Okay, this is finally it for the Netroots Nation photos: Darcy Burner’s closing keynote address. For those of you who want to relive the whole thing, my complete NN09 gallery is here.

Entry Filed under: Labor, Netroots Nation, People, Photoblogging, Rabid LambsThree 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).

I just barely caught Don Siegelman on the DOJ accountability panel, who had to leave early to catch a flight.

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.

Entry Filed under: Netroots Nation, People, Photoblogging, Rabid LambsIn which I make all the panelists hate me:
I. Love. This. Photo.
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.

DFA’s Arshad Hasan and SEIU’s Matt Browner Hamlin.
Darcy and Adam Lambert/clammyc. I don’t have any pictures of him playing with his mic, alas.

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.

Entry Filed under: Netroots Nation, People, Photoblogging, Rabid LambsAnd 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.

That’s nothing – wait’ll I post the one of Arlen Specter mooning us.

Howard can gesture with two hands…
Or one hand. He’s multitalented.

Entry Filed under: Netroots Nation, People, Photoblogging, Rabid LambsDebra Bowen has very fast hands. They just kind of flash up out of nowhere, gesture for a split-second, and disappear again. If the CA Secretary Of State thing doesn’t work out, she could totally go into mixed martial arts ultimate fighting or something.

Hellooooo!
(Maybe I’m biased because I took it, but I think this is the best Digby photo ever)
I like the arched eyebrow.
Dave Johnson gesticulating while the mic protects Monica Sanchez’s identity.
Digby and Bill Scher pondering.
Dave Johnson and the mystery woman again.
Economics is very close to Dave’s heart.
Up next: Opening keynote speakers. Chuck Rocha, Raven Brooks, Judd Legum, Debra Bowen, Simon Rosenberg, John Fetterman, Dan Onorato, Brad Miller, and I might have more Bill Clinton.

Entry Filed under: Netroots Nation, People, Photoblogging, Rabid LambsOne of the catch-22s of trying to take pictures of panelists and speakers is that they’re usually at their most animated and interesting and gesture-y when they’re speaking… but they’re also moving their mouths to shape words, and while it’s not really visible to the naked eye, when the camera freezes them, you can get some fairly unflattering results. That’s why I check out the panelists who aren’t speaking, hoping to catch someone reacting or fidgeting interestingly, or just looking thoughtful.
None of that applies to this panel more than any other – I just thought it worth mentioning, especially since this post is mostly reaction shots.
Right about now I’m thinking it might be a good time to stand up and get a higher camera angle…
Dave Johnson again.
I think this is my favorite Monica Sanchez photo.
I, um, really liked Monica’s hair. Photographically speaking, I mean.

Ah, there’s a smile.
Monica speaks, Bill and Digby listen.

Entry Filed under: Netroots Nation, People, Photoblogging, Rabid LambsTechnically, the panel wasn’t so much about economics as how to talk about economics. And don’t ask me why some pictures are in color and some are in black & white. I decide on a case-by-case basis, and it usually depends on how which version delineates lines and shapes better, whether the color adds anything to the photo, and which version I did a better job of processing on.
Digby is a total sweetheart. Spork incident and I wandered over to her table after the closing keynote, and she was very friendly and generous with her time.
Bill Scher embarrasses Digby with effusive and well-deserved praise.
Bill Scher, moderating.
I liked the light gradient on the wall over there. Also, that is totally Bill Scher’s go-to gesture.
