Strategy for 2006? How do we fast track voting reform or at least achieve |
|
some type of damage control? Where are we most vulnerable? How do we make sure we are all on the same page? Is Dean our man on point? 2006 will be here in a blink. Are we ready?

1. I believe we need to work locally. |
|
With our individual representatives. Distribute information to them, arrange meetings, make them listen and understand. Keep writing LTTE, etc. as well, distribute flyers/newsletters on the subject in local venues.

No Mandate Here.

2. If I were in charge... |
|
I would have three main directions...
1. Identify twenty five congressional districts and design a strategy and designate a strong candidate for each, so we can get at least 16 of them in 2006. This has to start right now.
2. Keep election fraud in the forefront of debate. Identify ongoing challenges - both in and out of the courts - and maintain dialog about it. Keep hammering after the Hammer, as well, because he is in the middle of all of this.
3. While we're on elections... We need to identify a couple highly symbolic Senators and do everything we can to un-elect them. One that easily comes to mind is Sanatorium. He can be made vulnerable, and it is a pleasure to imagine him being retired. Then nobody would fault him for being a Virginia resident.

3. me too, I'd like to see Dems grab onto election reform |
|
I hope they don't let it fall by the wayside in the crush of other issues. They need to keep up the drumbeat. In my opinion, they should have gone out on the TV political talk shows this past weekend and talked it up. I was busy this weekend and didn't catch many of the shows: Was Boxer on any? Did any other Dems raise the issue? Did any of the talking heads talk about Boxer's stand or discuss election reform in any meaningful way?? Anybody know?
