Convention Coverage is a Failed Regime and Bloggers Have Their Credentials

I'm spending a lot of time this week just learning who the other bloggers are, maybe making a little face-book so I can recognize people like the Congresspeople from New Hampshire. This morning's reading includes a nice long chewy article by Jay Rosen about the social vs. actual purposes of conventions, and what blogs might have to add. Long. Worth it.

I hope to see the bloggers out there (at BOTH conventions) paying attention to the topics that get ignored by the newshandlers and arrangement specialists, out of a pathetic and trembling fear that something unscripted might happen.
