PUMA Conference Live Blogging Thread [Updated 4x]

I wasn't able to attend the conference, but several PUMAs I know are prowling around D.C. this weekend and live blogging between PUMA events. I'll be updating this thread throughout the weekend as updates come in.

[Update 1] Ripped from the Confluence, Not Your Sweetie is live blogging from the PUMA Conference this weekend. Here is her first in D.C. post. She has new posts up. Keep an eye on her blog for her updates.

[Update 2] Riverdaughter at The Confluence is attending the PUMA Conference, but is squeezing in time for a Cocktail Party At The Scratching Post. Also on site, PUMA Pac leader, Darragh Murphy is hosting her Meet Me In Denver blogtalk radio show from the conference. The show started at 9PM ET, but you can catch it any time.

[Update 3] This update from Alegre in the comments:

Just Got Back From Conf.  (4.00 / 1)
Spent a lot of time talking with Michele Thomas, who's working 24/7 with delegates and some volunteers to bring aboard enough delegates to get that nominating petition ready for Hillary to sign off on.

Guys that video from SimoFish got the attention of a lot of delegates - I've got a gut feeling they're going to get the 300 and then some but we have GOT to keep hammering away at this - laser focus on Denver.

Between now and the 27th we have but one goal - to get Hillary on the ballot and convince the Supers and the other deleages to back the one candidate who WILL beat John McCain in the GE.

Nothing else matters between now and the convention IMHO.

Superdelegates - CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW?

Alegre also has a post up at the Corner with more details of her conference experience.

[Update 4] Gary, a Confluence contributor, shares his conference experience while on the road. He has some great info for PUMAs regarding the upcoming convention in Denver.

Ballot and delegates (0.00 / 0)
Alegre, I'm glad you were able to attend the conference. Thanks for reporting back to those of us not able to attend. Yes, our priority is to get Hillary on the ballot and get enough superdelegates to support the stronger candidate who can win the general election, Hillary Clinton!
