Steve Benen of The Washington Monthly:

GUESS WHO'S VOTING?.... The other day, I had an idea for a short election-related video, so I jotted down a few notes. Of course, I don't know anything about turning back-of-the-napkin ideas into a finished product, so I took the concept to my friend Bill Simmon, a skilled filmmaker who knew exactly how to convert my script into a fun little clip.

Here's what we came up with. Let me know what you think.

10. Someone should have put Ann Coulter & Meg Whiteman's faces in there and say....

Ann Coulter - "Voting but probably in the wrong district"
Meg Whitman - "Voting for the first time in 28 elections"

[Iwillnevergiveup]

11. K&R

[The Wizard]

14. Democracy is not a spectator sport

It is incumbent on you to stop the crazy. Get out and vote early and often. Bring someone else to vote.
Stop the Republican robber barons from lowering living standards of the working class.
Republicans don't solve problems; Republicans are the problem.

[wndycty]

[classof56]
