Events: Assigned Seating At Daily Show / Colbert Report Rally
Important event update: Word is out that seating at
at the Jon Stewart/Stephen Colbert rally in DC will be assigned by the event organizers.
In the "Million Moderates March" area will be Nick Lemann (see previous post), Jack Jennings, Matt Yglesias, and that's about it that I can think of.
On the "Keep Fear Alive" side will be folks like Davis Guggenheim, Diane Ravitch, and Mike Klonsky. Whitney Tilson will definitely be assigned to this side (sorry, man -- I know you applied to be with Stewart).
How about you? Colbert or Stewart? Let us know.
Funny you would forget Michelle "DC kids will be devastated without me" Rhee in the Keep Fear Alive group.

I'll be on the side to Restore Sanity...sitting next to Ravitch, who is trying to get people to return to sane educational practices. Unlike most people who make their living telling educators what to do, Diane Ravitch has demonstrated a willingness to rethink her assumptions and change her mind when confronted by evidence. For that, she is reviled by the NCLBers who can't give up on an idea that didn't work.

What if you are fearful that we can't restore sanity?
