Please consider giving to Heidi. Her seat is worth saving, because Senate Committee chairs are held by the majority. All Senate seats held by Dems are worth fighting for.
Every morning I treat my fellow canvassers to coffee. I'm donating a week's worth of coffee to Heidi.

Sorry to say but activists are working harder than our national party.
Taylor Swift did more for Democrats than the DNC.
I'm convinced once again that our perennial disease of "tone deafness" has taken root at the top.
Did anyone see the NBC News segment doing man on the street interviews at Southern Cal?
Did anyone see the deer in the head lights response when the reporter asked a large group of students "who's voting in Nov"? *crickets*
I've been beating the same drum for weeks...why not a National Rally?
Do this but not that?
I'm pounding the pavement just like many many other DU'ers, doing GOTV.
Many many teevee watchers are only seeing tRump rally's, tRump lies, the Kavanaugh dog and pony show.....
Is it too damn much to ask the national party to show up?
Winning Truth vs Preception? Apprentice staging of 7pm Kavanaugh ceremony will
get coverage.... such coverage wins the day...
I say Democrats must do it all...ground, phone, text, bus tours.....AND a national
Rally.
Leave nothing to chance....use all the tools in ou tool box...a National Rally should be a no brainer.

I've said it before and say it again. The Democrats need to hold big venue get out the vote
rallies with as many big names as possible.
The kind of rallies that get covered by national media.
Rallies that energize voters, rallies that focus on young voters, etc etc.
In terms of the national stage, It just feels quiet.
I like Sen Chis Coons, so does Sen Jeff Flake, except
Sen Flake sold Sen Coons a faulty bill of goods, and
Sen Coons being a good guy never would consider that Sen Flake would sell him a fake- not a genuine FBI investigation, but a fraud, a look a lIke.
So it’s safe to say Sen Coons was used by the enemy because he thought he had a friend who would be straight with him.,,but in truth, was a Trojan Horse..,,filled with lying old GOP
curmudgeons. Snarling, vengeful drunk on power men.
Sen Coons was had. He did the best he could, but he needs to face the fact that his friend had no intention whatsoever of real compromise- Flake had to know the White House would totally control and limit the FBI Investigation thereby making it impotent, neutered, no there there.
I wonder what Sen Coons thinks about how Sen Flake stands by the FBI sham investigation so much so that he now will vote yes.
Stop this right now!!!
Posted down thread for our edification is an article from the Daily Beast that has a lot of analysis and words.
The article from the Daily Beast talks about Kavanaugh- but I StOPPED reading at
"Democrats fear"
Over the many years hasn't that exactly been the problem "Democrats fear"?

This is EXACTLY the unbelievable feeling those of us who witnessed the SCOTUS stopping
the 2000 Florida vote count.
How can this be? Where are the rational minds? The 2000 election was stollen right from under our noses! Now Kavanaugh?
why aren't we having a national get out the vote rally, with entertainers and colorful speakers?
Hold on! Stop the presses! Aren't there more of us than them???
Supposedly the deplorable base is now energized because of *gasp* Naughty McNaughterson
Democrats casting shade on widdle Kavie?
Post card parties and letters to the editor are the new front in this war.
Onward!
Newspapers, from Susan Collins hometown, to consertative Columbus Ohio say
Kavanaugh's very own behavior last Friday is egrious enough to not confirm him.
Yet.
Today, all day, it will hinge on the FBI report.
I will continue to contact GOP Senators and hammer home that Kavanaugh showed America his temper and extreme partisanship and who he really is now, and going forward.
Per McConnell FBI report out very late tonight, and ONLY Senators will be authorized to read.
So there you have it.
