We've been ignored by our party, our administration, our representatives and the media (unlike the teabaggers), so how do you plan to make them listen now?

All we have "left" is our money, our votes, and our volunteerism or a wee bit of revolution. I think, for now, we'll just hang on to that. And see what happens
