I remember the Gore/Bush election and the Democrats folded for the good of the country. There should have been a fight then.

Important that we all step up, speak out, and act accordingly in different ways. Sometimes hope is contagious.

They are doing us absolutely no good.
Reps in my state folded. Disgusting.
