Convention Countdown: Demver!

Attention political junkies! An editor’s note:

I’m too cheap to send any of The Pitch‘s reporters to cover the Democratic National Convention in Denver — but thankfully I don’t need to, because our brilliant, insightful and witty colleagues at The Pitch‘s sister paper, Westword, are doing such a fabulous job of covering it themselves.

Over at Westword.com, the Demver blog is an up-close view of all the convention doings that could only be provided by reporters who know the city inside and out. Today, we recommend the “DNC Orientation Video: Because you can’t get drunk from hope alone.”

Also priceless: Cartoonist Kenny Be’s take on each state’s delegation. I’ll now leave you to find detailed descriptions of Kansas and Missouri’s here (or watch the slideshow here).
