thanks to grantcart that has put in a lot of time and think into this, it just may be possible - but we need tons of people to login to Barack's site to get this going.

check out this thread for details on how to make this happen.

grantcart, I dont mean to take any of your thunder, just thought that a new headline would make more interest - it's such a fabulous idea I feel I had to do more to get it more attention.

love ya!

Democratic congressional candidate and other local Democrats in your area?


Would you be interested if the simulcast contained a direct feed that bypassed the MSM and included events that were unlikely to be televised?

5. Senator Obama just said on CNN that they" are spending a lot of time looking at the convention
with a particular view on how to use it to organize at the grass roots"

I just have a feeling this is going to fly, grantcart.
the campaign is just too smart to let this one go.

10. I'll watch it at home
I live in the boonies and the closest theatre is over 20 miles. What I would love is a live mIRC chat during the speech like DU did during the Kerry debates. Watch the speech and share it online with other DUers!

Can we look into doing that?

13. I just want someone other than fucking FAUX Noize running the fucking cameras
I'm fine with watching it on my own TV, but I don't want to be at the mercy of those sons of bitches deciding they have to interrupt Obama's speech for "breaking news" of some goddamned spoiled rich blonde kid or Britney Spears' latest psychotic episode. Or worse than that, whatever dumb thing Chimp or McLoon is doing at the time.
