The event will run 7:00-9:30 at 3017 Gates Road, NW, Washington, DC 20008, the home of Ronald Ginsberg. It is Eric's 49th birthday. If I did not have back to school night, not only would I be going, but I would be pestering everyone I can.
More below the fold.

This is a very important race for Democrats. At Eric's last DC fundraiser, Majority Leader Steny Hoyer was one of the sponsors and gave some major moolah.
I have known Eric since the first Fighting Dems event in DC more than two years ago, and have stayed in touch since. This is a quality guy whom we need in the House. I know there are lots of demands on our time and our dollars, but please consider this event and this candidate.
His webpage, through which you can contribute directly whether or not you plan to attend this event, is here.
Peace.
