Blogging the convention

If you have any interest in a modestly libertarian take on the Democratic convention, the Register staff is blogging it fairly extensively on our Orange Punch blog. My colleague Mark Landsbaum is doing most of the heavy lifting/writing since he's on the scene in Denver, but I'm interjecting comments from time to time, as is Steve Greenhut, who will be in St. Paul next week for the Republican convention. We had some fun in the comments section with some of our readers who think I'm more than a bit off-the-wall on this post. Check it out.

Register at the Democratic convention

I just finished commenting for the Register's opinion blog, Orange Punch, on Michelle Obama's speech -- I thought she was OK but could have closed the deal better -- and I would like to recommend it. My colleague Mark Landsbaum is in Denver with credentials and all that, and will be blogging as often as he can get to a computer. I'm watching things from the office, and Steve Greenhut kicks in comments too.
