The vermin protesters are just rehearsing now. The demonstrations and violence will reach a crescendo Thursday night during President Bush's acceptance speech. They'll do anything to overshadow the president and, by Thursday, the vermin will be whipped into a frenzy. They sorely hope for a repeat of the 1968 Democrat Convention riots.
No doubt. The first couple of days will give them an idea of what to expect from the police and MSG security. President Bush is undoubtedly the main target for their disruptions. They'd like nothing better than to upstage him.
I'll be immensely surprised if the week ends with nothing more than a few elbows thrown.
