I want to thank all of the supporters who in the last 2 weeks have reached out to wish me well. Whether it was in passing on the street, a text, a phone call, a message or a card, it has meant a lot to me. One person shared with me a famous passage from Teddy Roosevelt that is now posted on my refrigerator. I think it applies to all who worked hard to try to get me elected. It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena...who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat. Thank you to all who stepped up to help me in a worthy cause.
