Welcome to the last days of the campaign Newbies! Now it gets bloody
Edited on Wed Oct-20-04 08:18 PM by IronElder
FOR ALL THE NEWBIES HERE IS WHAT WE MUST DO!
1. From here on out it gets bloody and verbal hand to hand combat is the rule of the day. Let that last verbal barrage be led by you.

2. Our older Dems will literally die in the trenches trying to get votes. When they do someone has to take their place and try to recruit another vote. Let that someone be you.

3. When you are to tired to speak to another person about our cause put the ovaries/balls to the wall and knock on another door. Let that someone be you.

4. You might have to stand against bigger, stronger opponents to make the cause known. If it means you get knocked down so another can herald the cause. Let it be you.

5. If someone has to do what has to be done then let it be you.

I have been around forever people. I was in the third grade when Kennedy was shot. We prospered during his years. His legacy put a man on the moon and brought civil rights to millions.

I cried when Martin and Bobby were killed, but the next day I was out trying to convert people to our cause. I guess I thought I'll grieve later but for now I have to get out the vote.

I fought hard for Jimmy Carter and have built homes along side of him. I believe in his message of peace. So Simple! So Zen!

I live in Arkansas and have taken classes at the University where Mr Clinton taught. I have seen this state and country grow because of him.

As I said I have been around forever and my lamps are growing dim so you newbies need to listen to me. It's your time! We need a new president. Someone has to carry the torch. Let it be you

You might want to change the reference to Kennedy endorsing gay sex.

;)

BTW, speaking of "newbies"...welcome to DU, old timer. Sound's like we're about the same vintage.
