My favorite moment was... quote:
DENVER (AP) _ Barack Obama's chances of winning the White House won't be harmed by his home city's reputation for shady politics or his connections to a 1960s radical, Chicago Mayor Richard Daley said Tuesday. Daley predicted voters will elect the candidate with the best plan for creating jobs amid a faltering economy. ... "Go to New York. Go to Washington. Go to Philadelphia," Daley said. "All politics is rough and tumble." Politics didn't take up all of Daley's time. He also took a few minutes to visit an oxygen bar next to the AP's office at the Democratic convention. Putting a little tube in his nose, he sampled 92 percent pure oxygen infused with lavender (for relaxation) and then apple (health and happiness). "I feel good. We should get all the delegates to try this," he joked afterward.
