Isn't this kinda like what Ariana Huffington did 4 years ago? Hold her own venue, nearby but not part of the convention? And some other misfits took part in her "party"....but I can't remember who.
Yes. I do remember Arianna's boyfriend, Bill Maher attended along with her. At least, that year we didn't know that he considered the Christian religion the same as voodoo and "reading chicken entrails" as he told Larry King Alive the other night.
