37. I wish you had been with me in 2006

Edited on Sat Nov-03-07 04:13 PM by demnan

I got energized working for a man who ran for Congress in my District. He had no money and no name against an obscenely rich incumbent, but through door-to-door and phone calls, he got 44 percent of the vote.

That's a small victory out of the mouth of defeat. We need more heart in this party, we need more on the ground activity and we need more push a little to get some leverage.

On edit: We did get Senator Webb! Our county, Prince William, was crucial in his victory.

Don't ever give up -- don't ever give in -- work for peace -- work for justice.

Nancy
