Tennesee, it is not the 72 hour plan, it is something like "Project 96" or something like that. It was prototyped in the Colorado Senate Race. Something like 2000 volunteers meet at the Denver Airport, (they expected 1000) 96 hours before the election deadline and begain a very interesting project. This project includes phone banks, getting rides for undeceided voters that haven't voted, and people walking door to door to get GOP and Independents to Vote. I read about it here on the Freep from someone who claimed to be part of this project and I can't find the link. I am sure at some point this will get some "Big Time" visibility on the political shows, radio and TV.

This project includes phone banks, getting rides for undeceided voters that haven't voted, and people walking door to door to get GOP and Independents to Vote. I don't know that this is a special project, but in my state (MD) the GOP did this stuff in earnest for the first time. We got a GOP gov. for the first time in 36 years.
This effort is just one of the things that other GOP contenders are looking at to copy for other races in the future.
I think it's all good. But Ehrlich also had the advantage of having supremely stupid opponent. She's a Kennedy, so maybe that balances stupid. I dunno.
