Feeling a momentum shift...

I dunno, hard to put into concrete terms, but it's coming from the tone of the emails that flood my inbox from liberal causes; the real news in stats like 5 MILL now signed up for ACA (let's improve not repeal it!); and even the media: some recent headlines on bohemeth HuffPo include: Paul Ryan's awkward confrontation by his own constituents; the negative impact economic sanctions are starting to have on Russia's economy; Wendy Davis coming up in the polls in Texas; Nancy Pelosi embracing ACA as a winner for the 2014s..

For as long as it lasts I'm going to ride this wave that I am perceiving, at least for today, of Dems getting a little surge, 6 mos. before the mid-terms.

I'm going to work my FANNY off this fall. ARE YOU WITH ME?

I'm being deputized to register voters on Wednesday and my Wendy yard sign is the second one on the block, a fact which annoyed me and made me very happy.

Super! Good work! Let's get EXCITED!

Thanks for all your hard work and ENTHUSIASM!!!

I'm as broke as I've ever been in my adulthood after getting laid off (at 58 years of age) last August. But I'm chipping in $10 today to help elect and re-elect Dems in Congress.

GO DEMS!
