This is just an amazing piece of truth - I hope everybody who has any relative who is even considering staying home on election day will send them this article - it might help to wake them up.

What would help wake up the vote better would be Republicans acting like Republicans, and acting like they control the majority of government... Or maybe just passing along e-mails, instead of figuring that the party eventually answers to the people who put them there.

I have a theory about this .. when there is so small a group in the majority .. the minority thinks it can run things and it can make it very hard for the majority to get anything done.

However, if we increase the majority .. there is less of a likelihood that the majority will be willing to cave to the minority.

You see how that works ..?? A lot of these people are terrified of the media in DC - because they can damage you - but if you have a whole group who can stand together - there is less chance of any media reports singling out one person.

I know it's not curing the problem of repubs acting like conservatives .. but just being a repub is no guarantee that the person is a conservative! We have to make it easier for them to agree with the conservative viewpoint more often - not less often - by staying home and allowing the minority to gain strength.

Is anybody getting this ..??
