The drive to swap votes with Democrats in "safe states" was a real
challenge.  I was pleasantly surprised that sections of the party who would
have gone for this in the past did not this time.

The real challenge, though, is whether the party has actually built
anything out of this campaign.  I think there are sections of it that are
still confused as to what is required of a being a genuine independent
political party at this point in time.

In fact most Stein supporters, including me, would have preferred Chris 
Hedges as a presidential candidate with Cornel West as VP candidate. Or 
vice versa. But the Green Party will outlive whatever flaws of the 
current candidates. Their contribution is to raise its profile as a 
party that does not accommodate to the Democrats even though there were 
some indications that there was intense pressure to do so over the past 
few weeks, something we can thank the dirtbag David Cobb for.
