Quick comments from DemFest

Posted by Aldon Hynes on June 20, 2005 - 6:45pm.
Okay. DemFest 2005 is over, as well as my follow up meetings on Monday. I am exhausted, but I took a nap this afternoon and am boardering on returning to being coherent. One person asked about any new insights I have about organizing from DemFest and how we can apply them to the DeStefano campaign. Well, it is a little premature to say. I've got a bunch of ideas I want to talk with the rest of the team about, as well as some ideas for other progressive groups in Connecticut. However, a few quick comments.

DemFest was FUN!. Molly Ivins talked about the importance of having fun when you are fighting the good progressive battle. I want to make sure that we continue to have fun in the DeStefano campaign.

DemFest was about getting people more involved, and I want to see how we can use the DeStefano campaign to get people more involved.

There were lots of exciting passionate candidates at Demfest. They were Texas candidates and while the DeStefano campaign probably shouldn't get involved with Texas politics, but I want to highlight a couple things. First and foremost, Fiona repeated her famous campaigning with Gov. Dean. First, she did a Christmas Card, then there was the famous kiss. Now, she has posed with Chairman Dean as illustrated in this blog entry.

She has also become very interested in David Van Os' campaign, and is releasing this campaign photo. She has also become very interested in Barbara Ann Radnofsky's campaign, is releasing this photo. When we get back we will see if she can fit Mayor DeStefano as well as other exciting Connecticut politicians into her busy schedule.

Whether you are talking about Gov. Dean, David Van Os, Barbara Ann Radnofsky, other great candidates at DemFest and beyond, or especially Mayor DeStefano, there are a some important commonalities. They are passionate, they are exciting, they tell it like it is and they are full of hope. I want to make sure we keep that passionate, exciting, plain speaking hope vibrant in the DeStefano campaign.

Comments

I feel compelled to point out that Fiona's latest photo opp with Governor Dean occurred on stage in front of several thousand people. She seemed perfectly at home (or at least felt very safe in Howard's arms!), and sees it as training for when she runs for Congress! She is anxious to set up some photos with Mayor DeStefano to help further his public image.

Also - Demfest was great great fun as Aldon said. There were some terrific training sessions and interesting forums. I encourage every active progressive reading this to consider attending next year!
