Notes from Charlie Lindahl and other Kucinich supporters attending the Democratic National Convention in Boston
Democratic Action Center :: Majority Parties
Welcome to the DCCC's Majority Party center! Thanks to the help of hundreds of grassroots volunteers, we've already won all three special elections this year and now only need a gain of 12 seats to win a Democratic majority in Congress.
We know that when grassroots volunteers take small actions for something they believe in, Democrats win. But we can only do it together.
As recorded by Democracy Now, an audio recording of Michael Moore in Boston
This was recorded outside a hotel in Cambridge where he spoke inside and then came out to talk to people from the balcony of the hotel.
I had a small part in the speech (my yell wasn't recorded) but he acknolwedged my comment ("Cheney", about 5 minutes into to the speech, where he pointed to me and said "I'm just the warmup act ... you're on next").

Great pix of the backbone going through the streets of Boston at this event.
Notice the large police presence ... absolutely peaceful demonstration, police were exceptionally courteous IMHO (In My Humble Opinion).
PDA - Progressive Democrats of America: new organization begun during the DNC.
From the main page:
We invite all concerned Democrats, our Green friends, the many others rightly critical of the Party's current politics and policies, and Mr. Nader himself, to join the movement to reclaim the Democratic Party for the American people.
