Just the last 25 minutes got recorded. It's rough but you will get the general idea of the tone and content. I spoke to the C-Span people who are at the convention and they told me they would probably be airing it this weekend if it was not live.

Don't just sit there. Go to My.BO and tell him what you think about Telecom Immunity in the FISA capitulation bill. Or if you don't know about this attack on your Constitutional Rights granted by the Bill of Rights then read Glen Greenwald.
UPDATE:
Congressional hearings on the 2002 Election Day phone jamming in New Hampshire have been scheduled for Wednesday.
Two men have pleaded guilty in the phone-jamming case, including former New Hampshire Republican Party executive director Charles McGee. Former Republican National Committee regional director James Tobin was convicted by a jury and acquitted on appeal. His case now sits in the First Circuit Court of Appeals.
New Hampshire Rep. Paul Hodes has been asked to testify about the case, and he plans to lay out what spokesman Mark Bergman called "unanswered questions," among them whether the White House was involved. Records produced during Tobin's trial showed he made nearly two dozen calls to the White House within a 15-hour period starting on Election Day, hours after the phone-jamming operation. - Concord Monitor
Jon Stewart has to explain (of course).
TPM has even more on this 6 year inquiry.
UPDATE II: "I cannot link the New Hampshire phone jamming scheme in any way to President George Bush's White House," Allen Raymond said at a joint hearing of two House Judiciary subcommittees. But Raymond said his training at the Republican National Committee and the National Republican Senatorial Committee told him that "unusual programs never saw the light of day without a thorough vetting by committee attorneys." - RAW
