him.

I'm that way, too.. If we had lost in 2008 I would, of course, voted for Hillary and no doubt come to like her since I did.

I had a similar experience with Kerry in 2004.. I was a Dean supporter and when he lost we were mad! but, I came on board for Kerry not too long after. I was at a rally of his on Nov4, 2004 in Manchester, NH. No way was I going to not work for a Dem running against bush2.

More of us look at the big picture and don't make it about us and our fees.. thankfully! We are capable of seeing beyond that and doing everything we can for our Healthy Planet and so future generations can enjoy it, too.

There is no Plan B.
