Thank You

When I returned home to my computer tonight, my inbox was full of volunteer offers to help out with the Dean Defense Forces, the Dean campaign had announced that over 1000 grassroots Democrats had signed the letter rejecting the DLC's stance, Atrios and Kos had both told the DLC they were out of line, hundreds (likely thousands) of us had posted comments on various message boards across the net, and I was still getting reports of people contacting the DLC, the Washington Post, and writing their local elected officials.

It literally almost brought me to tears. I've never seen so many people so united with so little effort. And it is the response to the DLC that proves exactly why they're wrong. Head over to the official site and you can read over a thousand letters from Dean supporters. Some are former Greens, some were formerly non-political, some are lifelong Democrats, some are county party chairs, some are Republicans, some are independents.

Dean's backers are more than diverse. We are America. And we're committed.

And it is really, truly beautiful.

So thank you, all of you for all you've done.

And thank you, to the campaign staff, for all your hard work.

And thank you, Joe Trippi, for leading us in these battles.

And thank you, Howard Dean, for everything.

Literally, for everything.
