I don’t know what connection there is between the DNC and this group, but I can understand the bad juju vibes. Kind of the reason I can’t imagine ever going to Netroots Nation, to be honest, although I’ve met a few women involved in that who might persuade me otherwise as time goes on.

I was disappointed in how the process was done through the DNC, that said, it’s hard for me to have faith in the real belief of a Big Tent when all are not welcome.

Watching what has been happening does not exactly inspire one to believe that diversity is really appreciated. Blind obedience has never been one of my fortes.

Thank YOU for doing that work. I know this sounds so corny and I know Bill knows this (because I’ve written it before and tell him) but the life-devotion to community organizing and work inspires as well as helps so many people – and makes me feel just this side of guilty when I think about how I want to be better in my work-life integration of all the things I SAY mean something to me but feel I’m not doing enough.

Can’t wait to meet you at BlogHer.
