TAKE IT ON THE ROAD UNCLE TEDDY! |

I so hope Senator Kennedy, Caroline and Patrick hit the road for the next few days, building the momentum for Super Tuesday!

6. Maybe Caroline & Patrick |
|
But you can't take "Uncle Teddy" anywhere without the risk him offending someone and getting world-wide media attention doing so.

15. It's the perfect thing to help older voters get behind Obama... |
|
...especially those who don't go online and read his policy positions ~ I was just talking to my dad about that last night.

16. The media has hyped Obama's "youth appeal" and I have this worry. |
|
Do we really know that it's true and how do we know?
We do know that the Republics target the youth vote with everything they have.
We know they claimed that youth didn't come out for Kerry, and even so called "left" talking heads went all over the talk shows to talk that up --- and it turned out to be bullshit.
See where this is going?
Imho, we have to 1) protect the youth vote in any way we can and 2) Check and double check on our candidate's numbers in ANY demographic or we're walking into a trap.

17. What's so wonderful about the Kennedy endorsements... |
|
...is that they have the symbolic clout to help this become a true multi-generational unified movement ~ it will take ALL of us to turn this country around, and it will take the kind of energy that we saw in the 60s and early 70s.

18. Definitely! I watched our Beach Impeach actions get younger and younger |
|
the longer we stayed with it. There were LOTS of seniors -- in chairs, with walkers, with minders even, the first time out. By the last one, there were teens and twenties and thirties with their babies there.
We can do this. We've been training for it. :)
