DUers how many of you are occupying your local news web site?....

Thanks to Facebook commenting a lot of sites have switched to, I now see other DUers comments on their newsppaer sites and I can like theres, they can like mine. The ditto heads don't know what hit them. Send me a PM to hook up with me on Facebook. FYI I am in the mother of swing states, so feel free to jump in and help, if you are in a nnot in play state.

yes. I don't write for the dittos, they are a lost cause. I write for the independents who are too busy to keep up with current events. send me a PM and I'll send you my facebook profile.

I've done well in a few discussions about Ryan and women's health issues on Anne Rice's fan page. She's sparked some heated discussions and some posters are threatening to start a boycott over her politics.

Doing what I can do. Not that Obama could ever win Arkansas, but that's not the point of it.

I always appreciate DU during election season as a one-stop shop for information on a wide variety of topics.
