11. Huge win
The wins don't just come in taking back the seat.
They come in the attention this race has garnered
in this country and I'd say in the world.
It comes in the people waking up to what's going
on with their rights.
It comes in the further organizational efforts
that will be used in the future.
It comes in the boost to progressives knowing
our efforts can pay off and that others are just as fed up with
what's going on.

This has been a very good thing. And I don't mind the Kochs
losing more of their money.
