Just can't let go of losing. I understand it to a point.
I remember back in 2008 when then Sen. Obama got the best of Hillary. I was not a happy camper, but once the primaries were over, and once Hillary threw all of her support behind Sen. Obama, I got squarely behind him and never looked back. I did what I could to get others to register to vote. Helped get seniors to the polls, and made sure--with the help of others--to make sure people who sent away for mail-in ballots got them, and myself, along with others, also made sure that those who needed help getting to the polls to vote on election night got there.
But like I say, some folks just can't let go . Oh well
