Entry Filed under: Netroots Nation, People, PhotobloggingThree Amigos Edition, as Adam Bonin, Arshad Hasan, and Raven Brooks all came out on stage together.
First, Adam led the audience through a surprisingly charming rendition of Frere Jacques.
Then Raven explained some stuff.
And then Arshad rifled through his own wallet (not pictured).

Entry Filed under: Netroots Nation, People, Photoblogging, Rabid LambsOkay, I think this is the last of the convention center photos – next up, the closing keynote.
Pretty damn cool, as elevators go.
A nice empty corridor.
Close-up of the tubes and lights in the big hall.
The overpriced concession stand.
Umm… Ceiling thingy? Possibly the underside of the escalator.
Hey, look who beamed in! Uh, twice, apparently.

Entry Filed under: Netroots Nation, People, Photoblogging, Rabid LambsThere were some panels I just didn’t get a lot of photos of, due to either time or lighting constraints. Some photos from the campaign finance reform panel, and the “Building A 21st Century Economy” panel.
Professor Lawrence Lessig. He gave a fantastic presentation on our corrupt finance system and the need for public campaign financing, but the house lights never came back up afterward…
Dave Donnelly of the Public Campaign Action Fund.
Dave again. The low light makes his eyes look like they’re almost all pupil, which is either kinda cool or kinda scary.
SEIU Secretary-Treasurer Anna Burger, and economist Dean Baker.
Moderator Kevin Drum. Trivia: His old blog, Political Animal, was my introduction to the world of blogs and commenting. So you all have him to blame.
Dean Baker and NJ Governor John Corzine.

Darcy is overwhelmed. Actually, I think she was cracking up. Adam is only mildly amused.
Eden is skeptical.
Holy crap, Matt is going to leap over the table and beat me to death. And Arshad is no help at all.

For those of you new to this blog, I really like shadows.

I am fascinated by the upper reaches of the main halls.

OMG, Representative Jay Inslee has a microphone for a nose!
Oops, my bad, it was just an optical illusion – I was so eager to get the scoop that I forgot to check my facts. I would like to apologize to Congressman Inslee and his family, and to anyone else who might have been offended by my totally understandable mistake.

I suppose this could technically be considered a people photo…
I like the exposed structural elements.
A closer look at said elements.

Entry Filed under: Netroots Nation, Photoblogging, PittsburghAnd here is the other half of the not-on-the-stage-at-the-same-time showdown between Arlen Specter and Joe Sestak. Sestak’s manner was aggressive to the point of almost angry (he grabbed or poked Ari Melber’s arm a few times), and he flubbed his lines a few times. He was also rather spectacularly stumped by a question about how he would reach out to the Pennsylvania netroots.
I’m still voting for him, though.

Entry Filed under: Netroots Nation, People, Photoblogging, Pittsburgh/PA, Rabid LambsHey look, it’s my new *cough* Democratic senator, Arlen Specter! He actually made a very good case for himself, provided you don’t know anything about his actual legislative record.
Arlen looks out at the audience and wonders what he’s gotten himself into.
Reviewing his index cards.
Behold, he smiles!
If I blow this up all the way, I can almost read his index card, but it’s just a little too blurry. Phooey.
Arlen gestures very sincerely.

Entry Filed under: Netroots Nation, People, Photoblogging, Pittsburgh, Pittsburgh/PA, SpecterThe five of you who read my blog regularly know that all these people pictures I’ve been posting from Netroots Nation are totally out of character for me. I’m much more comfortable walking around taking pictures of the building itself. Like so:
Yes, I was taking pictures of the ceiling during the opening keynote ceremony.
The railing on the stage right before Bill Clinton appeared. Although I assume it looked pretty much the same after he appeared, too.
Chairs waiting for Mike Lux, Tanya Tarr, and Howard Dean.
This was on the other side from the main hall where the keynotes were. I guess it’s basically for storage and spare parts.
It looks a little bit like the inside of an alien spacecraft…

That’s nothing – wait’ll I post the one of Arlen Specter mooning us.
Howard’s not camera shy.
Howard can gesture with two hands…
Or one hand. He’s multitalented.
Mike Lux, Tanya Tarr, and some random guy’s ginormous head.
