THe action starts at Netroots Nation the minute you walk into the Hotel.  I met Troutfishing last night... one of Carnacki's fellow scholarship winners and who undoubtedly is one of the most knowledgeable people I have ever met on the subject of the religious right and politics.  More on that later. What really surprised me is that he is Carnacki's roomate here at the convention and their room is right down the hall from me.  Of course we are on the 13th floor which for some odd reason fits Carnacki to a tee.

The Howard Dean speech should be available on video later tonight.  As soon as it comes up I will post a link.  The Governor was in Crawford this morning as part of the Register for Change project that he has started.   The bus is really cool and they had a crowd of qt least 100 in Crawford that are ready for change too.Of course the biggest change will occur when George and Laura move home and vacate the White House for Barack Obama and his wife. 

As usual the Governor gave an inspirational speech and brought us all up to speed about the Register for Change campaign.  You can learn all about that at the Register for Change website.  In the meantime here is a slideshow with some of my pictures from the event.  I will discuss the caucuses I attended today later tonight.
