Rob in Baltimore Blogging from The Principles Project Conference

In addition to blogging here on AMERICAblog (and a day job), I've been helping out on The Principles Project - a project to create A Declaration of Progressive Principles. Sponsored by 2020 Democrats, and involving 17 different partner groups including America Coming Together and Campaign for America's Future, The Principles Project created a space for these groups to join together and collectively write a one page statement of who we are as Progressives, what we believe and why we believe it.

The conversation has been going on over the past six weeks and has culminated in a final document voted on by over 1,100 individuals. Today and tomorrow in New York, participants and partner groups are in conference talking about how to take these principles and create concrete actions. I'll be posting on the conference blog for the next couple of days. You can check it out here.

UPDATE: I've been skipping text blogging and going for the photos. We've made a little QuickTime movie of this morning's photos. You can find it here. (QuickTime required)

(And yes, I'm doing all this on a Mac, with photos contributed from 4 different people's cameras, no driver updates needed, audio in from iTunes. Try THAT on a PC. :) )
