Pajamas Media has good video by Andrew Marcus from the KosKonKlave: YearlyKos 2007: "The New Center"
PJM’s Andrew Marcus wraps up his coverage of the 2007 YearlyKos Convention with this in-depth report on the self-described “new center†not only of the Democratic party, but, according to Markos Moulitsas Zúniga, the national electorate. Eager to spend their newfound influence, the attendees talk about the myriad changes they want to see in American politics, from the impeachment of President Bush before his term is over, to a change in US support for Israel. Andrew also gets Markos’ response to Sgt. David Aguina’s confrontation with Vote Vets’ Jon Soltz.
He also talks to Cole and Mearsheimer. You can skip right to points of interest in the video with pre-set bookmarks (I had to switch to IE to get the video to work, though), but the whole thing is worth watching, including watching Kos talk about "cleaning the party out" of people like Joe Lieberman who aren't "real Democracts".
