For most folks who are reading this blog the convention probably looks like one big pep rally and in essence it is. But there is more that takes place over the course of the week than just speeches. Caucus meetings, panel discussions and an occasional party here or there are all part of the fun. Ok, the parties are really very fun. Caucus meetings not so much!

Last night a bunch of us headed from the Pepsi Center over to the Planned Parenthood Bash where Ashley Judd and few other movie stars crashed the party. Ambassador Lauredo and I then went to a party hosted by Univision where they had this amazing salsa band. Only to end the night at a diner stuffed in a corner sitting a foot away from quite possibly the largest rap artist in the country. It took me twelve times to get his name right. I called my brother this morning to tell him I sat and talked with Pharell from N.E.R.D. and he about jumped through the phone. Apparently he is THE hottest thing in Rap right now and my coolness factor with my brother just sky rocketed.

There are lots of actors and muscians strolling around with a real sense of easiness. Hollywood is definitely in love with Barack!

I just finished our delegate breakfast Tuesday morning where our CFO Alex Sink and Senator Bill Nelson addressed our delegation. Barack's sister Maya stopped by as well. She was just with us in Tampa a few ago and really has a very charming and witty way about her.

I am heading over to the Pepsi Center for another sun filled day with a city full of Democrats..Ill Blog you later.
