Whoopie--a town hall meeting that DIDN'T get disrupted!

[rocktivity]

The Democratic Alliance of Northwest Indiana (DANI) hosted a meeting with Rep. Pete Visclosky (D, IN-01), on Monday, Aug. 3, 6:30 PM. We invited the public and their written questions. It seems good to share with the Daily Kos readership some lessons we learned.

Bottom line:
• We had an orderly and productive meeting.
• No one stood up, shouted out and sat down.
• At no point was our Congressman or audience rattled.
• DANI accomplished its objective. We provided the public an opportunity to question our Congressman about Health Care and Clean Energy.
• Tea Baggers came out in force, but they failed to disrupt the meeting.
• Local reporters attended.

See what happens when you organize and don't back down--which is pretty much what THEY'RE doing? CUE THE VONAGE THEME!

:woohoo:

1. That's great! Seems good news doesn't sell though, by the lack of responses.

2. Congratulations are in order! It probably won't make the MSM, but it's good to hear.

I'm so sick of "NO!" I could scream.
