at least the line at the polls will be short who do decide to show up at the polls, assuming you live in a Dem precinct

2. I sure hope you're wrong about people staying home! I'm sure
going to do everything I know of to get people to vote in Nov. Only those ho are Dems though. The Pub neighbors I have, I'm gonna push the idea that they really don't have to bother because so many pukes will be voting they don't need "YOUR VOTE"!

If anything lose the Nov elections or the Dems it's the lazy I give up attitude you referenced!!

3. Giving up is dumb.
I figure most of the post about giving up are wet blankets being posted to dampen Democratic energy.

The wet blankets go against ideas of enthusiasm.

So don't let those thoughts in.

4. Stay at home and you voted for a Republican.
Life is full of less than perfect choices. Choosing to do nothing is a cowardly act. I have more respect for an idiot teabagger that goes out and votes than for someone who claims to be a progressive or a liberal and stays home.

People who stay at home and don't vote are not progressives and not liberals.

5. Vote and you also vote for a Republican. That's the real problem.
I don't see that the Democrats have really done that much that Republicans would not do. Not really that much.

6. I plan to vote
and I will vote for Democrats. No way I want a republican in office.

I did change from Dem to independent for a purpose and will change back to Dem before Nov. These idiots who think many voters are changing to independent better think twice .... we will back to the fold. So don't get cocky republicans. Just because people move to independent doesn't mean you have all the voters.
