. . . believed in my Democratic party, believed that we would eventually prevail against the republican majority which has hijacked our democracy ever since Clinton left the beat.
We've weathered some humiliating losses; from Gingrich's 'contract on America' to his eventual retreat with his tail between his legs. From the Bush family's theft of the presidency in Florida to the calculated, open stifling and theft of votes in Ohio that allowed the counterfeit loser to ascend back into office, Bush and his republican enablers have been allowed to escape accountability for their crimes, and for their mindless sacrifice of thousands of our soldiers' lives and livelihoods in their manufactured 'wars' and occupations.
So, today we vote . . . again. I believe we will win. I've always believed . . . in America, and in our democracy's potential to make good on the promises behind the fine words that are pressed into those antique documents that bind us together as a nation.
I'll never stop believing.
