Bryce Harper’s unforgettable phrase, “That’s a clown question, bro” is getting its own beer. Unfortunately, it will only be available in Denver.

Waters told the couple that he’s “preparing to write a book about his adventures of hitchhiking across America.”

In case you missed Friday’s special episode of The Daily Show, check out the video excerpt above to catch D.C. Council member Muriel Bowser (D-Ward 4) being interviewed by John Oliver on the floor of Invesco Field on Thursday night. Bowser’s short appearance begins around the 46 second mark. Oliver and his crew taped the segment shortly before Barack Obama gave his acceptance speech in Denver, and it appeared as though Bowser and several…

The experience of attending Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama’s acceptance speech at Invesco Field in Denver on Thursday night was, simply put, staggering. From the very long lines to board a shuttle bus, to the exponentially longer security lines to get inside the stadium, just the process of getting to your seat took about two hours. Once inside however, the effect of such an imposing, enormous arena having been turned into a political spectacle was…

WTOP’s Mark Plotkin was kind enough to invite DCist’s Sommer Mathis to appear on the Politics Program this morning to discuss the D.C. delegation’s role at the Democratic National Convention. Washington City Paper’s Mike DeBonis is also appearing on the show, and Sommer will join in at 10:30 a.m….

From left to right, Shadow Sen. Michael Brown, Dan Rather, Shadow Sen. Paul Strauss, Hayden Panettiere, Shadow Rep. Mike Panetta, and Melissa Fitzgerald. As promised, Dan Rather stopped by today’s voting rights luncheon hosted by D.C.’s shadow delegation in downtown Denver. The veteran journalist shook hands and posed for pictures, and though he didn’t make a speech to the crowd, he did answer a reporter’s question about D.C. voting rights by explaining that he…

I’m waiting for the luncheon to begin, and while I have yet to spot the actors scheduled to be here, Shadow Sen. Michael Brown says former CBS Evening News anchor Dan Rather might be on his way here as well. Rather and Brown know each other through a mutual friend, and the veteran newsman is a proponent of D.C. voting rights, according to Brown. The shadow senator said he couldn’t be sure Rather would make…

We’re heading over to a quickly thrown together luncheon hosted by the District’s shadow delegation (Shadow Sen. Michael Brown said it was coordinated over the course of four hours) that will apparently feature Hayden Panettiere of Heroes, some other yet unnamed actor who has appeared on The West Wing, and minor character actor David Keith, whose most recent major role was over 25 years ago, in An Officer and a Gentleman. Regularly readers will…

From left to right, William Washington, Lisa Femia, Vaniah Temple and Lamonte Pryor, winners of a voting rights youth essay contest who traveled to Denver to attend the DNC with the D.C. delegation. The youngest members of the District of Columbia’s contingent at the Democratic National Convention had to do more than be loyal Democratic Party stalwarts to gain access to the Pepsi Center — they had to put pen to paper to convince…

D.C. Del. Eleanor Holmes Norton read the District of Columbia’s nominating votes into the record in Mayor Adrian Fenty’s absence. Drama during the roll call! As head of the D.C. delegation, Mayor Adrian Fenty was supposed to be the one to read the District’s vote into the record at the Democratic National Convention — but Fenty didn’t turn up until at least 10 minutes after D.C. was called upon to cast its votes. D.C….
