Just got this from Joe...
The past 7 days have given me a chance to come home to Delaware and begin to put our campaign into some type of context. It's also given me an opportunity to look back on the past year and all we accomplished.

From scratch, we created an organization that went toe-to-toe with every other campaign out there. And while we were outspent 10-to-1, no one worked harder or longer than the legions of Biden staffers, volunteers and supporters that made up our team. I am so intensely proud to have been part of such an effort. I just want to say thank you again to everyone for everything you did to help us this past year.

Although our role has changed, there is still much work to be done to confront the challenges and crises that threaten the nation. Restoring our reputation in the world and moving the country forward will require a truly team effort in the days ahead.

After a short rest to catch our breath, let us get up, roll up our sleeves, and get back to work.

There are still promises to keep.

Joe

1. I got it too
And it threw me off for a second, as if I was in a time warp, catapulted back to a recent time when I received his emails regularly.

3. I know, I was like, be still, my beating heart, LOL....
I got 2 more letters of thanks this week, for donating, and one of them was a bit more specific about how many times I had donated. Really wasn't expecting that. They all go in the scrap book.

5. Here's to hoping that he still keeps his supporters in the loop as to what he is up to.
At this point in time, nothing would make me happier.

7. just got home and saw it
like everyone else, I got a rush from seeing it.

You know, this entire campaign - on both sides - is such a clusterfuck I am waiting for something unprecedented and improbable. No idea what - I just can't believe what we are seeing is the real world. We are all going to wake up anf find that Gore is just wrapping up his second term and Biden is the heir apparent, having replaced lieberman in the second Gore administration.

Failing that, maybe the good fairy will come and make Joe POTUS.

Or I'll just grow old and die muttering about the good old days when the United States was a world power, before it was carved up by China and India, having become totally bankrupt fighting Iran and Pakistan simultaneously in the Thompson administration.
