I have blisters on my feet from canvassing today, and
my eyes are starting to cross from writing to media and my ears are ringing from phone calling..

What about you?

Are you canvassing, Calling voters or volunteers? Are you unspinning the news media ? Writing letters to the editor?

If not... what?

1. Some of us work on the media
whicgh is what I have been doing

I have also been inspiring the troops, the ones on my mailing list, some of whom were somewhat discouraged

Still working on my voter in a swing state, he does not like bush, but looking for excuses not to vote for Kerry.

If in the end he goes Libertarian I will take that too

2. Wow, I can't imagine
what it's liken to canvass in such a big state as Texas. I feel guilty, because in NYC, I walk 10 feet and pass 10,000 Kerry supporters. :)

I work with my union local, TWU local 125, AFL-CIO. Phone banking is our big thing, because we don't have any work to do in our own state.

5. No doubt about it,
GOTV efforts on the ground are what's making this election. U.S. elections will *never* be the same after that 2000 fiasco. People are finally waking up.

God bless Texas, and I mean that most sincerely.
