Only in Vermont (Well Not Really But We Are Damned Small)

Great news, at least to Vermont blogtopia (Skippy coined this, yes?)

On the heels of our announcement that two regular dKos bloggers will be participating in our state Democratic Party Platform Content Committee, we've got another cool announcement to make.

On Monday, August 28th at 12:00 noon, Green Mountain Daily will host Vermont's first online political candidate debate between the Democratic primary candidates for Lieutenant Governor, Representative John Patrick Tracy of Burlington and Senator Matt Dunne of Hartland. The debate will be held in a live chat room linked from the GMD front page, with comments from viewers in a parallel live-blogging thread.

Yours truly will be moderating, and GMD front pagers Jack McCullough and Vermonter will be on site with the candidates for the duration of the debate.

Cool!
