Despite my life, despite cancer, despite over a decade of therapy and a magnitude of self-help books and workshops, I am still as hopeless of a romantic as Meg freakin' Ryan and as melodramatic as an Oscar-winning actress.

I realized at MoveOn that it makes no sense for progressives to raise tons of money for candidates who then spend it inefficiently. We need to help them run effective campaigns and win.
