I worked for Sen. Ben Nelson (D-NE) 18 years ago when he won his first primary for Governor by 2 votes. Apparently he or one of his staff remembers and we got 2 tickets to the Inauguration of President Obama!
Doesn't that sound great? PRESIDENT OBAMA!!!!
Anyway - It looks like I might be borrowing a friend's 24' RV and driving to DC. Anybody have suggestions where the best place to park and stay will be? My other option is to drive my MINI, but then I'll have to find lodging. In neither case do I have a lot of spare $$$.
I was in DC this summer for a week so I've got a little idea of how to get around the area. I know to keep out of some of those Georgetown side streets when driving a 24' tank. Any suggestions will be appreciated.
I just realized, we can go to the Netroots Nation party, too! WooHoo!
And for all you diary police who only want chapter-long dissertations on "significant issues", take it elsewhere. This is the payoff for all the years of working for Democrats since the 70's.
Maybe we can make this an open thread to help everybody who doesn't yet know where they're staying on Jan. 19-20.
