This one started at 9:30am. Bleah.
At least, this time, instead of some stupid no-food-or-drinks high school auditorium, the venue was the Washington State Convention Center which would have no such issues (and probably even a few in-house franchises ... which turned out to be true).
Also, this time around, I got to sit with
solarbird and
llachglin, trading snide remarks as the Day of Masochism unfolded.
I suppose my main conclusion is that, having now seen the process first-hand, I think I can now safely say that local/county party platforms are indeed good for something, i.e., assuming you can find sufficiently soft paper to print them on.
I guess I knew this already but there was something perversely fun about it nevertheless. And now the anal nutcase in me wants to pick up a copy of Robert's Rules of Order and actually read the bloody thing.
( ... No, really... )
