Republican Convention 2009 about to convene

We are 15 minutes away from the 2009 Republican Party of Virginia Convention at the Richmond Coliseum, and excitement is building as delegates file in to their seats. Music is playing, media is milling around the floor as well as candidates. John Brownlee and David Foster have been here since 10:00 this morning, meeting and greeting folks throughout the Coliseum.

Rumors are of a fight on the floor for the rules as soon as the convention opens. We will wait to see if any drama unfolds at that time.

Bloggers Row is fantastic! We are left of the stage ... perfect seating to cover our Republican candidates. Jim Hoeft has a birds-eye view of the stage with his camera, microphone,and set-up. Greg Letiecq who blogs as Black Velvet Bruce Li has a stage set-up for interviews that is being utilized by candidates and others. O.P. Ditch and Tom Whitmore are on Bloggers Row doing last-minute touches.

We're about ready to begin....
