The Ones that Got Away

  • RobertoW recaps Hillary's concession speech and contrasts it to the understated talk Obama gave to his staff afterwards (it has since shown up on YouTube). According to Roberto, as opposed to Clinton, "What is so startling, and so moving in its quiet way, is how adamantly Obama rejects this tempting self-mythologizing, even as he attracts celebrity-level attention. He refuses to make himself the living symbol and attention-seeking center of gravity of his own campaign, even though his unprecedented, truly historic organization could not have arisen without him."
  • Billy Glad points to the rise of citizen journalism, "citijour," and suggests how it can be a powerful force in this fall's general election.
  • LisB relates, very personally, why we need to uphold Roe v. Wade, and how one issue can convert a lifelong Republican.

I'd just like to say thank you, Al, for the kind mention. I read through all the comments to my post today on my lunch-hour, and just sat at my desk and cried. No other online community has ever made me feel so welcomed, and so befriended. I truly feel that you've all become family.

I added a comment to the bottom of my post in response to some folks in particular. Sorry it took so long...I was just so blown away and overwhelmed by the support, you cannot imagine.

Thank you, TPM.
