What do you think these Conventions are going to look like on TV? I think they're both going to be three-ring circuses, all brought to you by your favorite advertisers. They will throw so much at you in terms of numbers, polls, demographics, etc. you'll hardly be able to remember what the folks on stage said. But the number one commodity on TV will be endless pontificating bullshit, over and over and over. I'm sure the campaigns got their schedules all choreographed in both camps to have a perfect, glorious Convention, but with demonstrations, etc. afoot who knows what they're going to look like as the world's current events spring up. Media stars will be made, they always are. Yes it is a financial bonanza for the media, but isn't everything?

If things go as planned, this may end up being pretty much of a non-issue.

US troops 'to quit Iraq by 2011'
US combat troops could leave Iraq by 2011 under the terms of a deal awaiting approval by Iraq's parliament and presidency, an Iraqi official has said.
The draft security agreement also calls for US forces to withdraw from all Iraqi urban areas by June 2009.

I thought you might not have known that, but I was actually just responding to a previous post that said that those things don't matter except on tv for ratings. Sorry about your choking. The lesson here is never read posts here while eating or drinking. You may have saved countless lives in the future, and you are to be applauded for that.

Hey Rap
I noticed all that reading material. Are they all sitting on an open-air communal outhouse ? 'Cause, you know, sometimes you need a nice long book - like a dictionary - while you're waiting for things to happen.
