Sunday Preview

I know that Zennie has yet to post a lot of our Saturday recap (and there's some great stuff for y'all to see), but I thought I'd go ahead and give you a preview of what we'll be covering for you today. Here's a snapshot of what our day should look like:

9:00 AM Press credential distribution begins
Young Democrats National Committee Meeting

10:00 AM Convention Kick-off Press Briefing with Nancy Pelosi, Kathleen Sebelius, Atlanta Mayor Shirley Franklin, and TX State Senator Leticia Van de Putte

11:30 AM Credentials Committee Meeting to discuss, among other things, the seating of delegates

12:30 PM Western Round-up (press avail) with Janet Napolitano, Ken Salazar, etc.

2:00 PM Interfaith Gathering

9:00 PM Young Democrats Kick-off Party

Today looks like our lightest day, which will hopefully give us all a chance to catch up on some much needed rest before the Convention kicks off in earnest tomorrow.

The Democratic National Convention taking its Spanish speaking audience seriously

For the first time, a national political party's convention will be streamed live, on line, in Spanish. The DNCC will simulcast live, gavel-to-gavel coverage in Spanish of the 2008 Democratic National Convention at DemConvention.com, facilitated by Comcast Corporation. As part of the DNCC's historic blogging initiative, of which this blog is a part, the Convention will also be covered by several bloggers who speak daily to the Hispanic community, including VivirLatino, USAmérica Vota'08, Yanqui Mike Buenos Aires Argentina, and HispanicTips.com. For full details or to read the DNCC's press release in Spanish, visit DemConvention.com.
