I'm sorry -- I'm worried us losing Missouri was my fault

[liberalpragmatist]

I'm from the St. Louis area. I canvassed and phone banked in St. Louis city (mainly South St. Louis) all weekend and on Monday. However, I didn't sign up for GOTV on phone-banking -- the reason was that friends in Chicago invited me to come spend election night with them. So on Tuesday, I took a bus up to Chicago. (I did spend the afternoon phone-banking in Chicago to Indiana and Pennsylvania.)

On the one hand, being in Chicago was absolutely incredible -- like nothing I have ever witnessed before for a political event.

On the other, we lost Missouri by just a few thousand votes (probably less when provisional ballots are counted). I can't help feeling I was a little selfish.

1. Oh, stop. You going to Chicago doesn't change the fact there are plenty of

clueless racist dumbasses outside the StL metro area.

Thanks for your hard work!

celebration! Don't worry about it....he kicked McCain's ass good enough!
