Hhhmmmm, they're going to do the Pledge of Allegiance, huh? Think they'll leave the "under God" part in?

Check your access provider; if you've got high-speed access from Comcast, AOL, BellSouth, or SBC/Yahoo, then you have free access to streaming gavel-to-gavel coverage from ABC's new digital/internet channel, ABC News Now.

Otherwise, gavel-to-gavel coverage is available streamed from MSNBC and C-Span.

I'll post links as I come across 'em.
