Featuring a performance by Bruce Hornsby

Of course you know when I say us, I don't mean me in particular.  I'm a $100 donor, not a co-host like Tim Kaine (oh yeah, he'll be there too!) or anything.  It just sounded better than writing - "Come and join them" or "Come and join me" - you know?  But I'm sure a great time will be had by all!  What is better than a night out without the kidlets (I love em' but it is nice to not worry about snot on the back of your shirt for one evening, right?)for the specific purpose of getting to talk politics and hang out with other progressives trying their best to make a change?!?  Outta control. 

I'm very excited also, as a woman, as a mom, as a reproductive healthcare advocate, and as a citizen of this state and of this country, heck, as a citizen of the world...to hear some more of her thoughts and ideas on our future and what her platforms and causes will be as first lady.  I've heard she has an interest in teen pregnancy.  Wow - would that dovetail nicely with what family planning clinics like Planned Parenthood are already hard at work doing - trying to reduce unintended pregnancies through education and prevention.  And with the change in leadership that is sure to come with her husband as President..well, .I just get vaclempt thinking about it ;-)
