Update: Ben in comments searched AI Chris Daughtry and found that he is also at the Dem convention on 8/26. Sorry for the error.


So, who's got the better convention entertainers - the Democrats or Republicans?

Here's some of the entertainers in and around the conventions for both parties (I can learn to like country for a week, but the bad part of Van Halen? I dunno.):



Democratic Convention Republican Convention
Kanye West Chris Daughtry (American Idol)
Wyclef Jean LeAnn Rimes
N.E.R.D Sammy Hagar
James Taylor Gretchen Wilson
Tony Bennett Smash Mouth
John Legend Beach Boys
Idina Menzel (Wicked) John Rich (Big and Rich)
Black Eyed Peas Cowboy Troy
Willie Nelson Styx
Melissa Ethridge The Charlie Daniels Band
Rage Against the Machine

This is a nice way to go into the convention. The McCain folks are raising expectations in saying that Obama/Biden will come out of the convention 15% up in the polls. From Sarah Simmons laptop to God's mobile, but this is the poll that counts.

The 50 or so PUMA bloggers that haven't shut their doors over failed conspiracy theories have their Denver schedule posted! Air fare, lodging, food and the RV paid for by unsuspecting donors who thought they were buying a documentary on the scandalous primary, help for themselves to get to Denver, or paying down Hillary's debt. The trip has most PUMA convinced that somehow this little band of bitters will somehow, by their overwhelming presence and shear will, convince all the delegates to turn tail and vote for Hillary on the first ballot thus ending Obama's chance at nomination. Good luck with that. Roar.

Our New Approach to Comments

In an effort to encourage the same level of civil dialogue among Politics Daily’s readers that we expect of our writers – a “civilogue,” to use the term coined by PD’s Jeffrey Weiss – we are requiring commenters to use their AOL or AIM screen names to submit a comment, and we are reading all comments before publishing them. Personal attacks (on writers, other readers, Nancy Pelosi, George W. Bush, or anyone at all) and comments that are not productive additions to the conversation will not be published, period, to make room for a discussion among those with ideas to kick around. Please read our Help and Feedback section for more info.
