Hope you guys have a great time! It's very cool you are there.

Talk about having an inside track to our convention!

Yay!

I wonder of some higher-up told Blitzer, "You need to do more grilling" and he wasn't aware it has a meaning in journalism.

Enjoy it guys. Thanks for the update. Looking forward to Michelle Obama's speech tonight. And really interested in SA Mayor Castro's comments.

can't wait till tonight.....Great job guys....

at the corner of Sardis and Providence, there's a Fresh Market there that makes croissants that are worth the drive from Florida. That was always one of my favorite things to do when visiting my dad in Charlotte.

Of course it's been 10+ years since I visited and 26+ since I lived there so things might have changed.


I remember a pretty decent head shop near there too...closer to town though...

I will wave from here (my living room) if I see you in the audience.

Have fun!

Way more than I have ever learned about what goes on at a convention than I ever learned from the mainstream media.

I'm loving this stuff

Great photos, and I LOVE what you did here, pinboy3niner! We also need the squirrel, the US gymnastics girl, and that cop with the pepper spray!

Love this photo chronicle of the road to the DNC!

He'll be wearing overalls and a red plaid shirt, no shoes and a straw hat, with a stem of hay in his mouth.

Y'know, dressing like a southerner to blend in.

I can tell you're suffering, so let me throw in my unfailing support.

I wasn't very pumped up for the convention, no tv so i was just going to follow it here at DU...

and now i get better coverage than anyone!!!!!


omg - they fed you and gave you a table space!
you are officially media!
that's so cool!!!!


(as i prepare to return to J-school in the spring, you guys are definitely getting me jazzed!)


keep up the great work and FUN! Love the pics, especially the vortex!

evidently the press is quite unhappy.

Next time! Thank you for all the updates guys. This is like Disneyland for political junkies and it's great getting the DU perspective.

When we were there last night it surprised me to see it, it wasn't there last time I was there. So I asked the suit at the door how long it had been the CNN Grill and he said since Friday. They must carry that sign around in their trunk....

Just wonderin'.

Welcome to Charlotte from a native Charlottean

It's better in the fall...

Love the updates

... There are indeed many small, "rural" beaches around, especially up the NC way.

And south of Myrtle Beach are the Brookgreen Gardens & Hunington Beach State Park. Both well worth a stroll. The gardens, full of (a lot of deco) sculpture is really beautiful in the spring when azaleas are blooming.

So, yeah.... c'mon down!

is just north of Myrtle across the NC state line in a small community named Calabash!

Happy as heck for you two to be there.
