“WORK” is not a 4-letter word for nothin’!
However, I committ myself to this: I’ll work to do whatever I can to get him elected in 2008.

American citizens want and expect and need democrats to start helping Americans. We the sick people should be allowed to go to the doctor and take medicine. Not a single democrat in North Carolina acts as if they know this even as it made all papers this summer. We are asking for trouble if the Democrats treat the people like the republicans.

Ditto.

Will Larry Kissell’s website stay live through the next two years?

Will we far-flung supporters monitor Rahm’s plans for the district?

Will Larry Kissell’s campaign’s excellence in timely, inclusive, online communicating with far-flung supporters be made a best practice for BlueAmericans’ campaigns?

What effect will a Dole retirement have in NC? Could Robin step up to contest an open GOP primary there? Other squeaker House winners have done the same elsewhere. How does NC law work wrt running to keep one’s House seat while simultaneously seeking one’s party’s Senate nod?

And many, many, many thanks again to Larry and his family, friends, supporters, students, and community for scaring Robin but good!

Who’s Next?
