Who's going to the DNC Rules & Bylaws meeting this weekend?

Just curious who on both sides of the candidate divide is going to attend or protest the DNC rules and bylaws committee meeting this weekend? Let's try to keep this civil...I'm just curious how many other DUers will be there. So say whether you live in DC or are coming from out of town, whether you are attending the meeting or protesting, and who you support.

Obama supporters, if anyone is planning to protest, please note that the campaign has asked us not to protest. There will be some tickets to the meeting given away on Saturday morning, but if you don't get one, the directive from Chicago is to stand down and not create a scene that makes the party look hopelessly divided. DC for Obama has several voter registration drives going on in the area and people who don't get into the meeting are encouraged to do that instead.

olive branches.

I know someone posted earlier about driving down from Boston.

It should be interesting, to say the least. I think Beacool and elixir said they'd be here...hopefully I'll get to meet them.

One of the "grassroots organizers" of Hillary's fake protest this weekend at the DNC rules committee meeting (the one deciding what to do with FL and MI), just sent this email out to a lot of the wrong people in DC:

We have Fantastic News!

As you know, our efforts to present a unified front this weekend on Sat, May 31 at the DNC meeting has proven to be quite successful…in fact, we have now an approximate 10,000 marchers. The marchers will be coming from across the country and they aren't just Clinton supporters. For a unified showing will be Obama, McCain, Clinton and even a few Huckabee supporters who will rally together in Washington DC.

How did a grass roots group of politically inexperienced organizers get an overwhelming response of thousands of supporters…supporters that cross partisan lines for the unified message: All Voices Heard, All Votes Matter?

But I'm going back home to San Diego for my brother's wedding. Otherwise, I might drive by or have a cup of coffee (a large latte to sip, preferably, because that's how we roll) far off in the distance. Believe you me, I wouldn't want to add any flavor to the crowd. I'm sure the Pots and Pans Posse will be there in full force.

Democrats protesting democrats - fucking pathetic.

I'll be at the Flying Elephant in Carlsbad Saturday night. Matt Hensley from Flogging Molly owns the joint. It's swank.

On a positive note, I've lost 35 lbs all due to the lack of real mexican food on the East Coast.

Nope, not me...I'll be sitting comfortably in my house outside of DC watching the proceedings on TV...

It's tough but I think it would look worse for him and for the party if both sides were out there protesting. Go get involved with a voter registration drive instead this weekend. Part of me would rather do that than attend the meeting but my mom is really excited about the meeting (she's coming down from NJ).

And set up a stand & sell Brillo Pads.

Thanks for all the hard work you've done organizing the bloggers.

I wonder if we'll meet Beacool and elixir, who are coming down for this. Not sure why I want to meet Clinton protesters but I just think it would be cool to see people I talk to on here every day come to life.

I'm sure they will do the right thing without me there and besides, I need the tan....

Oh, I guess I'll catch a repeat on C-Span or CNN.

All day coverage is what Wolfie Blitzer promised -- not looking forward to it, really. There has been so much bobbing and weaving already.

It's like a 15 round fight in the 16th round... without any decision.

Cordially,

Radio Lady

Have fun with your grandkids.
