This just in from Yearly Kos (by e-mail):

The YearlyKos Convention team is pleased to welcome Senator Hillary Clinton to the second annual, historic gathering of the netroots in Chicago this August. Clinton joins Senators Edwards, Obama, Dodd, and Governor Bill Richardson as a participant in the first ever collaborative presidential forum with both a respected blogger(Joan McCarter of DailyKos) and a leading member of the traditional media (Matt Bai of The New York Times Magazine) as moderators, with author and blogger Dr. Jeffrey Feldman facilitating questions from attendees.

Yearly Kos is taking place August 2 to 5 in Chicago. I'll be there and joining Marcy Wheeler of The Next Hurrah and Christy Hardin-Smith from Firedoglake on a panel about blogging the Scooter Libby trial. Sheldon Snook from the U.S. District Court in D.C. who herded all of us and the MSM at the trial, will also be joining us.

Registration for Yearly Kos ends tonight at midnight. You can register here.

    you could be the John the Baptist for BTD at Yearly Kos so he could present not-funding the Iraq War to the Presidential candidates in attendence?  So important not to let this opportunity slip away.

    Yes, we need to have the defunding approach intelligently and civilly presented and defended.

    I know this is off-topic for this thread but I hope this idea is followed up on and we're anxious to be kept informed.

    Clinton's campaign rep posted a diary on Orange announcing she would appear at Yearly Kos, the vituperative comments in response were abundant.  Of course, no one here apparently cares!

    This might be the best forum/debate of the whole primary season.

    I hope it's streamed somewhere.
