Biden, Durbin, and then Obama

posted by on August 28 at 18:29 PM

Joe Biden just got a huge, flag-waving welcome from the crowd. He’s either giving his own (unscheduled) speech or introducing Sen. Richard Durbin, who will introduce Obama.

The stadium is mostly full now, flashes popping all around the bowl, mini-American-flags in every third hand, dusk settling over Denver, and protective snipers standing atop the Inveso Field sign, dark little figures silhouetted beneath a giant white bucking bronco.

Those slice-of-the-country rubes were just tremendous -- especially the North Carolina woman who kept saying "I cain't do it" as people cheered. I want her as my aunt so we can chain-smoke together.

Nice detail, about the top of the stadium.
