Live blogging General Convention 2006

I’m in a very pleasant lounge on the second floor of the Crown Plaza Hotel. Round tables, comfortable chairs, lots of light to annoy the camera crews. There are three news cameras so far. In fact, many press people are here, but it is a smaller conference than I thought.

VGR is working the room. He is very likeable. He smiles warmly and looks people in the eye.

The Integrity announcer lets us know that they are going to delay the briefing for about 15 minutes. Why you ask? To give the ECUSA press conference time to end. I could have stayed at the ECUSA conference and blogged the whole thing.

It sounded like it was getting interesting. Lesson learned. Press conferences do wait for the press. If you hang with the gaggle you will likely get there on time even if you’re late. Oh well, I needed a space next to an outlet anyway so maybe it is a good thing. Mike Daley is here, having rushed over from the ECUSA press conference too. the rest!
