The progressive revolution starts today. It is now time to fight for change. Saturday was the New Hampshire debates where the presidential candidates all talked about the important factor of change. John Edwards talked about how some people resist change and will attack anyone who tries to bring about change. It is clear that this country needs change if we are to move America forward in a positive direction. Before the debates, I was feeling rather down because I am the type of person who likes to jump right in and start talking to the voters. I felt the last two months like I was running up against a stone wall. There was nothing I could do to get around that wall; nevertheless, after listing to the leaders of our party talk about their passion for change I am now ready to start fighting once more for change in my local community. We need to inspire passion for change in Albuquerque voters and the only way to do that is by talking with them.
Today I am going to fight for change for our country and our local community. Our party’s leadership will need our passion and our support in bringing about change in the leadership of this country. I am asking everyone to talk with people they know about our candidates. We need to encourage people to get out and vote for change. If you know someone who has felt defeated or down about the direction that our country is headed then talk with them about making a stand for change and help us get them out to vote on February 5. We need to send a clear message that we support our candidates and that we want to bring change to our country for a better future. Like the song says take a look in the mirror today and make the change.
Governor Bill Richardson
Governor Richardson, Big Bill to us here in New Mexico, did well in the New Hampshire debate. I loved it when he said that he had been in hostage negotiations that were friendlier. We hope people in New Hampshire go to the polls tomorrow and vote for our governor because of what they saw during Saturday debate. Governor Richardson has proving that he can make changes while bringing people together for a common good.

Quotes:
Senator Edward M. Kennedy (Teddy)
"For all those whose cares have been our concern, the work goes on, the cause endures, the hope still lives and the dream shall never die."
The O'Coilean (O'Collins)
'A great host with whom it is not fortunate to contend, the battle-trooped host of the O'Coileain."
Abraham Lincoln
"With malice toward none, with charity for all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in, to bind up the nation's wounds, to care for him who shall have borne the battle and for his widow and his orphan, to do all which may achieve and cherish a just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all nations."
From NPR Radio
"Rosa sat so Martin could walk.
Martin walked so Obama could run.
Obama ran so our children can fly!"
Ralph Waldo Emerson
"I awoke this morning with devout thanksgiving for my friends, the old and the new."

"Friendship is loving someone no matter what is in their past. It is accepting the fact that they are human and that they have made their share of mistakes over a life time. Trust is being able to tell your friend the most private secret knowing that they will not judge you. A life is not lived well without that one true and trusted friendship."
Mary Harris "Mother" Jones
"My job is to comfort the afflicted and afflict the comfortable"
Albert Einstein
"Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind."
Will Rogers
"I don't belong to an organized party--I'm a democrat."
President John F. Kennedy, Democrat
“If by a ‘liberal’ they mean someone who looks ahead and not behind, someone who welcomes new ideas without rigid reactions, someone who cares about the welfare of the people—their health, their housing, their schools, their jobs, their civil rights, and their civil liberties—someone who believes we can break through the stalemate and suspicions that grip us in our policies abroad, if that is what they mean by a ‘Liberal,’ then I’m proud to say I’m a ‘Liberal.’”
Martin Luther King Jr.
"Faith is taking the first step, even when you don't see the whole staircase."
Lora O'Brien
"All I can do is share one person's experiences on her own path, not tell you how to walk yours. If a guru is what you are looking for, find another! If I am a teacher, it is because I am already walking the path that you, Dear Reader, may wish to be on. Although each of us must make our own way, I can put up signs at least, and make the way slightly less hazardous for those who wish to walk a similar path."
C. S. Lewis
"Affection is responsible for nine-tenths of whatever solid and durable happiness there is in our lives."
