So after a week of Republican?speech-making,?it's time for the Democrats to have their turn on the podium. But when will your favorite liberals and progressive be giving their remarks? The short answer is: no one really knows.

Despite bragging that this year's?Democratic?National?Convention?would be the "most open and accessible" ever, the party is refusing to publish a full schedule of speakers for this week's convention. The official website of the DNC will only announced each day's lineup at 10 p.m. the night before. So while we know President Clinton will be on the docket for Wednesday and Joe Biden and the President will?headline?on Thursday, we still don't know exactly when they will talk or who will be going on before them.

Some of the other speakers who have been announced but have not been given times yet are House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, Sen. John Kerry, Sen. Richard Durban, activist Sandra Fluke, Rep. Barney Frank, and Sen. Charles Schumer. The roll call of states, when the President will be formally nominated comes on Wednesday. Don't change the dial or you might you miss them!
