Aside from the fact it was a zoom meeting of almost 100 people mostly over 60, it was alright.

I should edit my title: What sort of personal demons drive a person to participate in party politics?

Yikes, zoom?

I only caucus’ed once to see what it was like. It was rough with the “olds” in person. I can’t imagine zoom.

“Mabel, you are on mute!”

It was tolerable but the people active in party mechanics are a bit out of touch in the way of the privileged. They make new people jump through quite a lot of hoops to get involved.

Bless their pointy little heads, I guess.
