Democrats now have to unite to defeat Bush and to fight for a better America. We need to unite to win the NY-13 district from Vito Fossella and to win the State Senate. In CD-11 we have had a divissive primary, but now is the time to unite. Morkfrombrooklyn in another diary made an excellent suggestion and I am trying to make it happen. He suggested an event where all camps in CD-11 unite. Here is my letter to as many people as I could think of who were involved in the CD-11 race:

The CD-11 district has just gone through a very difficult primary. Four good candidates vied for one spot, and congratulations to Yvette Clarke for her win. I am a blogger for the Daily Gotham, and in the course of the discussion and venting over the primary, someone came up with a great idea: a Unity Rally for our district. No matter our differences over who should represent the district, we all recognize that it is far more important that Democrats unite against the extremely dangerous Bush agenda. Now is the time to express that unity. Now is the time for all four camps to get together and express their vision for a better America. Too often Democrats have been divided in their fight to better America and to stop the Bush agenda. Let's stand up for the environment, for energy independence, for a fair deal for workers and small businesses and families, for education, for equality, for diplomatic solutions, and for fair and accurate elections. Let's stand up for America. I tried to include people from all camps and from the organizations I am familiar with in this email. Of course I have missed many important people and hope that this email can be circulated. But what is needed is a rally where all four candidates and their supporters stand up and express their united front against Bush and the Halliburton Republicans. Please, to Carl Andrews, David Yassky, Chris Owens and, Congresswoman Yvette Clarke, and to all their supporters, let's have a Unity Rally for America right here in the CD-11.

I hope we can follow through with this and show that, despite our differences, there are more things we are united behind. And once again, let's unite to win the State Senate and Congress.
