Thanks to our guest bloggers for their insights into the political conventions

Matt Rogers, a Democrat, and Derek Walter, a Republican, served as guest bloggers from the recent political conventions. Props for the local team.

I enjoyed reading their posts, and thank them for sending their on-the-spot observations back home.

We've had guest bloggers from time to time and will continue to use them when events determine the need for their specific expertise. We are always looking for suggestions on this blog and urge you to leave a comment on this post if you think someone would make a good guest blogger for Opinion Talk.

Thanks again to Matt and Derek.
