A member of the Capitol Crowd? If not, why fool? Join up and network away and get invited to happy hour and shit. If you work in the Capitol, lobby or otherwise are responsible for cutting ordinary citizens out of the political process you, too, should be a member!
I'm a member, thanks for the goading Pinks, but at $200 a year, you should make her pay for advertising.
It's all about the Benjamins.
Uh... I have advertised on Pink Dome in the past. Now I pay Charlie and his crew with beer and wine.
Thanks Pink Dome for mentioning the site!
(Site is free for staff by the way)
imasuit ... i will miss you!
No, thanks.
I went to one of their events. And though I ran a state legislative race last cycle and work for another elected who is not a state legislator, I was treated as sub-human. I sat at a table and chatted up some folks, to which the first question out of their mouths was "who do YOU work for?" and when the response was someone other than a Senator or a Rep., the folks got up and walked away from the table.
Nice.
Sorry you were treated badly. The events are meant for everyone with a connection to the Capitol, even past connections. Oh well... I can't teach those young 'uns manners, I guess.
You mean it only costs hundreds of dollars to hang out with earnest, well-meaning and ass-kissing squares? Sign me up!
Well... I don't mind being called earnest and well meaning, but I leave the ass kissing to Pink Dome.
For Pete's sakes, we need some more earnest and well meaning around the Capitol this session.
Meh, I haven't bothered to either. I don't need them to drink and socialize
