DFA Training & Jim Dean Interview

Today was the DFA training session that took place at Raritan Valley Community College and below are some photos from the event. I'd estimate about 100 people came out for the training, which continues tomorrow as well. Also, our very own Jay Lassiter had a chance to interview DFA president (and Howard Dean's brother) Jim Dean (not to be confused with the famous sausage entrepreneur). We'll have a podcast of the entire interview hopefully by Monday, but for now, here's a video clip of Jay asking Jim about the future of blogging.

That has to raise the old saw that politics is like making sausage? ;-)

The nom de plume has a long and distinguished history.

The Training Was Great But Just As Importantly.... (4.00 / 1)

...the threads of personal interaction and co-operation that are built in this kind of event will bear fruit for years.

We progressives need to ge to the point where we can offer these kinds of trainings on a quarterly basis IN EACH REGION of the State.

The red counties need to become blue and the blu ones need to become true blue (as in free of the grip of machine politics).
