Ready to party

Barack Obama supporters in Berks County and the Lehigh Valley will be joining their counterparts here in Denver tonight in watching him accept the Democrats' nomination for president. There are convention-watching parties planned for around the region, including Allentown, Bethlehem, Kutztown, and Reading. Obama will take the stage in front of more than 75,000 people packed into INVESCO Field in Denver. The Obama campaign shifted the venue for the final night of the convention to allow for the larger audience.
