kuangningDon't despair. ACT.
I'm not always enamoured of her. But in this instance, she speaks for me. We can't afford to make this a real defeat, and we will if we duck and cover and shut up for the next four years. Now more than ever, we need to be heard -- and we're in the minority, so we need to be even more insistent, because there are going to be only a damned few voices speaking for us in this administration. So we need to speak up for ourselves, consistently and eloquently, at every turn. We can't be ignored if we don't give in. "These colors" are our colors, too. We need to remind them that there's still blue on that flag -- and it's true that we don't run.
