Party Crasher

Posted by on September 19 at 20:47 PM

Party Crasher phones in from the Montlake Alehouse:

… which is where the Drinking Liberally people were. Bill Sherman had his campaign party here as well as folks from I-88. The I-88 people have stuffed the bar full of elementary-school kids—is that a subclause to the initiative?—and there are children running around everywhere.

I heard Sherman apologizing for having his event here. He said to one of the Drinking Liberally people: “Dude, it was your room.” Some of the Liberal Drinkers were unhappy and felt like Sherman’s double-booking was a tactic intended to co-opt Drinking Liberally’s youthful, motivated crowd. Apparently, this is the place to be. Somebody just arrived from Pure’s party at Piecora’s, saying it was “dead.”

The children are munching on nachos. There’s one little girl spinning another little girl around like a helicopter. I was at the Frye today going to the Henry Darger exhibit and this scene is really freaking me out. It’s like the Vivian Girls in the realm of the Democrats…

DrinkingLiberally's "youthful, motivated crowd"? Well, half right, unless there's been a huge change tonight from all the DLs I've gone to.

"Youthful" it ain't.
