"Who is going to complain first that this had nothing to do with L.A.?" LOL! This has nothing to do with California! None of our state Dem reps can attend because a budget hasn't been passed yet. State Repubs will face the same fate next week during their convention if there's still no budget.

I won't complain this has anything to do with LA, but I will agree with another memebers sentiment: get a real camera! Thanks.

I'm not sure why they didn't open up the regular concessions at The Can (as we Denverites call the Pepsi Center) which are sometimes pretty good, like the cheesesteaks and the barbecue. I was there on Friday and saw the mediocre and expensive choices ($7 deli sandwiches, the $6.50 Buffalo dogs, $4 "snacks" - what would that be?) and was glad that I didn't have to eat any of that. There is better food available. Too bad they chose not to provide it.

Alright! Who is going to complain first that this had nothing to do with L.A.?
