"Live blogging" the conventions

So here's the deal:  my one true talents is typing fast.  So what I did today during the IA GOP and Demo State Conventions was sit with my fingers poised over the laptop keypad as the major players at each event spoke (Vander Plaats, Nussle, Vilsack, Judge, Culver).  The previous posts are not verbatim, but pretty close.  It would be akin to looking at my notes.  Just thought I'd share with the on-line crew.  Also today I happened to hear four potential GOP candidates of the future, and a couple of blog posts are about those guys.  Finally, Steve King said some things that really got the crowd going, so I did go back and what is in quotes from King is the actual transcript of his remarks.
