No Place Like It
Just finished my last event of the day, a press conference with Tom DeLay. It has been very interesting to see close and personal how the media and political figures relate to each other. Both Cornyn and DeLay treated the press much warmer than I expected. The media also treated the Senator and the Congressman with respect.

Attending and reporting from the convention has been a truly enjoyable (and exhausting) experience. But the time has come to head for home.

Before I do, I want to say a special thanks to those special individuals who helped subsidize this trip. I hope I have met every expectation you had for me, and that you feel that you received ample return for your investment. Thank you so much!

I'm just 3 hours away from a grass-roots meal. And that is something to get excited about.

King, I very much enjoyed your coverage.  My state’s convention is relatively small (its North Dakota, after all) and we rarely get any big-name speakers.  It was very interesting to get an insider’s take on a major event like this.

You did an excellent job.  I can’t believe you covered it as well as you did given your internet connection limitations.

Good work.

Thanks for the kind words, Rob!  I was sincerely hoping it was interesting to all readers. 

(My wife said she liked it, but she is obligated to say nice things to and about me.)
