Pundits, Politicians at RIC

We don't like to flog too many events here at N4N. But for all you political junkies, this is one worth knowing about.

Rhode Island College's "Congress to Campus" series convenes October 25-27 with a series of panel discussions. Former Congressman Barry Goldwater, Jr. (R-CA) and former Congresswoman Beverly Byron (D-MD) will participate in a couple of talks making a plea for bipartisanship (good luck with that). Rhode Island native and political analyst Jennifer Duffy will deliver the keynote.

All-but-official gubernatorial candidates Lincoln Chafee and Frank T. Caprio will join Goldwater and Byron, both from political families, on a panel about the "connection between civic service and family ties." A Rhode Island version of "Real Time with Bill Maher" will feature veteran Rhody political reporters Bill Rappleye, Scott MacKay and Jim Baron. Details here.
