I'm not sure how those who work in politics do it
I gave my money, my time, and my heart to this campaign. Right now it feels as though my hearts been ripped out. I can't imagine how those closer to the campaign feel.

2. I won't, but I'm worried about the small # of young people
that actually did get involved. I hope they don't get discouraged.

3. I could be very wrong ...

4. I think we volunteers feel it more than they do
They expect occasional defeats and learn to take them in stride. We worked for free because we wanted it that bad.
