2 most important things for dems to focus on verified voting and the media
Please do what you can: sign the petition for verified voting, then start calling your senators and congressmen @ 202 224 3121 and demand that your state have auditable paper reciepts/ballots. We will never win again if we have no paper trail. Volunteer to help oversee elections, register as many people as you can.

If we take back the house and/or the Senate next year it's a whole new ball game.

The media is different we have to be the media, write to your local papers, point out every RW lie you see.

Start distributing pamphlets, my favorite is the media ownership pamphlet that tells you who owns what.

These are the two thing most important in taking our country back: the message and the means (voting).

Nothing else will ever have the chance to matter unless we expose these issues for the American people.

democrats feel strongly about that these just get lumped in with everything.

To that I say want to help the environment? help verify voting
Want to end the war in Iraq? help verify voting
Want to save social security? help verify voting
Want to keep jobs in America? help verify voting
Want to fight the patriot act? help verify voting

It is our only hope.
