I don't think I ever met so many supporters of real health care reform with a public option as I did last night, when more than 100 DFA members joined a boisterous crowd of 2,500 people at Jim Moran's town hall at South Lakes High School in Reston.  DC for Democracy and DFA staff in VT worked hard to help make this event a success for reform supporters, as the Washington Post reported today.

DC4D volunteers Tizzy Giordano, Kathleen Mancini, Karen Rose, and Kristal Wortham gathered almost 200 signatures in support of the public option.  Most of these folks provided contact information that we will use to mobilize pressure on Senator Mark Warner.   I hope you join us on this campaign!

Share your stories about the town hall!  Some of us never made it inside and would love to hear!
