So, since January I have been working on the Dan Liljenquist campaign for US Senate. It is all over now, and Dan lost. he got around 73,000 votes. Hatch got 130,000 votes. I was really hoping he would win of course. But I am so glad that I got involved on this campaign. I discovered more about the political world, met some really awesome people. I think everyone should get involved on a campaign, so they can see what really goes on.
This is a quote that Dan Shared with all of us. I love it.
Here is one final thought from Theodore Roosevelt:
"It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how
the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them
better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena,
whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly;
who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort
without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the
deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends
himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph
of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails
while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold
and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat."
