Having slept on it, i don't know why i spaced and thought he'd spell his name all Hick-like as "Bo" instead of French Foreign Legion like "Beau" ...

.... though of course, with a brother named "Hunter," it should be spelled "Bow."

I missed Bill Clinton's speech last night, but caught the last part of Beau Biden's speech and all of Joe Biden's speech. Joe Biden was really good, although he seemed to get a little over excited toward the end, almost yelling, and had a few flubs.

I am planning to watch Obama's speech tonight, although it's more likely to be constantly interrupted by applause, which really annoys me.

There was an interesting article in this morning's USA Today "behind the scenes" of the Daily Show's DNC coverage.

Quote:

Forget Rock the Vote. Inside the Pepsi Center this week, the true rock stars are the correspondents of The Daily Show, besieged by politicos and press, posing for pictures and being filmed by fans as they film their fake news reports — or try to, anyway.

Full article.

Has anyone been watching their coverage? I have gotten out of the habit of watching, so I need to remember to tune in, probably for the day-after repeat at 8 PM.
