Star-studded MoveOn rally in Philly! (Jessica Lange! Al Franken! More!)

[bbernardini]

A lovely evening of speakers, thanks to the folks at MoveOn. First up was Julia Stiles, followed by Vanessa Carlton. Stiles then introduced the surprise guest of the evening, Jessica Lange. She was followed by Al and Celeste Zappala, who recently spoke at the Philadelphia stop on the "Slacker Uprising Tour". (They lost their son in Iraq. I was close to tears when they spoke.) Finally, Jessica Lange introduced Al Franken, who was spectacular as always. He did his Cheney and Limbaugh impressions, as well as a round of "Flippity-Floppity".

So who was it I saw in the DU t-shirt? :)

1. Forgot to mention...one of the "CSI: Miami" cast was there as well!

We saw him in the lobby on our way out. I forget his character's name, though.

2. Jessica Lange, Al Franken

both native Minnesotans...I'm so proud.

3. Jessica mentioned Al's possible Senate run when she introduced him.

Wouldn't that be neat?
