RNC Delegates Prepare to Have Fun in N.Y.
Full Story: http://www.comcast.net/News/POLITICS//XML/1131_Presidential/8a8515f5-fb16-4329-b45e-f07c3cd5901e.html

NEW YORK - It's not exactly backbreaking work. Go to the Statue of Liberty. See "Aida" on Broadway. Shop at Bloomingdale's. Ride a tour boat around the island of Manhattan. And buy a funny hat.

"There was a time you did things all day long," said Sen. Pete Domenici, chairman of the New Mexico delegation to the Republican National Convention. Things like work, he means. "Then it moved in the direction of 'Why work all that time? We're just inventing work.'"

The 4,853 delegates and alternates to the convention aren't coming just for business. They're coming here for fun.

...

Jonathan Collard, a 25-year-old public affairs specialist from Albuquerque, N.M., couldn't be happier with the light workload. He's also pleased to be on the guest list for a Monday reception honoring the party's rising female stars.

"I'm single," said Collard. "I guess that could be a motivator."

If you think of fun as being totally unwelcome and harassed wherever you go!

Let me see... that would be "An Evening with Condoleezza Rice, Michelle Malkin and Ann Coulter"?

Oh, drats! I have an appointment to bang my head against a brick wall that night...
