Hi, everybody. This week from hell is almost over, thank God. I am twice-divorced and neither divorce was as painful as losing our candidate for president. However, weeping and wailing is over and working for Clark's agenda is back on. Whatever he is doing, wherever he is going, I'm there. So now he has gone over to the Kerry campaign; I'm not letting him do it alone. Everybody has to make their choices, and it's no foul if anyone makes a different choice. Choose Dean; choose Edwards; choose Kucinich; choose nobody in the remaining field. We're all Wes Clark Democrats no matter what we do. My primary vote belongs to Wes. My GE vote belongs to the nominee. I follow Clark's lead in the meantime. There have been indications he will be calling us back as a force, so I'm signing up for the various Clark groups-in-waiting to keep informed and ready. But as far as this election year goes, I will work for Kerry, because Wes is working for Kerry. He was healthier and happier today standing with John Kerry than I've seen him in months. I've been inching along a little bit each today, but holding back for a message from Wes. Today I watched him receive the full respect and affection of the frontrunner and I watched him be terrifically pleased. It was what I was waiting for and it told me all I needed to know. I've signed onto Kerry's blog and introduced myself. I know some Kerry people from DU. They have never treated us in the horrid ways Edwards and Dean supporters have, so I'm not finding it hard to like them. They are courteous in the way our leader likes us to be. If you can't join in, no problem, but please represent Clark's values at all times if you visit. (This little seegreen person, for example, is obviously running back and forth, spying here, spying there, and fomenting discord between the camps.) We may be the army and they may be the navy, but Gen. Clark has joined forces with John Kerry and his supporters, so we're in this together, one way or another, and to whatever extent each of us can commit. But don't feel you're doing the General any favors by feeling you are any more loyal than the people who are following his lead on this, or in any way superior to the Kerry people. These campaigns have merged, like it or not. The General has thrown his support to Kerry. We are his support, are we not?
