Put your ear to the ground. The Calvary is coming.

There is a lot of doom and gloom settling in on the threads today. As we head to the finish line in the 2004 election, many of us are feeling the strain and a lot of worry. You'd have to be an ostrich not to see what's gone on in past elections and we all know that the Left will pull out all the stops this time in an effort to regain the White House. However, the thing you should know is that the Democrat machine is having to work harder than ever this year against an extremely effective GOP steamroller that is working every area of the country.

There is still time for you to make a difference in this race. If you are a person who is particularly worried about fraud, volunteer to poll watch. There are never enough eyes. By being a part of the solution, you will feel more confident in the process in your local community. If you are a person who is really worried about turnout, contact your local Republicans and go work for a few hours making phone calls or whatever they need for you to do. If it's too late for that, look within your own circle and get out the vote tomorrow. Drive people to the polls if they need transportation, help in finding their polling place, or maybe just some support because they are new or infrequent voters.

You may have noticed that the majority of those who are working in the campaign seem up beat and confident as we go into the last 24 hours of this race. They see what's really happening out there and in most areas, it's VERY good. George Bush is in a position of strength with election day only hours away. He is leading or closing the gap in states that no one dared to believe he would do well in. Step away from the keyboard for an hour or two, get out there in the grass, and you will feel the rumble under your feet. I think Ronald Reagan's Silent Majority is stepping up to the microphone and is about to make a statement.

The good news really, really out weighs any bad news coming out. People need to know that it's going our way. I wish someone would point out the bad news to back up the gloom.

Can't be said often enough.

calvary:
1 : an open-air representation of the crucifixion of Jesus
2 : an experience of usually intense mental suffering

Were you looking for cavalry?

I think you mean "Cavalry" not "Calvary."

local news station had to cut off excerpts of Kerry today as to avoid the contrast in crowd response to Bush's enthusiastic events in PA etc. while Kerry is luring mini-crowds that barely cheer.

Especially:

2 : an experience of usually intense mental suffering

Such as when the Dems take the White House.

Ahm.... not flaming....
Sorry... Just a minor spelling correction is in order... please.

Calvary = Location of the greatest victory ever recorded
Cavalry = Mounted army riding to the rescue

IMHO.... we need both...
May God bless America
May America respond to sustain the blessings....

Have a great day

I'm sure he will. It was the reversal of what was being conveyed that was amusing. Rather like an ad by a former employer that used "illusive" (it's not there but you think it is) instead of "elusive" (it is there but you can't find it).

IMHO on the order of what the Democrat rank & file should be doing to those who hijacked their party.
