Do we know when his speech is scheduled to start?

It's a bit of a mystery, even here in Denver. But the start-times of the parties should give you some indication.

For those of us who are working during the start of things (during Dean and Richardson’s speeches), who has a good stream of everything? Without the stupid talking heads.

The only ONLY way to watch the conventions worth a damn is C-SPAN. and they stream all of it. the only interruptions are the occasional announcement of who is speaking (for radio audience). No commercials either.

While you Seattlites "celebrate" Obama in your all-white hoity-toidy neighborhoods, we in the 47th District Republicans will be having our picnic at Morrill Meadows Park on Kent East Hill.

I'd estimate 7:30 pm, so plan on arriving before 7 for the warmups.

I'll be at the Spitfire.

I was going to pray for muggers.

Better than preying on muggers.

Spitfire has been very good to me for political coverage. They played all of the MSNBC democratic primary debates there with the sound on in the main room. Great happy hour too.

Sadly I'm in Canada, Vancouver for the week without TV access. Bless you CPAN streaming feed, bless you.

Hey you MFs - you have taken my good name for your criminal purposes.

A picnic in the rain? What about the cake?

God - it is the Bush years all over.

There are a bunch of people congregating at the College Inn Pub at 40th and University Way NE to watch this as well. Speech is at 7pm pacific time.

An estimated 67% of presumed attendees are non-white, or, as poster John Bailo's familiars are perhaps accustomed to saying, "colored."

I will be at my apartment, where I don't have to jostle to get a good position in front of the TV and where the drinks and food are free.
