Some have said that when Wes endorsed Hillary, it caused them to take a second look at her. I wouldn't put it exactly the same way, but the fact that Wes isn't running and that he's endorsed Hillary has caused me to take a second look at how I evaluate who I'm supporting.

Wes is actually here. He got into the hall about 20 minutes ago and greeted a few people then disappeared behind the curtain. There are clarkies everywhere at two of the front-center tables.

First off, there's not that much to say because there's SO MUCH to say, which is why I haven't written anything up til now, but a little birdie from Ohio told me people were upset. So I'll write something, but only if you all promise to go watch the thing as its pieces are posted here.

I'm not looking for a candidate. Sometime in 2003--don't remember exactly when--I discovered General Clark. At first, I thought he was just a candidate I might support. I hadn't seriously supported a candidate since Walter Mondale's landslide defeat broke my 16-year-old heart in 1984. I grew to know General Clark and I became a part of the community he'd created. He dropped out on February 11, 2004, during a 24-hour-period I'll never forget; I'll never forget drowning my sorrows in Crunchy Cheetos and Sam Adams.

Got lost on the way to Metropark--never gone there directly from work before. Had to call hubby on the cell to get new directions, which sucked cause he's home with 101 fever.

As of this morning, we've (mostly Ice) mailed 2562 Buttons with another 1119 buttons on order. I think Ice has actually mailed more than she's checked off, so odds are it's more like 3000+ sent and 600+ on order, but we'll wait til she checks the button before we report it that way!
