?I'm not sure who's left with the South Dakota Democratic Party.

Northeast organizer Amanda (Mattingly) Mack was laidoff yesterday. The party just can't pay her anymore.

Like Matt McLarty's leaving, this is another terrible blow. Amanda is a young, bright, aggressive, and successful organizer. She is a future star of our party. So now what?

Coupled with the postponement of McGovern Day next week and these departures, I am deeply troubled about the future of the state party.

Does anyone have any thoughts or solutions?

I'm going to be pondering this over the weekend and offer some thoughts and ideas in a day or two. In the meantime, talk amongst yourselves in the comments.
