2016 Postmortem
Related: About this forumWhat are you doing tomorrow to help the President get reelected?
Here is mine:
First, my wife and I are calling and emailing to the middle of the alphabet for our precinct to get our single - quintuple D's to get them to commit to the date that they will early vote.
Sunday we'll call the last part of the alphabet.
Next week we will start calling the "No history" folks.
Tomorrow, after we call our precinct (I'm precinct chair), we'll call in to North Carolina for the President.
What about you?
I have edited the whining part so as to not encourage trolls.

(36,437 posts)Just sayin'. You're "encouraging advisors?" You have a special meeting or something?
Who's your precinct captain? Where's your local office? Do you even know? Or are you too busy internet advising?

(36,437 posts)You're an internet advisor. Good on ya, intenet advisor. While the rest of us are pounding the pavement trying to actually do something, you go ahead and keep up your uber-important forum advising!

(2,404 posts)to campaign as heavily this election as I did in 2008, but I am talking to people, giving out flyers, and whipping out the credit card pretty often.
Also making sure everyone I know who is pro-Obama plans on voting.
