Bloggers at the Republican Convention?
Not long ago we heard that the Democrats would be giving special privileges to webloggers to attend and report on their conviention. I recently got a forwarded email from a friend saying that Republicans are now doing the same thing.
Has anyone heard anything about this? Anything that would look like official confirmation?
If so I must say I'm envious of those webloggers who can make it. I'd do both conventions if I could. But it's big news if both major parties are allowing it, regardless.
* Update * Ah, looks like I wasn't the only one to see that email.
Indeed it is. I believe that Michele has petitioned the RNC to go to the convention in her home town of New York. I don't know if she has been accepted or not.
I received an e-mail this afternoon asking about my interest in blogging from the convention. The e-mail mentioned that the convention organizers were considering a central set-up for bloggers at Madison Square Garden. Very interesting stuff--too bad I won't be able to go--especially since the e-mail states that there will be a charge for bloggers interested in secruing a space (of course, if someone wants to sponsor me... ;)
perhaps I'll see you there. I got the e-mail too!
or whichever bloggers who show up... i intend to make it!
