Folks, we aren't going to get control of this government by tossing a couple sheckels in the bucket and hoping our man can get America to have a love-a-rama with him and thus vote for him. They have a million more sheckels than we do. But, for all that $$, we still have the blessing of one man, one vote ... yeah yeah yeah, all that talk about how statistics show that new voters don't turn the tide, yadda yadda. Getting out the vote has turned the tide plenty of times, you just have to bust your butt to make it work.

We need "Bodies" folks, the ones that cast the votes. We need energetic and determined bodies to go out and shake the hands and talk with and register the Bodies that are likely under significant stress under this administration. We need sober, stoic and passionately determined people to be vigilant and active over the next six months making sure the votes of those Bodies are protected and their right to representation is not stolen from them (again, e.g. Florida, 2000).
