Okay. It's over.  The road to Election Day is finally over. Whether your candidate  won or lost, the die has been cast.  Time to relax, sip a wine, beer, or soda in a cozy chair.

Go ahead.  Relax. Especially if you voted, you deserve a break.

But after that, go to work, again.

The thing is, the numbskulls of NOM - among many, many others - aren't gonna give you a rest.  This, unfortunately, is a LONG  fight. 

But I have faith in you, if you're willing.

Read the newspaper. Write.  E-write.  Talk at a gathering. Petition,  Gather with a crowd and scream your lungs out.

They may pooh-pooh you in public, but privately they'll  hear you.  I promise.
