As has already been chronicled by thousands of others, many of us were trapped in the Purple Tunnel of Doom on Tuesday. I got in line at 6:30 am and gave up around 11:30 when I was outside the purple gate but it was closed.

So, I missed the entire show. I'm not too bummed out, but I still want to see it!

The main purpose of this diary is to ask for High Definition video resources of the inauguration.

Despite the fact that mother has always been a Democrat and, to my knowledge, has never supported a Republican presidential candidate in her life, she started getting mail from the RNC a few months ago.

The letters they send are generally hilarious in nature, talking about radical liberal gay-adopting, tax raising, baby-killer Democrats and what not.

The latest one I actually found to be quite frank and hopefully I'm reading it the right way. If the RNC has created a form letter like this, things must be going much more poorly than it appears.

The Register for Change Bus came to my hometown of Anderson, South Carolina today! It wasn't a scheduled stop with Howard Dean, it was just the bus driver and one DNC staffer on their way to an official bus stop next week in NC. They just came from Georgia last week.

This is the same town that is represented by Sen. Kevin Bryant in the SC Senate. The guy who posted this picture on his personal blog recently:

The bus stopped off at Royal Baptist Church and was outside to greet the congregation when they got out of their service. Most everybody was registered, but we added a few new registrations and passed out lots of Obama stuff.

The bus then went up to Ryan's Steakhouse (buffet style) and we registered and talked with voters who were going in to eat their Sunday lunch.

Lots of pics! Words can't describe how cool this bus is in person!

Last friday, my Senator in the South Carolina State Senate, Kevin Bryant (R-Anderson) posted a ridiculous picture to his campaign blog. He's getting a lot of media play out of it, mostly negative.

It got picked up by The Hill, Wonkette, and The Huffington Post and made it's way all the way up to MSNBC yesterday. The local NBC & CBS affiliates are going to have stories on tonight's news.

The South Carolina Democratic Convention will be held this weekend, May 2nd-3rd in Columbia. We get to send 54 delegates to Denver from SC.

Other business at the convention includes electing DNC committeemen.

One of the current DNC committeemen, Waring Howe Jr, is running for re-election to his post. Mr. Howe, as a current DNC member and superdelegate, has endorsed Barack Obama, but I have heard from a good authority that he has been calling Obama headquarters in Chicago and telling them that he will switch to Hillary Clinton if other candidates for the new term of the DNC committeeman don't drop out.

I've been lurking on dKos now for a few years, but I finally registered an account a few weeks ago. I signed up because I'm a Democrat in South Carolina, and I thought I might have a few things to say about the race for our party's nomination.

I'm writing my first diary to explain the direct effect on my county party of dragging this nomination fight out for the next few weeks. Hillary Clinton's insistence on taking this to Pennsylvania has caused direct harm to efforts to organize my county party.
