I wish her well, but she’s walking a tough road - there are probably something like 200,000 households in her district.

so few are active, that when a small team does get moving, results happen. Scott Brown had thousands active in each congressional district. All the wannabees think it just happened on it's own in Massachusetts and that grassroots isn't a necessity. Why do people think that this type of activity isn't crucial? Too trivial?

"How many people can you possibly reach that way?", is a typical reaction I get from GOP folks. (I recall doing 800 houses as part of a 2-man team in a 10-hour day ... and another day when we did 1900 flyers without ringing doorbells. And we did 1000 windshield flyers one evening at WalMart, Lowe's, etc.) I have stopped until I again find a campaign that values People Power.
