ROMNEY INSULTS, WRITES OFF HALF THE COUNTRY
Behind closed doors with a group of his wealthy donors, Mitt Romney disdainfully insults and writes off half of the country. As a candidate for President of the United States, Mitt Romney shockingly declared to a group of wealthy donors that nearly half of the American people – 47 percent – view themselves as “victims,” entitled to handouts, and unwilling to take “personal responsibility” for their lives. It’s hard to be president of all the people when you write off half of them. Please see Mother Jones’ exclusive video of Mitt Romney’s behind closed door remarks. But here are the facts on the Americans Romney dismisses – an overwhelmingly majority of whom are seniors, working families, students or people with disabilities.Read More »ROMNEY INSULTS, WRITES OFF HALF THE COUNTRY

DPVA Steering Committee Meets – 53 Days to Election
The Democratic Party of Virginia held a very substantive Steering Committee meeting last night, focused primarily on the tasks necessary over the next 53 days to elect Barack Obama, Tim Kaine, and our Congressional candidates. The Committee also voted to recommend to the full Central Committee that the Party chose its 2013 nominees for Governor, Lt. Governor, and Atty. General by primary, and oppose this fall’s constitutional amendment regarding eminent domain. The full Central Committee meeting this morning. Some highlights of last night’s meeting.Read More »DPVA Steering Committee Meets – 53 Days to Election
DNC Communications Update 9/10/12 – #DNC2012 Edition
I’ll be doing some additional posts on the convention shortly, as well as on this weekend’s DPVA meetings.
#DNC2012 Actions, Schedule
I’ve been to five conventions, but I have never seen the party so unified, enthusiastic, and positive about putting forth our candidate and message. From the business perspective, the Convention adopted the Credentials, Rules, and Platform Committee Reports, and elected officers. I posted the platform yesterday and will post the Rules and Credentials, but there is nothing controversial. Delegates signed the pettition to nominate President Obama. I am looking forward to another exciting day. Again, thanks to DemConWatch, here’s today’s schedule (complete schedule below). Highlights will include Bill Clinton’s nomination speech for President Obama, Convention Chair Mayor Antonio R. Villaraigosa, Elizabeth Warren, and Barney Frank and the Roll Call. I don’t know about venue plans for tomorrow – still planning on Panther Stadium and hopefully the rain will end today. (BTW, Politico picked up my recent post re the credentials committee, here.)Read More »#DNC2012 Actions, Schedule
Platform and Tuesday Schedule, #DNC2012
Thanks to Matt at DemConWatch, here is the proposed platform and the Tuesday schedule. There will be pre-convention caucus meetings in the morning and afternoon, (and a lunch or reception or two), but the session starts at 5 pm. The first major business is adoption of Credentials, Rules, and Platform reports. Then there will be a Jimmy Carter video and speeches. Starting at 10 pm, the convention will hear from Md. Gov. Martin O’Malley, Keynoter San Antonio Mayor Julian Castro, and First Lady Michelle Obama. The Convention adjourns at 11, to be followed by a party or two. Full schedule below
