Recap video of CT delegation in Denver

Jen Just has put together a brief glimpse for us, to show what it was like to experience Denver with the CT delegation. Check it out:



This is a great song, too -- it's from John Legend and was created for the Obama campaign. Excellent!

We've been looking
for the world to change
if you feel the same
then go on and say it...

If you're out there
stand up and say it loud
if you're out there
tomorrow's starting now

Give 'Em Truth, Joe!

Joe Biden has a few words about the GOP's myopic view of America, "On jobs, on healthcare, on the environment -- on all the things that matter to the people in the neighborhoods I grew up in... they see something different than I see!"

Yup, "That's not stock photo keyword searching we can believe in"

This seems too unbelievable to be true. But. What else explains McCain's use of a backdrop image not of Walter Reed Army Medical Center, but Walter Reed Middle School in California?

From Talking Points Memo very early this morning/late last night:

...several readers have suggested that perhaps one of the tech geeks charged with setting up the audio/visual bells and whistles for the evening was tasked with getting pictures of Walter Reed Army Medical Center but goofed and got this instead. At first I thought, No, that's ridiculous. This is a major political party with big time professionals putting this together. Nothing is left to chance. I mean, is this the RNC or a scene out Spinal Tap...

Late update also from TPM:

Meanwhile, here's another fun wrinkle: It turns out that the building behind McCain was also used as the backdrop for Matt Santos' announcement of his presidential candidacy on The West Wing.

Check it out (and what? what? is he saying "there's no such thing as false hope" for real?):

Yes, but clearly Jimmy Smits knew it was a school, not an army hospital!

That about says it all, eh?

Really, do we need to read any further, when we wake up to a headline like this from #rnc08 in the New York Times?

Paper of record and all that. Heeeeeeeeee!

PS> Oh, but wait. There's more!


That one's the headline from Talking Points Memo this morning. They've got a fond look back at our Long Gone Joe, too. Gee, gosh golly!
