I am so disappointed to read that Sierra Club has made another
endorsement that follows the guidelines of endorsing only
candidates that supposedly have a good chance of winning. Sure it
makes their numbers look good when they say, "...67% of our
endorsed candidates get elected..." but it makes them lose
passionate, committed activists like me.
I got pretty sick of, "something is better than nothing"
legislation and "better than the other guy" endorsements. BLEH!
