A Call To Arms... Don't Stop The Fight...
The past few days have brought many Americans to the brink of emotions. We don't, however, need to succumb to the grief that has stricken most of us. We still have a lot of work to do. Next year's elections will be as crucial as this year's. Why?

Well, you have to consider the results of this year. Democrats were trying to oust Republican senators in heavily Republican States. GOP victories were scored in Democratic states. President Bush didn't lose any important electoral votes. How could this happen?

It all starts at the bottom. When you have a Republican controlled position in a state, you give life to them in that state. The GOP has been able to keep most of their important Senate and House positions in traditionally Republican states. They also, however, have reached out and grabbed important seats in the House, Senate, and Governorship. With these types of tactics, the Republican Party expands their base and puts tremendous pressure on the Democrats to keep their existing seats.

This is why it's time to look for the leaders in our Democratic Party that are willing to take this opportunity to bring us forth towards a victory in 2005 and beyond. We can't stop fighting back just because of a monkey continuing its monkey-business. Next year, we have to make a concerted effort to begin getting these Republicans out of the Governatorial/Comptroller positions. Let's fight back against the Neocons/Middle-American regime that has plagued our country. If we don't, we face the possibility of losing our voice in this "DemoCRAZY".
