Who's Got Rooms Tonight at the Driskill?

Invite us to your room party!

The Dem party hearty crowd are wisely booking rooms at the Driskill Hotel tonight, site of the Dems Election Night Watch Party. Lee Leffingwell told us that he didn't get a room since he doesn't drink - but that everyone else seems to have one. If you imbibe at the free public party: Call a cab, or ask Leffingwell to drive you home. Capital Metro buses today are free. But catch your bus well before midnight, when due to a pledged labor strike (still on at the moment), all CapMetro buses may turn into pumpkins.
