Not fun to lose,but it seems you realize you don’t really lose if there are two great candidates like there were here. Congrats to all the volunteers for a job well player….for a very good candidate who will do big things

The way-conservatives are there because they have been on city councils, school boards, county commissions and the like for more than two decades, and now it is paying off in Congress for them. I mean, in terms of national politics.

I certainly hope that Brian Barnes does defeat Erik Paulsen, but I think we need to swarm the lower tiers of government.

The GOP worked for decades spouting nonsense to get their candidates into office from dog catcher on up. Progressives will need to work it from ground up. Good work.

Congratulations on an increase in positive visibility. That is priceless. Sorry you otherwise lost. Thanks for the update!

This was my first real involvement in a campaign and I was very impressed with Sharon. So, if nothing else, it really hooked me, and I hope you won’t mind seeing and hearing more from me. I am sharing this on my Facebook page. Thanks Greg.
