Texas Democrats are lonely, sad and bitter people...can you blame them?

I think everyone on Slog is delighted you guys went and reported from Denver. It was great and helped put us in the moment.

Thank you.

Politics are messy, as proven by the reports I've received from folks there that echo your sentiments about the logistic nightmares and general lack of organization.

But, man. What an event. Nice report, Annie, and that photo of the streamers is awesome. Get some rest.

"I don't think I've ever been in a venue that big, and that crowded."

What?????? Never been to a Pink Floyd concert, or any arena Rawk concerts?????? C'mon!

Representative McDermott looks absolutely radiant.

When is he due?

Holy shit, did y'all hear how many people watched the speech? 38 million, maybe more!

With that mpreg beer belly, looks like McDermott could've benefited from that dance party if he'd joined in.

That IS pretty amazing, the ratings for last night...10 million MORE than what Shrub got 4 years ago. It's a good sign.

Eli looks like he might be smart-cute from behind. I might need to lay off of him a little

Great slogging you guys. Many thanks. I didn't make it past the second round of delegate selection and was glad to get at least a vicarious hit from your posts.

oh hey. It's that guy.

Jim McDermott is NOT a fan of feta cheese, let me tell you. He came into Cedars restaurant one time and bitched me out about about how I put too much feta in the tahini sauce, when there isn't any feta in it at all (we keep or sauce vegan).
So I became smug and told him that most American food is bland as ever, so I understood if our foreign cuisine was too much for him.

Where's Annie going?

My God that is an unflattering picture of Jim McDermott. His belly is bigger than the rest of his body combined. That man needs to find and get acquainted with a stairmaster.
