You stated: "No more money is going to be raised for the DNC than would have happened anyway."
I'm pointing out that the proffered reason they changed venue was to accommodate more people, and thus raise more money. As a matter of fact, no other reason was offered, in particular none of the ones you advance. Unless you have insider knowledge or seen a different announcement?
- argumentum 13y agoI meant it in the sense that PG writes about Washington DC here: http://www.paulgraham.com/cities.html http://www.paulgraham.com/cities.html In DC the message seems to be that the most important thing is who you know. You want to be an insider. In practice this seems to work much as in LA. There's an A List and you want to be on it or close to those who are. The only difference is how the A List is selected. And even that is not that different. That's simply how Washington works .. influence is their currency.
