Our intrepid reporter Jennifer Hsu, who is at the RNC for the The Takeaway
(a co-production of WNYC Radio and Public Radio
International in collaboration with the New York
Times, BBC World Service, and WGBH Radio Boston), sent us some pictures of the speaking floor that you’ll rarely see on television. Jen writes: “have you noticed the big images they display behind the Republican speakers? Something you probably can’t really notice on TV: they display these
odd photos during the speeches. Sarah Palin might be making a grand
declaration about U.S. foreign policy and suddenly, there’s Old Faithful
spouting.”

Palin.

Giuliani.

Huckabee.

“My photo of the Huckabee image is too small….but it’s really odd. A half-deserted parking lot. I’m dying to know what McCain will have behind him.”

We are too, Jenn!

UPDATE: McCain got a Junior High School. From intrepid reporter Hsu:

“This one is almost as weird as Huckabee’s parking lot…. AND this
isn’t actually a photo. McCain got special treatment: This image is
actually a looping video. I realized this when all of a sudden I saw a
tiny figure walking up to the entrance of the school!”
