9. No matter what blackmail the evil Hillary forces try on you, DON'T CHANGE YOUR VOTE

;-)

[mrreowwr_kittty]

27. I went to NV and TX to help with the caucuses.

Plus canvassed and phonebanked my butt off here in AZ. No one is flipping me! ;)

[Divernan]

40. But you can fill us in on any arm-twisting "encouragements"they attempt, OK?

[loveangelc]

10. I MAY BE GOING TOO!!!!!

My university is offering a course called Election 2008 and one of the requirements is that you attend the convention. I'm thinking of doing it.

[Kittycat]

15. Where do I enroll?

If I was you, I would get in that class before it filled up. That could be a once in a lifetime opportunity.

[loveangelc]

30. Yup, I emailed the teacher about it just now. They just sent an email out about the new course.

[mrreowwr_kittty]

19. Awesome! Definitely take advantage of it if you can.

Find out if your state party offers assistance to people for the air fare/hotel.

[thevoiceofreason]

11. Are you a super? Are you declared?

[mrreowwr_kittty]

16. Pledged for Obama.

[thevoiceofreason]

21. It's deep. It's long. And I don't think it's playable.

Good for you!!!

[hfojvt]

20. I hope you are rich, or saving your money

somebody told me it costs about $5-10,000 for the travel, hotel, food, etc.

[mrreowwr_kittty]

24. They're helping us delegates out a little bit with the costs.

My b/f is going with me and we're deciding between flying and driving right now.

[LaStrega]

28. Congrats!

This will be the first year, since 1984, that I'm not a delegate.

There were so many young people at our caucus, I thought let one of them experience it.

:toast:

[mrreowwr_kittty]

29. This is my first one.

Some of the people I'm going with are "veterans" and have been telling me what to expect.

[LaStrega]

If you haven't spent time in Denver it has a viable downtown
with great places to eat, drink and listen to live music, within
walking distances and even has a free bus that gets you down to Lodo.
