Home folk on TV
State Rep. Mike Hubbard got some good face time on national television tonight at the Republican National Convention.
CNN’s camera cut to the floor as the GOP began its “roll call of the states,“ the procedure by which states dole out their delegates to nominate the party’s presidential candidate.
And there stood Hubbard, by virtue of his position as party chairman of the first of the 50 states in alphabetical order. But face time isn’t full coverage: As Hubbard did his duty, Wolf Blitzer talked right over him throughout the 20 to 25 seconds he was on screen.
Also, Alabama Attorney General Troy King was seen peeking his head right over Hubbard’s left shoulder.
