A long travel day, nice to be home. Don’t know yet how it played on tv, but the Invesco stadium was an astonishing place to be in person.

One quick note. I hear the commentariat have been babbling on about the Greek columns behind Obama. Maybe somebody has already figured this one out — as I have noted previously it’s hard to keep up with the media babble when you’re in the center of the media storm — but the set behind Obama was clearly meant to invoke the White House, not Greek gods. There were windows and doors on the thing, for chrissakes.

Also: if the first three days of this convention just seemed like business as usual, leaving me with a sense of "why am I here" -- the final night made everything else worthwhile. I have to get some sleep and gather my thoughts, but it was a profound thing to witness, to be a part of. I hope that even half of that feeling was conveyed to the viewing audience.

My wrap up on all of this will probably be in the Advocate's print edition, and over at my own site. This whole thing has been a bit of an experiment; thanks to Andy Bromage for pushing it through, and thanks to all of you for paying any attention at all to my overwhelmed and sleep-deprived attempts to convey the strangeness of it all. See you in the funny pages ...
