While we’re talking about anniversaries…

WE’VE MOVED! Democratic Convention Watch is now at http://www.DemocraticConventionWatch.com

I wrote below about how the GOP might end their convention on the 7th anniversary of 9/11.
Well, the Democrats have their own anniversary to deal with. The 2008 Democratic nominee will be giving his or her acceptance speech on August 28, 2008, which is one day before the 3rd anniversary of Hurricane Katrina hitting New Orleans.

There’s a discussion over at Daily Kos on whether the convention should be held in New Orleans. Opinion is split – this is going to be a tough decision for the DNC.

Update: Kos just started a front-page poll and discussion.
