Second City Blogging Posted by Moira Whelan

Heading to YKos bright and early tomorrow, and wanted to take a minute to highlight the Democracy Arsenal talent that will be there. Both Lorelei Kelly and Suzanne Nossel will be on panels, and AJ Rossmiller who blogs over at Americablog and recently out-ed himself as part of the "strategic class" and a fellow with the National Security Network, will be chairing a panel. (AJ, you'll always be a dirty hippie to me.) I will not be on a panel, but will make sure to pass on any comments or embarrassing moments encountered by these folks.

Also, let me take the opportunity to remind all conference attendees that there are other parts of Illinois, not just Chicago. I proudly come from that patch of blue just across the river from St. Louis--St. Clair County. Belleville, Illinois to you, Bellevegas to locals. Home to Jay Farrar.  Often in the  shadow of Chicago, I thought my hometown needed a shout out.
