Blush for Baum! Come meet Terry, have some drinks, nibble some vittles, listen to some groovin' live music and get involved in this great opportunity to help build the Green Party! *Performing Live:* *The Dead Weight of You (acoustic set) Bianca Daniel* *No Cover* ==================== There is more than one progressive in the race for mayor. This is a good thing since Greens led the way for years to get Ranked Choice Voting. Now these campaigns will be able to be in friendly competition and help each other by encouraging supporters to rank the other as a 2nd choice and thus increasing the chances that in the end we will finally have a truly progressive mayor!!

If it turns out in the end that we have a crypto-fascist movement and the only thing standing between us and fascism is Barack Obama, then we have to put our foot on the brake.
