This weekend, downtown Austin will be swarming with more drunk idiots than usual when the Texas State Democratic Convention roles into town to swoon over how much they loves them some Obama and lament how they all live in Conservative Texas cities rather than the Liberal utopia of Austin.
I’m betting there will be some Hillary folks who aren’t in quite such a good mood though.
Which makes this email from the Texans for Obama campaign very interesting:
To help encourage party unity, we’re joining up with our Clinton friends to host a “Unity Pub Crawl” tonight to welcome statewide convention delegates to Austin. Both the Obama and Clinton campaigns are hosting parties at nearby bars on Red River Street, and the goal is to encourage Texas Democrats to intermingle and kick-start the unity process.
Great idea. Let’s mix a bunch of drunk and angry Hillary supporters with a bunch of drunk and gloating Obamaniacs.
I’m sure there will be some kind of kicking going on…I’m just not so sure it will be the “start of the unity process.”
Might be a fun time to venture downtown with my video camera this weekend.

I can almost smell the odor of alcohol, sweat, and patchouli oil.
If I need to see a freak show that badly, I’ll just go to the airport and watch a SFO flight deplane.
Robbie- it’s been a heated primary but I doubt there is much risk of many Democrats not voting for Obama. (Well, less risk than is suggested on the Republican side by the 25% protest votes against McCain in the final primaries …)
Yo, N2L: Remind yourself of your superiority complex the next time you’re tripping over yourself to condemn “liberal elitism”….
Yo, Preston, liberalism is a mental disorder, which is why I refer to them as self-annointed elites…big difference.
Really?
Well, it looks like over half the country plans on going mad this fall. I’m sure it will be a tremendous burden for you to carry that torch of sanity all by your lonesome.
N2L won’t be carrying the torch all by his lonesome. There are still a few of us left.
McCain is now about two feet into his six-foot grave:
More than a few. I even know some donks that aren’t liberals.
Oh yes…definitely get some pictures !
Sounds like a riot waiting to happen !
Yeah, the way Hillary laid into Obama- by endorsing him for President- I bet you can expect some real fireworks.
HAH!
That was quite an endorsement she gave Ol’B-HO.
Did you watch the speech? There is no way to spin it as a qualified endorsement. And her supporters loved it.
Oh yeah, I watched it, as ridiculous as it was.
I mean, an endorsement by this woman is a good thing?
Time for an eye rinse.
High brow attacks on her looks and your opinion of her in general are pretty irrelevant to the post’s assertion that her supporters and Obama’s are headed for some sort of brawl on the streets of Austin.
Ohhhhh….so now you wish to return to the topic?
/circle jerk
Two Cheers for Obama.
/but not three
Yasmin Alibhai-Brown: Calling Obama black is an insult to his mother.
Now where have we heard someone say something along these lines?
Oh…I remember, it was me.
