Man yesterday was crazy!

After the California breakfast we just hung out for a while until we ( I can’t reveal how) got delegate passes for the convention. God that was awesome. When we got them we ran to the convention for roll call only to find out California HAD PASSED! Read more »

Another Embedded Journalist at the Convention

(Editor’s Note: As further evidence of CC’s darn near sycophantic commitment to its readers — and, of course, in the interest of gender equity — we’ve added yet another embedded journalist at the Democratic National Convention. And, because of CC’s slavish devotion to fair and balanced reporting, negotiations are afoot to engage at least one correspondent for the Republican National Convention next week. Read more »
