Begging you to go to DC on the 6th
If you are anywhere within a couple hours drive, bus, or train distance from DC, please be there on the 6th. Not only to alert America about election 2004 but in support of everyone who stood in the rain on the 2nd of November to make sure their vote counted but still are not certain that it was.

Pick a person to sponsor and be in DC on their behalf;

A student who waited in line for 10 hours to vote.
An elderly person waiting any length of time to vote.
Anyone who was severely ill but still stood in line to vote.
Any of the african americans who were blockaded several different ways but still made it a point to vote.
Those who were challenged because they didn't answer mail from the GOP.
The list goes on, be there on January 6th and be a part of history.

3. In a wave of fantasizing I just looked up airfare.
I can't get anywhere near DC for less than $400. *sigh* Would I love to be there!
