Salt Valley Sally

Fri, Jan 27 08:43 AM CST

My county Democratic convention is less than six months away. As has recently been made public, I have not heretofore carried my share of the local political burden, and in my shame and innocence, I personally have no share in either praise or blame for my county party’s platform, a document of many pages. Like fictional detective Nero Wolf, the Lancaster County Democrats platform has an opinion about, well, everything.

Same can probably be said regarding the platforms of too many county and state and even perhaps the national Democratic parties. We long to and need to and must be the party of the Big Tent, but with the rising waters of Republican-driven apocalypse, our tent feels more like an ark, with Democrats, like Noah and Adam before him, naming off ALL the animals.

A New Face

Thu, Jan 19 12:13 PM CST

Hello Nebraska! This is my first Blog post since I started working for the NDP. With one busy week behind me in this position as Field Organizer, I thought now would be the best time to introduce myself and let all of you know where we are headed in our journey for the 2006 Elections.

I was born and raised in Falls City, Nebraska. I graduated from the University of Nebraska at Omaha in Public and Political Speech Communications. After graduation, I interned for U.S. Senator E. Benjamin Nelson’s Omaha District Office, as well as, for the Douglas County Election and Jury Commission. I am currently residing in Omaha.

There’s more…
