This morning Ben and I went to report life from the convention center in Des Moines. When we walked in Romney was being interviewed, with all five sons waiting beneath the platform. Then as we were on live Fred Thompson was getting ready to be interviewed by Fox and Friends only a couple of cameras away.

Ben and I are going to go back after lunch to work on editing and uploading video in the Google and Youtube lounge, and maybe more candidates will come and we can finally get a word from a candidate. The set-up in the convention center is pretty cool, with each stand up station just a few feet from the station (we were about 6 feet away from four ABC  stations. It was pretty sparse this morning, so it'll be interesting to see how busy it is later on today before the caucuses get under way.

I am a SMU student political reporter for FOX. I am a junior majoring in Political Science and Journalism at Southern Methodist University in Dallas, TX. I grew up in Tuscaloosa, AL. I've enjoyed doing some political reporting for SMU-TV and interning in Washington, D.C. in the past, and so I'm really excited about covering the Iowa caucus with three other SMU journalism students. The 2008 election should be pretty interesting, so be sure to check our updates on behind-the-scenes action at the 2008 Iowa caucus!
