Are you going to YearlyKos? Would you be interested in helping organize regional caucuses there?
kid oakland asked me to see who from Connecticut is going to YearlyKos and would be interested in helping out. Unfortunately, I don’t think I can make it to YearlyKos this year.

We would have done much better had Herseth’s GOP opponent won, right?
It used to be easier to answer this because times weren’t so black-and-white partisan–you could count on a Lincoln Chafee, say, to vote with the Dems very frequently. But not any more.

I honestly don’t know what I’d do in that situation.
