INSTANT TEA

A vote for Mike Gravel is … wait, he’s not even on the ballot

February 25th, 2008

Tonight we’ll be partying with the LGBT folks from the Clinton and Obama campaigns at S4. But tomorrow I’ll be interviewing Mike Gravel, the former senator from Alaska and the only Democratic presidential candidate still in the race who’s come out in favor of gay marriage. Of course, Gravel’s not really IN the race for the party’s nomination, and he doesn’t even appear on the ballot in Texas, but don’t try telling him that. Learn more about Gravel in this week’s Soundout.

Also, as a reminder, tonight’s town hall meeting begins at 7 p.m. at S4 and is open to the public. In addition to the Clinton and Obama people, it will feature the national executive director of Stonewall Democrats. The Obama camp plans an afterparty at Havana beginning at about 9 p.m., while Clinton’s big gay Dallas shindig will be a week from today, Monday, March 3, at S4.
