Slog - Comments on Cocktails and Cash http://slog.thestranger.com/2007/08/cocktails_and_cash I'm two hours ahead, so it's cocktail hour here at YearlyKos in Chicago (as the man in the background of this photo clearly knows). Foreground: Darcy Burner, who wasn't drinking (yet) when I ran into her. Why is she here? First answer: "This is a group of people who are working very hard to change the way politics works in this country." Really? Isn't the potential for future netroots fund-raising a big draw? "Certainly my presence isn't hurting in that regard," Burner told me....

(BTW, I've seen her at several events, but never with a drink in her hand. She keeps it cool.)

We almost went an entire day without a Darcy item.

Feels like 2005: Darcy, Darcy, Darcy!

...but Darcy Burner is HOT. I'd tap that like a keg at a frat party.

She's started to send me emails recommending other candidates. But I DON'T WANT EMAILS. Not from her. But there's no way to opt out, and opting out is a fucking criminal spamlord requirement. Makes me kind of angry just thinking about it.

All these "netroots" people are aggressive spammers.

Some of her male counterparts run with the same bad suit/jacket far too long.
