Denver: Monday night live blogging

National, Politics 1 Minute

8:46pm ET: Right now, on stahe is Jesse Jackson Jr. The Virgina delegation is seated on the floor, in the center, right behind the Illinois delegation. Funny thing: one of the teleprompters is right behind our seats.

8:52pm: Not sure what you guys are seeing on TV but if you hear music in the background, it’s not being piped in. The band is playing live.

  2. Don’t know about the networks, but C-SPAN has great coverage of the band — they’re also showing lots of random pictures of people dancing that probably shouldn’t be so be careful. 🙂

  3. Ask David Gregory if he wants to be a reporter when he grows up.

    (And it’s a ()*#@%ing shame that they didn’t have Carter speak live. They worried about a little truth telling?)

  5. From your twitter: “…Doug Wilder is here. He’s staying mum on an endorsement in the race.”

    Oh give me a break….

  6. C’mon, Silence. You know there are literally . . . one’s of people who are awaiting his endorsement before deciding what to do.

    In fairness to him, though, he’s probably doing the more decent thing than just flat saying that he’s just not endorsing Obama (which *would* be a story. Pointless, but still a story.).

  9. Don, you do know that there’s more than one black woman in this world, right? I mean, I know the reality of it might be a little unsettling for you, but really . . .

  10. MB – o you know where my practice is located? Most of my patients are black, and we get along just fine, they are just people.

    I don’t like bitter white women with a sense of entitlement any more than I like Mrs. Obama. Its not race, its an intense personal dislike for her attitudes toward this country and her lack of respect for anyone with a different opinion, and all that has come through in her previous appearances.

    She has all the annoying personality flaws of Hillary writ large.

    So, don’t try the race card with me. It doesn’t stick.

  13. Goodness, gracious. Whatever was Mark Warner thinking about with that keynote address? It’s lovely to think about a post-partisan world, but as far as I can see, Democrat and Republican still matter in this election.

    Your quotation from Tip O’Neill in your header appears to be something Warner is taking seriously – the speech sounded as though the focus was more on getting Warner elected than Obama. It just felt a little strange. I’ll be interested in your view of it.
