55. I may sit out the 2008 election
for the first time since the Dem primaries in 1992, I may just walk away from fundraising and campaigning for Dems in 2008. I've been giving it strong consideration the last couple of weeks.

It really makes no difference right now. If they manage to avert disaster and another stolen election, they will end up ignoring rank and file Dems, electing shitty leaders who let the news media and corporate lobbyists tell them what to do, how to do it and when.

I love my party, and have hope it will eventually recover from this mess. But for now I'm probably going to focus on something besides politics for 2008. I need to remodel my kitchen and put my kids through college, and maybe get ready to run for office myself.
