I say next year we have a DU gathering at YearlyKos |
|
I was so excited to read about the happenings at YearlyKos mostly thanks to the rantings of that falafal lunatic Bill O'Really.

2. I'd like to see it come to Los Angeles. Then I could go, too. |
|
Would love to meet some other brothers and sisters of DU! We SHOULD caucus or whatever else you wanna call it. Hell, we're more than 100-thousand strong. That oughta count for something.

12. That's a great idea also. I wish the Democratic Convention would be |
|
going there next year. That would have been an awfully a nice way to stick it to the bush-lovers, not to mention how it would have helped the area's economy.

6. Some of us tried to post video segments here....but there wasn't much interest. |
|
For those of us who couldn't go it was a way to be there. Josh Marshall did a good job, also. If the new Netroots Convention is held in Philly next year...I will be there!
8 or 9 DU'ers attended this years and an :applause: to them.

7. I sometimes get the feeling that a lot of DUers don't like DailyKos |
|
But as much as we may hate to admit it, his website has much more of an impact than this one does.

8. it's not that I don't like it, I just find it difficult to navigate |
|
I've tried going over there a couple times but really don't understand how it's set up and don't have the patience to learn since DU is so easy and the good dKos stuff gets linked over there any way
I'd be up for a DU meetup at the next convention :shrug:

10. Lynne, ya shoulda been there ! |
|
It was my rookie year and it was fabulous! I'll definitely go next year, wherever it may be located, or whoever the Dem nom is at that point.
I met several fellow Kos commenters/lurkers, this wasn't just about the A-list of bloggy world, it was for every political junkie who cares about making a difference.
Shaking the Presidential hand - Priceless.
Oh and cash bars set up every 30 feet - DU Priceless :evilgrin:

13. Definitely -- next year it will be called Netroots Nation |
|
and I hope a lot of DUers go. I had a great time, and found plenty of people who at most only lurk at DailyKos. This thing is bigger than one site, but is about the liberal blogosphere.
