From today's Hotline:
Daschle Didn't Want TV-Roadblocked South Dakotans To Watch Him Clapping For Kerry?Daschle is leaving the Dem Convo 7/28 to return to SD to campaign, "forcing him to miss" John Kerry's acceptance speech. Daschle spokesperson Todd Webster: "Senator Daschle has a vigorous convention schedule during which he will participate in a number of events. Thursday night will be appropriately focused on our next president, John Kerry." Daschle will address delegates 7/28, discussing "middle-class values and doing right by America." Sen. Barbara Mikulski (D-MD) "criticized the campaign in a private communication" 7/14 for mishandling the announcement by slighting many of the featured speakers who will take the podium later this month at the convention (Preston/Billings, Roll Call, 7/15).
