...support for Democrats from me.
This year I volunteered for Jeff Merkley in Oregon, calling strangers on the phone and telling them how electing him would make a difference in Washington. And I donated money to the Obama campaign. Both won. Not just because of me, but because of millions like me who believed in Change.
I am registered as an independent, but, foolishly, I believed that Change would happen.
I may vote for a Democrat from time to time. But if I ever give my time and money to a candidate it will be for one who represents a party of true change. Not sure if there is one in this benighted country, but I know for certain it is NOT the Democratic Party.
