For many gays, there is bad news. We dont have to hunt for it.
My candidate made it through the primaries (with my volunteer and financial help) , and he won the general election with my volunteer and financial help.) He sent me emails telling me how important my support was.
The sticker on my bumper says Obama. Has since Edwards dropped out of the race. He's going to be a very fine president in many ways..... but YEAH! I'M DISAPPOINTED. This was supposed to be my party too.
