County Convention

March 29, 2008 Stephanie Leary 6 Comments

Just got home about 20 minutes ago. I have to say, I really can’t recommend spending eight hours in an elementary school gym with your fellow citizens, no matter how similar your politics might be. If the Texas Democratic Women hadn’t been funding a scholarship by selling bottled water, and if a local lawyer hadn’t brought in dozens of pizzas at the six-hour mark, there would have been bloodshed.

It was educational. I’ll give it that.
