I glad to read that, but I don’t know if it’s true. I voted this morning in Northern Virginia in a district that includes Mount Vernon and some lower income areas too. Whereas it took me not 15 minutes to vote in 2004, this time it took an hour and a half. I was in a line that snaked through an elementary school for about 300 yards, and in my judgment not 1 in 20 of the people standing in line with me were likely McCain supporters. Seriously, most appeared to be yutes — one holding his skateboard — and minorities.

Obama campaign so worried about turnout in Virginia and Missouri that they are activating "backup" volunteers to make calls from home.

I hope the gist of the report is true, but this statement is just plain silly.

What exactly would they be saving "backup volunteers" for? Next week's election?

If you are GOP, and not a troll, get to the polls. Any trouble, spend the time to report it.

It will be worth it in the end. At least you can sleep tonight knowing you did all you could.

Can the Dems call those voters sleeping in a drunken stupor on their park bench? Or, is the problem is that there is only one phone in the prison set up to receive calls?

Ah yes, the dead are being activated, and directed to the polling places.

Activated backup volunteers.

I hope this is true just so I can watch major Garret have a nervous breakdown on tv, he has been embedded so far up Obama’s butt it would be a thing of glory to force him to report on an Obama defeat.

Last night after he got done eulogizing Obama’s grandmother, Major said again and again that teh Obama team sees “ZERO” chance of him losing.

The real test will be with Chris Matthews.

If that tingly feeling running down his leg is his own tears, we’ll know Obama has lost.

Good news.... not yet.

We must continue to get out the conservative vote!

Go out and vote, get your family to vote, get your friends to vote, make calls, volunteer to drive people to the polls...don't give up....keep going!

We can stop, consider and analyze all of the good news once all of the polls are closed!

They don’t need turnout. They just need precinct workers willing to stuff the ballot boxes.

So has the assumption in the Osama camp been that they'd win this not by converting people who have tended to vote Republican in the past but by bringing so many *new* voters to the polls that they'd pull it out? If so,poor turnout could well be a good thing.

Call and talk to everyone you know who may be a after work or evening voter too just ignore all news and exit polls.
Tell them to VOTE no matter what and tell them to pass this message on.

Even when they’re offered MORE free pie, they can’t bother to drag their azzez off the sofa to go vote.

I sent out a massive email last week to every single emailbox in the US. Here is what it said:

Conservatives and Republicans can Vote Tuesday November 4th 2008. Liberals and Democrats can Vote Wednesday November 5th 2008.

I dont know what this means or what will happen. But I find it hard to believe and somewhat odd that the exit polling data isnt flying out by now!
