Sheehan throws herself into the race
An article at Raw Story says that Cindy Sheehan has decided to move ahead and run as an independent against Nancy Pelosi.
Frankly, I don't invest my time in independent runs. No one person is going to generate the force needed to bring about the change we need. A group of people working towards a common sane future is what the Green Party is all about, and independent runs don't get us closer to that goal.
Greens may well run a candidate of their own in Pelosi's district. If they do, that is where my support and effort would go. Then again, I don't live in Pelosi's district. sadly, neither does Sheehan.
