1. I wouldn't be too discouraged

I understand how you feel, but I'm beginning to believe that there really is a conscious strategy at play here (could be wishful thinking).

Joe Biden has been in politics for over three decades and I think his style of campaigning is deliberate. He knows that the frontrunners will be easy targets and will suffer from over-exposure with this long campaign. In just a few weeks, we've seen interest in Biden gradually snowball. The majority of voters are undecided and are still looking for someone who "clicks" for them. Joe Biden may possibly be the last candidate that they scrutinize, which is to his advantage. "Where did HE come from?" "Hmmm, how did I miss him?"

If Biden goes the distance, I think we will see a unique campaign where the people really take back politics from the money and the media.

3. I get discouraged too

but I have to believe in something. What the hell. Maybe we are dreamers, but we'll kick ourselves for years if we don't try. And if we're right, we can bask in the glow of our righteousness!!!

4. Hope you're feeling better today :)

I think we all have those days.

My problem is that there is not one other candidate in the group that
I feel strongly about. So I keep on fighting for the one I believe in.

We are making a difference. I think I got another DUer - maybe
not to fully endorse Biden, but to look at Biden differently than s/he was.
