8. We need to get even more united the next four years.

Leaving DU or the Democrat Party is admitting defeat and you're just giving up.

I'm going to apply the song "Mosh" even moreso the next four years.

Who's with me???

19. No way! I need some hope and sense that we aren't completely

helpless to make a difference. If it wasn't for DU I don't know how I would be dealing, or not dealing, with the overwhelming feelings of grief, rage, fear, confusion, and nausea. I haven't been here that long, but this place has become my lifeline and sanity check.

But this morning, I need you guys. I feel like ripping my head off and throwing it against the wall... you ppl are the only thing keeping me sane right now.

So thanks...

But I think I'm more a small 'd' now. The party needs to change direction and if they aren't going to listen to the base and make some changes I won't be a part of it any more. Think maybe the Greens are going to gain a lot of folks.

40. I would like to stay at DU

But next week, I expect to be in another party.

I want the DLC to disband, and the DLC leadership to step away from the podium, and that is not going to happen.
So now I am trying to decide if I go Green, or Socialist.
Perhaps Labor will go ahead and form its own party. I could get behind that. I think it should.

But if Kerry gets up there and tells me that I need to work with Bush*, then I will have a very very hard time staying Dem. A great crime was done this election. Media and the Republican party are indistinguishable. CNN is schizophrenic today, and you can see the guilt and horry in some faces today.

Even if I chose to concede that Dumbyass won this election legitimately, which I am not, there'd still be the fact that he stole the 2000 election. And do you think for a moment he'd win 2004 if he hadn't stolen 2000?
