Inside the Pepsi Center

Michelle Obama was the star attraction on Monday night

as Hillary Clinton was on Tuesday night

Seats were full every night

Protests were numerous throughout convention week.

The Sunday march was seen by few

Randall Terry and his pro-life colleagues outside the
Colorado Convention Center were seen by many

The police were (almost) everywhere.

Throughout the week, clusters of police were
on the streets even when they had nothing to do.

Police kept CodePink from entering the hotel where Emily’s List
was holding its function. Founder Jodie Evans speaks to her group.

But they weren’t around the corner where pro
and anti- choicers battled it out on the streets
