You have to show up to do the work. How do you throw a fundraiser and not stay there for it? I guess when you’re running a national campaign and not a local one you outsource the work.

I remember when gay marriage passed, she showed up to the celebration march at the court house yelling and angry (at who knows what). At that moment I realized that gays were just a token for her to exploit for her platform. She couldn’t even just celebrate with us and be happy for our moment. I never liked her since. And I think it’s disrespectful she is using the gay community again for her platform when she doesn’t care or show up.
You are ther live & in person! Go Egan!
