| Spike Lee, Darryl Hannah, Dan Rather, Matt Modine...
The Big Tent is hot and stuffy. And, frankly, on Monday folks were a little cool. Today is completely different. Lots of camaraderie.
Ran into Cotton Mouth's Jeff Walters while getting accreditation to the Convention yesterday. Stand up guy, very cool. Walters and Cotton Mouth did a lot of work on the Travis Childers' special election victory this year...Cotton Mouth was denied state blog credentials, a decision that helped spur Matt's and my letter to the DNC protesting the state blogger selection process. Walters did get general press credentials to the Convention.
Markos Moulitsos is handing out and signing free copies of his new book, "Taking on the System: Rules for Radical Change in a Digital Era." Nice guy. Tho' that old dude whispering in his ear the whole time was weird.
I ran into George Lakoff yesterday at the Media Matters Lounge. I almost wet my pants and acted like a fanboy. Kind of embarrassing.
And, finally, check out the post I wrote for the UK Guardian's blog, "Comment is Free," on Montana's Swing Left. |
