SORRY! Missed posting about Pgh. League of Young Voters Fall 2006 Candidate Forum which was last night. (I'm working on a big, last minute project for work, but if you read Froth Slosh B'Gosh blog -- and why wouldn't you? -- you saw it there.)

Wow. The Al Franken fundraiser for Jason Altmire, with special guest Luke Ravenstahl? Who knew his star was soaring so high?

Being 26 years old in Pittsburgh does make one rather unique.

Mayor Opie is a STAR, baby! Sometimes the boys in the back room even let him make special guest appearances all by himself -- as log as he promises not to sign any autographs, that is. ANY thing Mayor Opie signs must be pre-approved.

Altmire's really bringing in some top tier guests. His campaign seems to be hitting full stride.
