20. Then go for those races that AREN'T considered a "lost cause."

And keep watch on the ones that still are. Things can change.

The more pictures we get back from the war front...
the more photos of now-homeless children and the fearful mothers trying to evacuate them;
the more photos of wreckage from bombings-of-choice - DELIBERATE and PLANNED destruction by Russia, aiming to "soften up" the target and break the target's will;
the more photos of fires and destruction;
the more photos of the wounded;
the more video of the dead;
the more photos of the totally wrecked landscape where there were neighborhoods and kindergartens and shops and schools and hospitals and apartment buildings - and churches (OKAY, "Religious RIGHT" - WHERE are YOU??? Whaddya say????);

This will continue. And it MAY change a few minds. But we shouldn't wait for that. This is NOT the time to "remain hopeful." These are enemies in our midst, right this minute, as long as they stand with Russia, and make excuses for the Russians, and don't actively speak out and work AGAINST Russian interests.
