http://www.dems2004.org/site/pp.asp?c=luI2LaPYG&b=99034 gives a list of prohibited items.

Question: Can one be a delegate if one is physically challeneged? As in needing a cane, or crutches?

None of this stuff was a problem over the last 40 or 50 years, SFAIK. Why would delegates--The DELEGATES, fer chrisakes!--be prone to go bonkers, now?

jsr, if you fold a handkerchief properly, it'll function quite nicely as a baggie. Everybody thinks you're blowing your nose, but first you inhale...

(I first saw this in Hong Kong; a lovely young Chinese lady got her quick hit of heroin this way...)

Yeah, it seems he dislikes conventions (unless it is the RNC's). As witnessed by his lack of attendance to the NAACP conventions since 2000.

Heck, that's what I do. I got 2 bladders, i just fill one about 2/3's with water and the other about 1/3 with booze of some sort. I don't see how anyone could complain even if they did bother to check and see that I have a second tube hanging out. There's no glass or metal or anything I feel like leaving behind for that matter.

I sure do love my Camelbak. It has been to the top of many a hill with me. Now if only a certain someone would get me a pair of Leki trekking poles for my birthday.... :p

Chip, the odds are that the RNC will be about the same...

I wonder if they'll require Crayolas in lieu of Xtra-Fine ball point pens?
