I Think That All Of You Need To Realize Something.
It is short, simple and factually accurate:

After 6 years of utter failure and bullshit, the majority of Americans no longer believe in this administration and congress. They want change.

Remember this:

We already have more than enough people willing to vote Democratic on Tuesday to take back not only the House, but the Senate as well. This fact will not change. After years of hard work and tremendous frustration, all that there is left to do is to GET OUT THE DAMN VOTE; understand? We HAVE enough voters. We HAVE the numbers to win. They are THERE already. We simply just must find a way to get those voters to the polls to cast those votes. That's all we need to do to win, period. That's it. Remind yourself again: We have the numbers. We have enough people who want change. We have enough to control both houses of congress. We just have to make sure they get to the polls on Tuesday. Nothing else matters.

That is all.

Goodnight,

OMC

4. Thank you for the reminder
I happen to believe our country is worth fighting for at the polls. There are too many good people who only need to realize that we can not give up, if we want to continue living in a free country. Never give up.

5. amen . . . and the voters themselves are HIGHLY motivated . . .
many can't wait to get to the polls to vote AGAINST Republicans . . . I can't tell you how often I've heard that in the past couple of months . . .

6. I was in 2004
so bad I woke up early, as in before teh polls opened, after not sleeping all night

Then came the stealing in Oh.

I already voted... but this time around my cynicism is deep as well as my distrust of the system

By teh way, this is NOT to discourage people to vote... quite the contrary... MAKE THEM WORK FOR IT, and perhaps IF THEY STEAL IT, it will not be ten people on the corner freezing to death, with signs... as we were in 2004

11. First, Help Them Get To The Polls.
Afterwards, we'll organize everyone again to fight any injustices that may arise, if it comes to that. But the first step is getting anyone we can out there to vote to begin with. So grab everyone you know and make sure they get there! :)

7. Damn right, OMC!
We do have the numbers. We just need to make sure the bodies get to the polls on Tuesday, AND that they are able to cast their vote (and the vote they WANT to cast).

9. Good on you, Nicole!
I can't do that, because of my schedule on Tuesday. But I CAN, and I WILL, be driving past the neighborhood polling place to make sure there are no GOP Operatives trying to keep people from voting. There is a large black and Hispanic population in my neighborhood, and I will go to the mat to make sure that NO ONE interferes with their right to vote.

10. Good on you, Seattle Girl!
What you are doing is a bigger thing than what I'm doing, given your schedule. I don't work so I have all day to drive.

I'll be driving in 2 shifts. In the morning I'm driving for our County Dem HDQ so I don't know how many I'll drive to the polls for them. Then in the afternoon I'm taking 5-6 of the people on my Meals On Wheels route.
