I know there are a lot of tight races out there, but wanted to let y'all know that Mayor Bill White is having a live webcast in about 15 minutes (12:30pm CT).

This is another way candidates can engage voters for GOTV on Election Day. Mayor White is a rising star for Texas Democrats. His landslide re-election today sets the stage for some big things in the future.

Complete disclosure. One of my good friends works for Amy Klobuchar, but I can also say my sister and husband in St. Paul wholeheartedly support Amy's campaign. We all know we need to keep this seat for the Dems. As many of you may know, Amy outraised Mark Kennedy (R) last quarter and many folks assumed she would not be able to match the money she raised last quarter. Well, they've raised $650k, more than they raised in 1Q.

Wesley Clark delivered the Democratic radio response today.

Today, America continues to face a national security challenge. As Democrats, we are resolved to meet that challenge and defend America from danger.
...Democrats stand for a strong foreign policy that uses all the tools at our disposal. Democrats want to expand America's active duty forces by 40,000 so we can effectively fight the war on terror.
Although our budget is tight, it should reflect our priorities and our priority is to our men and women in uniform.
This Memorial Day, the country will come together to honor those veterans who fell from the line, making the ultimate sacrifice for our country, those who fought and came home sadder and wiser, and those who were left behind. We are not just the beneficiaries of their bravery.
We are the stewards of their sacrifice.

I'm an Oakland A's fan and was just watching the pregame show. They start talking about Athletics Nation, which is a blog focused on the A's. Then lo and behold, I see Kos talking about sports and blogs, with Oakland Coliseum in the background.

I've always thought blogs and sports makes a lot of sense. Good to see the A's really embracing them. Check it out.

Amy Klobuchar, Hennepin County Attorney, raised $580,000 in the last quarter.

From the press release:

"Klobuchar's campaign raised more money than announced Republican candidate Mark Kennedy raised for the same reporting period, according to published reports."

Wow! This race is gonna be one of the key races in 2006, and it looks like there is at least one Democrat emerging as a viable opponent to Kennedy.

Last night at Slim's in San Francisco was "Barbara Boxer Rocks" night. You see, this evening was supposed to be a CD release party, but when the members of Flying Other Brothers Band saw Senator Boxer hold Condi Rice accountable during SOS confirmation hearings, they changed the evening into a night "to honor Barbara Boxer and her courage to stand up to Condoleezza Rice."

Other performers were: Boz Scaggs, Bob Weir (Grateful Dead), G.E. Smith, Country Joe McDonald, David Nelson, The Court and Spark, and David Jacobs-Strain.

The music was great, and of course, had a very progressive message and some not so kind words about the Bush Aministration. But from my perspective, Senator Boxer was the star. Senator Boxer was in attendance and had a great time. She spoke halfway through the concert. She said the right wing radicals love to intimidate, but that she was not gonna back down. Read More
