Looks like OHIO may be this year's battle to the death.

My town is pretty repub, although not disgustingly so. The mayor is a democrat.
SO---
I will be having those telephone parties for Barack again this year as I did in 2008..calling folks in Ohio.

AND if I have time a may be able to go to Ohio for a few days as well to help out.. Looks like that will be this year's battle to the death.
Don't fire until you see the whites of their eyes. Then let them have it with shrapnel, buckshot, grape, bayonets, canon to the right, canon to the left, canon in front, volley and thunder.....give no quarter...figuratively speaking, of course.

And this time, no hand extended as happened in 2009-10. Fuck 'em.
Maybe later, if a REAL sane republican,(or other) party emerges,, we can talk.. but not now.

Whew ! I don't know what got into me..
In another post a few days ago I had about given up. :&gt )

I wasn't going to phone bank this year here in Trumbull County, but I wandered into the new Democratic HQ today to get a sign and they recruited me into it again.

Thursday at 6:00 I'll be on the phone and no doubt they'll sign me up for an extended tour of duty.

Godspeed and good luck Pangaia, and thank you for your service.

Thanks for the kind words..It is the least I can do.
And you didn't just 'wander' in to the Democratic HQ.. Some mystical force brought you there.
:&gt ) Keep up the good fight...
