We have plenty of photos and video from yesterday's Massachusetts State Democratic Convention to share over the next few days, but for now, here's a bit of the evening before.
Senator Kerry flew back to Massachusetts after spending the morning in DC to vote on cloture for the climate change bill, which the Republicans blocked once again. Looks like the evening turned out much better though, as he was able to spend some time with MA convention delegates and make his case for another term. I guess he was pretty convincing, as he won the endorsement of the Massachusetts Democratic Party in a walk, with 78% of the delegates voting to back his run.
I did get to grab a minute with the Senator, just long enough to exchange pleasantries, but it's always nice to see John Kerry and thank him for the work he does for all of us. Both venues were packed with people trying to get a bit of his time, and there's only one of him to go around. I'll have to come up with a complaint or a request for next time, It seems to be the one thing that keeps him in one spot for more than a minute or two.
More from the convention in the next day or three. Hope you enjoy these few clips.
