Common Sense

Just listening to Wes Clark and the crowd, I can tell that we, as a party are very optimistic about this year. Everyone always says that “this is our year.” There is a sea change, though. Something that is almost palapable; the way that people crave change.

Nowhere is that more palpable than right here: Ground Zero for activists who want nothing more than to change this entire country this November. The theme that is inescapable is that everything starts in Texas. This election isn’t just about “local shool boards,” it is about what we can do nationally. We’ve got problems and it is going to take a big step to fix them. We’re going to have to elect Democrats.

Sitting on the floor here at the convention, sitting amongst the hardest of the hardcore, it is not hard to believe that this is the year. That we can make that change. “Enough is enough.”
