Damn that Republican Convention looks mighty white on television. Fortunately our colleagues at City Pages, The Pitch's sister paper in Minneapolis, can provide a more behind-the-scenes perspective on their blog Elephants in the Room.

Today's highlights:

For anyone looking for irony in the nomination of Sarah Palin, don't bother searching any more. It was killed by a Baptist preacher.

A real-time report as Joe Lieberman kills the buzz, minute by agonizing minute.

Demonstrators chanting "We want peace!" before getting gassed. While you're there, don't miss this slideshow of Day 2, complete with the canceled Rage Against the Machine show.
