Perspective

It's far from over, if you look at it like this we got 10% in 1 large city the size of Minneapolis and 9% in a city that isn't even in the top 33 cities in the United States. It's so FAR from over, it's just practice! No offense to these states but to give up now because we lost in a couple cities makes no sense, it's a marathon not a sprint. We have a long way to go and can easily make up this up.

Just keep going. It is never over. And then there is always 2012!

This is a movement that will only gain momentum as the economy sinks. We will win eventually - it is only a question of how much pain the average voter needs before they are ready to vote against big Government.
