OK, it's time to stop preaching to the chior. Stop e-mailing your friends the latest polls results and articles by political/religious leaders. This does absolutely nothing to help Bush win the election.
The most important thing you can do in this election (aside from voting) is to get involved in the final 72 hour push to get out the vote.
Amongst my own circle of friends and associates, I know numerous people who are going on retreats the last weekend in October. These are the same "lecture circuit" Catholics who make every lecture and retreat within a 50 mile radius, attend daily mass, and at the same time complain about the evil which is permitted in our society (abortion) etc.
The same people make annual retreats to Lake George, the Jersey Shore, or other vacation areas. Three day weekends are excuses to go back to the lakes, etc. Who knows how many have called in sick or used personal days to take care of personal business. Yet the very same people have a NEGATIVE interest in helping to elect a pro-life, pro-family president.
Yet very few of these people are actually doing anything else except for voting in a State that is already lost to Kerry.
It's time to take a day or two to put the faith into action and come on down to a battleground State to get out the vote. IF YOU ARE READING THIS, IT MEANS YOU!!
I'm helping some pro-life leaders to organize PA and OH get out the vote efforts. If you live in NJ, NY, or PA, I can get you involved in the 72 hour push in PA. If you live near or in OH, I can do the same.
Get off your duff and help get out the vote -- or don't even dare to complain if you have to say "President Kerry" come Nov. 3rd.
And you can always make up the retreats you miss next year, or next month for that matter!
Great post!
I am taking a non paid day off on Nove 2 to help get out the vote for Bush!
I would take the day off from school (just have 2 classes) if I were closer.
I am taking vaction days Nov. 1,2, and 3. The 1st and 2nd are camapign volunteer days, Nov. 3rd is to rest and recover from CELEBRATING OUR VICTORY!!
GO PRESIDENT BUSH!!!!
What part of OH? What exactly are you doing?
All parts of Ohio.
It's the 72 hour Get Out The Vote effort -- going door to door, phone banking, driving people to the polls, etc.
Interested? send me a private message...
I think you worry too much - (just my thought)
If the Repubs. can keep track and correct all the attempts at fraud - I don't see a problem -
The media and many others in Washington D.C. evidently don't know the American citizen as well as they pretend - it's either that or it's something in the air around them - or both.
I feel President Bush's base and more will be out there for him -
just my opinion -
To all the Bush supporters who have not contributed to the Bush campaign or the Swiftboat Vets financially ( or did not have the means to do so):
HERE IS YOUR CHANCE!
Time you can volunteer before or on Election Day can make a difference by bringing even just one more person to the polls for Bush! Wow! That's pretty powerful.
I hope you are right, but I believe we must act as if you are wrong. Better to worry and not take chances. We can laugh about excessive worrying after a Bush victory -- or cry about underestimating the Dems after a Kerry victory.
I live in Michigan and was considering going to Ohio until the race tightened and I spoke with the GOP. I have decided to stay here and have volunteered for Friday, Saturday, Sunday and election day as part of the 72 Hour Plan (called 96 Hour here).
Bless you Sarge!! I voted Wednesday. I was going to vote on Nov. 2nd, but I was in the building where they were doing the early voting for another reason, and just decided to stop in and vote. Easier than waiting and fighting long lines!!
Please post contact information!!!! Or send it to me privately!!!
Please send me the local contact # in michigan for the GOP.
The phone number for the Michigan GOP is 877.644.6704. E-mail address is 72Hour@migop.org.
If you've got the time, the best way to help out is by contacting the RNC and volunteering for their 72 hour campaign.

They'll direct you to where you're needed the most. And it looks like they'll comp you for it. Any extra help to get out the vote is a good thing. Even if a Bush victory is in the bag (which the polls indicate is not the case) it'd be all the better to move the numbers out of the margin of error/contestation. No sense in letting the Dems "10,000 lawyers in waiting" decide this election.
Here's what I wrote for the last election:
Hire 'em or Fire 'em... your last chance to Vote-
