Liberal in the Land of Conservative

I drove down to the cities yesterday to attend the MDE/MNPublius Happy Hour. As a relatively minor player in the blogosphere, I was not sure what to expect but was pleasantly surprised by the experience.

There were a couple friendly faces to be found in Chris Truscott and Two Putt Tommy who I have met a few times previously. In addition to these two, I was able to meet Gavin Sullivan (who has my inordinately large forehead posted on his site) from his eponymously named blog as well as Sean Broom from MNPublius and Jeff Rosenberg from Minnesota Campaign Report. Michael Brodkorb was extremely gracious and is not, as previously thought, the devil incarnate (just kidding, I never thought he was the devil but maybe one of his third cousins or something). In fact, I had a wonderful conversation with his father.

I am leaving other people out, but overall, I would have to say that the event was a rousing success. Now, back to your regularly scheduled partisanship...
