NEVER AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!! (Original Post)

OP
DURHAM D
(32,610 posts)1. I have been wearing that pin while working at the polls.
I got the message from one of the women (a precinct captain something or other) that she didn't care for it and thought it was diluting the message. I just ignored her. Fuck it. I have been a ground runner for the Democratic party since before she was born.
There was a bit of a down side however. When the older women saw the button they just walked up and started talking. They needed to talk. Some were very emotional. All were incredulous that we are fighting this battle again. All were indignant. All were determined.
