"its alright with me" - Rep Tubbs-Jones

She is unconcerned that 99 senators did not vote with her.

WHY DO YOU CARE?

She made her point, Boxer made hers.

Lets see how things proceed from here.

"its alright with me... I not upset about the vote at all"

Follow the leaders of the movement instead of just whining and creating dissent just to hear the sound of your own voice.

3. Tubbs, Boxer to start

And any member of Congress who brings into question e-voting.

Support them - help them convince the Dems to implement this as a major party plank.

Bitching about leaving the party is like the little boy who doesnt get his way and is jumping up and down in the McDonalds. Work to make the DNC understand that this IS a significant issue that we CAN win on.

A senator and some Reps are on this side - its an uphill battle - but not impossible.

Work with what we have.

We are on the way to saving democracy.

5. Aren't you posting just to

"hear the sound of your own voice"? How disgusting to diss those of us who were disheartened by the display of "lip service" paid to us by those who are supposed to represent our Democracy and did not! How utterly condescending of you.
