As for the Democratic National Convention, it will be the first one I skip since 1960.

Let's be honest: It has no mystery, no fights, and it's in Charlotte, N.C., which is about as far off the beaten path - or easy airplane connections - as you can get.

...kind of a “nobody asked me...” Jimmy Cannon column.

Oh my, how I loved them. Didn't always agree, but very enjoyable to read on the after-work subway trip home.
