I saw the grandfather bottlefeeding the baby during his daughter's
speech.  There were several cuts to the baby and back.  The bottle
appeared to have water in it.  It was clear in color.   I'm pretty sure
it was water.

I kept thinking someone needs to tell this mom that babies that young
don't need water.  But it could be a breastfed baby who's mom was buying
time.  Anyone have any clues?

Another observation I made was that there were so many children at the
convention.  I don't ever remember that many children present at any
convention. I'm waiting to see how the democrates handle the family
value issue.
