Denver's convention center won't be the site of the Democratic Party's convention

Yes, the Democratic Party's convention will begin Aug. 25 in Denver. And, yes, Denver has a downtown convention center that was expanded just four years ago at a cost of $300 million. But, if you're a Democratic delegate to the party's nominating convention, don't expect to be spending any time at the city's convention center because the gala is going to be held at the Pepsi Center. That's where the Nuggets play basketball and the Avalanche play hockey. Interesting.

By the way, many of Sen. Hillary Rodham Clinton's supporters, especially those from New York, may be thinking about the Supreme Court while in Denver. That's because the Supreme Court is the name of a fine tavern located in the Sheraton Hotel that will be the headquarters for the New York delegation.
