Americans for Prosperity-RightOnline-Sam Adams Alliance conference in Austin, Texas:

Eric Peterkofsky talking about reaching conservative youths through humor and new media. He creates Newsbusted, the humor arm of Newsbusters.

David Almacy speaking about all the ways to reach people with the conservative message through new media. David blogs at CapitalGig and was the internet guy for President Bush.

Soren Dayton teaching about more new media ideas. He’s a bright guy and blogs and edits at TheNEXTRight.

Kathleen McKinley aka RightWingSparkle, Danny Glover of Eyeblast.tv and the Media Research Center, and Dan Gainor, The Boone Pickens Fellow of the Business and Media Institute of the Media Research Center.

Eric Peterkofsky and Kathleen McKinley have lots of fun. Hey, Conservatives know how to party, too! We proved it.

Eating dinner with some of the most interesting people: John Hawkins of Right Wing News, Danny Glover, Kathleen McKinley, Steve Clouthier, Sean Hackbarth of The American Mind, Dan Gainor, Frank Maenza. (There are a couple guys at the end, who I didn’t get the opportunity to spend time with, if you know them, let me know!)

Americans For Prosperity Conference: Day 2

Saturday, July 19th, 2008

Having a great time. Check out these pictures. Today we’ve heard many awesome speakers including John Fund who gave stats for the reasons why Republicans shouldn’t give up. If liberals controlling every aspect of government isn’t motivating, I don’t know what is.

As an aside, the Kos convention is down the street, here in Austin and earlier this morning Al Gore was being booed and heckled by the true believers. Sigh. It’s amusing when they eat their own. Ha, it’s interesting though, there’s no mention of the hostility over at Kos.
