C-SPAN Now: Democracy In Action...DNC Platform Meetings

[KharmaTrain]

It ain't sexy, no food fights (I hope)...but this is how the Democratic party does its thing, and is a rare open opportunity for us to sit in.

Want to really see where the party stands on your issues? This is where to tune in...and looks like a real issues-oriented panel.

1. Watching it now.

2. The Roll Call Was Quite A Mix

I can see O'Reilly & Faux Noise watching this with licks chopping. They'll get a cornicopia of things to distort and lie about in the days/weeks ahead.

I was going to say I wish the Repugnicans would do the same...but they do. Usually this happens a week or two before the convention. The fun ones are the independent parties...the 2000 Reform party was a hoot. There were the Buchanan people vs. the Perotistas...and a few radicals thrown in.

I'm seeing some very familiar faces...Eleanor Holmes-Norton, Jesse Jackson III, Kate Mickelman (sp??), Ann Lewis and many others. Lots of great people coming together to take this country back.

4. I heard her call the name Magic Johnson?

Isn't he a basketball player? Or maybe it was Maggie Johnson. Sure sounded like Magic to me.

3. I'll have to watch it online, my kids won't let me turn off Pokemon. *lol*
