The Democratic National Convention in Denver enters its second day today. Yesterday, rumors of a planned protest near the Denver Mint began to spread through the media.

Minnesota Public Radio News Cut blogger Bob Collins observed that law enforcement -- and the media -- quickly outnumbered the protesters.

Collins has covered a number of national political conventions over the years and brings a unique perspective to this year's party gatherings. He talked with Morning Edition host Cathy Wurzer from Denver.
