PHOTOS: CBC Awards Dinner
The Congressional Black Caucus Foundation’s 36th Annual Legislative Conference ended last night with their annual Awards Dinner. More than 400 tables — at up to $750 per seat — filled the Washington Convention Center as members of the CBC honored and were honored by current and former members.
It seemed that every black player in national politics was in the room last night. But no one drew the crowds — or the opportunistic photo seekers (this reporter included) — like U.S. Senator Barack Obama.
PUB DEF bumped into St. Louis State Rep. Rodney Hubbard among the thousands of people at the dinner and we followed him as he worked the room. See some of our photos from the night at www.pubdef.net/photos/cbc_weekend/9-9-2006.html

Inspecteur Clouseau ici: Antonio, you look really sharp en le photo.
Gardez-vous (watch yourself). Some good-looking mademoiselle may see you and decide you are for her. Not too far hence you may become monsieur et madame francais (oh I mean French).
Bubba says: Keep dressing smart like that and you are a shoo-in for RFT Best Blog. Where is the press release my man?
Antonio:
You clean-up nicely. What are you running for?
