hotness.
If you are in the Dallas metro area and a tornado threatens, you should go to the men’s restroom in terminal C of the airport. They are prepared.
So I’m sitting here in the Dallas airport having breakfast in front of this big ass Sprint ad and I realize that Texas’ conservatism isn’t what bugs me. It’s that this is a town and state that provides aid and comfort to the Cowboys.
Also when traveling across time zones is it ok to give lotto [...]
So American Airlines is part of something called the One World Alliance and they proudly announced their affiliation upon landing. How have none of the New World Order conspiracy types picked up on this?
– from Dallas Fort Worth airport I’m bringing you the scoop
“Oh, I wasn’t paying attention.”
How awesome is that?
As most of you know, I’m going to the convention next week (I leave Sunday) and since I don’t actually have any reporting skills, I want to know from you what sort of things you’d like me to find out about. There’s a good shot I may write some stupid Hunter S. Thompson lite stream [...]
