Let the blogging begin

We're here, and we're blogging.

The WisPolitics staff has arrived safely in La Crosse, and the straw poll is open.

Today's first big event is RNC Chair Michael Steele's media availability at 6:30 p.m. and his speech during the welcome reception at 7 p.m. WisPolitics will have coverage of both.
