I'.m not into "one-issue" voting, but I do think this is worth addressing.

I'm not so sure "little guys" holding out on funding would cause all that much of a splash? I don't know how much Joe Sixpack contributes? But it sems a better strategy than withholding your vote. If the GOP took notice, the water could easily be turned back on.

Why don't we, Joe Six pack send our esteemed Congressmen and Senators pesos bills in an envelope with the caption, that they will get just pesos for their reelection campaign, if the Border Issue is not addressed in earnest.
I will bet 100 to 1 that this stunt will get their attention, more so than their lousy polls.

Moreover, since we know that the politicians life line is "cash", a message like this will sent shock wave thru their ranks if it becomes real.

For this to be effective we need to start doing it just about know, before the elections, and put them on notice!
