Day 7
7:01 PM ET.

I haven’t blogged much in the past day or two as I’ve been deeply immersed in the getting the new website up. We’ve still got more features to go as well as some new graphics and layout, but I’m pretty happy with what we’ve done so far. For all you Safari users, I know there’s a bug with the layout of the Recent Episodes and I’m working on it. I’d be remiss if I didn’t thank Dylan Kuhn for his wonderful GeoMashup plugin that makes this whole thing possible. Hopefully I didn’t destroy too much in hacking it to work on our site.

We just did a good interview with CT State Democratic Party Chair Nancy DiNardo. She gave us a good outline of the state of Connecticut politics that will add some color to our interviews with Dianne Farrell (running in the CT 4th) and as-of-yet-undetermined member of Team Lamont. Here are the boys with Nancy. Sadly I forgot to take photos at Farrell’s office as I was too busy with the video camera. PoliticsTV should be getting their first tape tomorrow.

Now a night of work and taking advantage of the hospitality of friends of friends. Expect to hear our second PA episode later tonight.

Day 7
4:31 PM ET.

The DoubleSpeak van rolls on and we’re slowlyh creeping towards New England. We just did an interview with Diane Farrell who’s running against Chris Shays in CT-04. She seems very genuine and down to earth.

Bush was in her district today raising money for Connecticut Republicans so it was a good day for us to be there. She did a press conference which we attended and then we did a brief pull-aside after she answered questions from the media.

We’re headed to New Haven now to interview Nancy DiNardo, Chairwoman for the CT Dems. We are sort of in limbo at the moment because we haven’t heard back from her on an exact location. Hope we don’t get screwed…

Lots of BMWs and Mercedes on the road…ah, Connecticut.

More later….
