Isn't the key to get college kids voting? |
|
They are never polled since they only have cell phones, and they still love Obama. I hope the Dems have been working that angle.

1. They don't all still love Obama |
|
The vibe among many of my peers is that of having air let out of a balloon.

6. The polling data says the opposite and people understand the mess Republicans got us into. |

We all know who got us into this mess and although Bush was the cause it sure wasn't just the Rs. THere were more than a few D enablers who still stick around making things nice and "reaganesque."
Now about getting us out of it...and I do mean NOT JUST WALLSTEET.

7. College students are not a demographic you can activate at the last minute. |
|
College students require a lot of work revolving around registration. Many of them move every year, registrations lapse or they end up registered for a precinct in which they don't live, perhaps they maintain registration at the parents' house, etc. Any attempt to get out the vote among college students has to begin well before election day.

9. You can't do it if you represent the system. Kids don't care about the status quo |

11. "But if you don't vote, then Lieberman and Nelson won't be kingmakers gutting liberal legislation!" |
|
How could those kids pass up an opportunity like this?

14. Because unless the status quo is actually changed a Neocon Republican return is inevitable. |

Time to start acting like liberals and not sackless moderates.

12. Many are registered at their home address |
|
They typically don't pay attention to local elections
