176. What really struck me about this...
...is WHO he asked us to call. (And yes, I do think it's tacit encouragement to call other Senators too, but...) I mean, we can harrass Boxer and Feingold and Obama and the like until the cows come home, and it's good that we do--but that's not where the power is, and we know it. Not the votes, and not of the "conventional wisdom" media narrative. Progressive Democrats' offices will be friendly to us, but their hands are tied. Unless we put Republican creeps actually running the show like Hastert and Frist on notice that the PEOPLE demand this, then contesting the votes and wanting fraud investigated will be written off as just another wacko far-left whine.
