There’s always a drop off in votes between president and every other office; many people only vote for president. Why not focus on the Senate seats and thereby also boost presidential voters? Also work to get a divided Congress - independents are much more likely to want too see a divided government even if the buy the liberal change fantasy for prez.

I have no problem with a maximum effort to elect conservative senators. The idea it will work while abandoning the top of the ticket is a fantasy. It simply doesn't work that way, because people are motivated much more by the presidential election, because teh Congressional seats rely a lot on each local personality and local issues, and because the democrat ticket will jhave cottails you are denying the GOP ticket.

We need to get behind McCain and strongly, if we are to save our country. At the moment I don't think it will happen, I see all the hatred that is out here. It's a shame and it is about to give us a liberal Congress, White House and Supreme Court for the next generation.
