BEST COVERAGE YET OF THE GOP MEETING IN NOLA

From Gambit's Blog of New Orleans:

When she entered the ballroom of the Riverside Hilton, the 3,000 or so people packed elbow-to-elbow in their banquet room chairs visibly stiffened; she brings an itchy electricity in her wake, a sort of restlessness that’s reflected in her speech, which is relentlessly upbeat but sort of lurches from topic to topic without transitions.

Truest comment:

Yep, the Republicans are definitely in town. Last night, for the first time in my life, I saw an orderly queue for the streetcar.

Also from Gambit, the video "Great Performances: I Am the World" by New York Magazine.




The coverage of the meeting by the two big local newspapers is somewhat lackluster.
