Want to experience Obama's Washington? This piece from Helene Cooper at The New York Times is as good an insider's guide as anything out there. It mentions plenty of hot spots where you'll find young Democrats.

Travel Guide." href="http://travel.nytimes.com/travel/guides/north-america/united-states/washington-dc/overview.html?inline=nyt-geo">WASHINGTON</A> is suddenly hip again, infused with the heady double-barreled combination of a new crowd of idealistic young political worker bees, who actually believe they can change the world,  and the arrival of America's first black president. It's even cool to wave the Stars and Stripes. And in the honeymoon months of the <A title="More articles about Barack Obama" href="http://topics.nytimes.com/top/reference/timestopics/people/o/barack_obama/index.html?inline=nyt-per">Barack Obama</A> presidency, before the country's marriage to its new president undergoes the usual souring, a trip to the nation's capital is just the ticket.
