After much hassle, I’m at the Republican Convention (traffic issues). I parked a few blocks away and walked in. There were some protesters, but not too many. I didn’t grab any video because I was preserving battery until I knew if I would have an opportunity to charge. I do, so I’ll probably go out there in a while and get some video.
The convention organizers were friendly and helpful. Because I came to the convention late, they had already pretty much finished all of the registration stuff, so I appreciate them going through extra effort to get me in.
I’ve met up with Sean Hackbarth, who seems happy as a pig in slop.
The lineup tonight is great. Here’re the highlights:

I’m going to try to get some interviews with Wisconsin folks too.
