15. Good comments (your blog)...especially about the "Q & A" session.....
Edited on Wed Dec-08-04 03:05 PM by KoKo01
It seemed to me I was seeing an emergence of a little bit of a power struggle there in the Black Caucus. I felt Conyers was being challenged behind the scenes by those with "more energy." I also felt the panelists "deferred" to Jackson, Sr. which might mean something. Fascinating juggling going on there between Conyers and others politically...to me it seemed, anyway.

I got vibes we were seeing the start of a "New Movement" for Voting Rights in America and Jesse and others want to either control it or allow the younger players to get their start in it. Most impressive Jesse Jackson jr., Major Owens, NY and Bobby Scott, Va. They seemed to be very energetic. Not as impressed with Mel Watt (my NC Rep).

Bonifaz was EXCELLENT and so was COBB (made me think about going Green)

Anyway, I could have done without the "Q&A" folks....
