JP is right, we do need to get on the phones and e-mails thanking those that voted against CAFTA. I know everyone is pretty hot under the collar about those that voted YEA, but remember that there are future battles ahead that we must try to secure their support on.

There are many people to thank, and I'm getting around to that.

I want to take a moment to offer some special thanks to JP. As all of you know, JP took on a leadership roll in leading our fight against CAFTA. He brought us news story after news story, tracking information, and was there helping me and all of us every step of the way.

Everyone here that worked to oppose CAFTA should be proud of the strong effort and work that we put forward as a team. Just imagine how things could be when there is more of us!

But special thanks to JP. JP you did a great job helping to organize things here on the site and helping me and others with this effort and I want to personally thank you for all of that hard work and patience and leadership you showed in this fight. Your extra efforts on the research front was a great help. I think a lot of us on the board feel the same way from my conversations of late.
