du'er kelly westlund hits the airwaves

#t=12

and btw, at the event that i did here in chicago, kelly had many good things to say about du.
she had already had several encounters with folks from du. she said repeatedly ran into very well informed voters on the trail, and when she asked how they were so up on things, the answer was often- i read du.

take a bow folks.
WE are making change.

now, do you have any change? kelly needs cash to keep this on the air.

i have told her several times that i think she is having too darned much fun. she loves talking to intelligent folks.
she had a blast at my house.

maybe we can get her back to do a live blog again. i would like to have her talk about the mountain top removal mine that walker got $700,000 for.

Westlund is a great replacement for our current former-reality-tv-show-host. And she'd begin to fill Dave Obey's stalwart shoes fighting for us actual people.

me too.
funder was so super fun. big surprise- actually snagged a couple of volunteers. some neighbors have a home up there, and usually go up in the fall. they are actually gonna go up early so they can canvas/volunteer. had no idea that would happen.
