Boston: Nothing Short of Amazing
We're here! It's amazing. Beyond amazing. This may be the coolest thing I've done in years. I'm running around like a maniac, so here's a brief recap....starting with the plane ride.
So, a few minutes after I sat down in my seat, Colorado's Governor Owens boarded and sat a few rows behind me. (Yes, coach for both of us today.) What on earth is he dong attending the Democratic Convention? Well...of course I asked him. (Note, I've met him before at television studios where we had sequential hit times, so it's not like I walked up to him cold.)
Gov. Owens' answer was quite interesting: He has been selected to be the media opposition to the Dems Monday night. I asked which channel and he responded "all of them." Then he said that Gov. George Pataki is doing Tuesday night and Rudy Guiliani is doing Wednesday night. Mass Gov. Romney is doing Thursday night. I figure if they're doing all networks the media isn't paying them and they've been sent by the higher ups of the Republican party.
