I dont want to hear about what champagne you'll be drinking or...

[yourguide]

whether you'll be flying your flag, or what kind of pie you'll be eating on Nov 4/5.

What I want to hear about is right now.

I want to know what you are doing to get undecideds to vote obama.

I want to know what you are doing about the apathetic and disenchanted voters who think this election doesnt matter.

I want to know what you are doing in Ohio, Missouri, Nevada, North Carolina, & Florida where the polls still show us within the MOE, thus those states are still steal-able.

I want to know that not only have you voted early if you can, but who else you are taking to vote early, and who else you are taking on Nov. 4th.

WE HAVE NOT WON THIS! Pay attention, we havent won this, and we wont know who wins it until the 4th (hopefully).

This can be stolen, some stupid October surprise could drop, any number of things can change. 2 weeks is a lifetime in politics.

Dont get too cocky, dont be overconfident, be driven, determined, and focused NOW. Worry about your pie, and your flag, and your champagne after you've dropped off your last carload of voters from the polls on Nov. 4th.

The Obama campaign keeps reminding it's team of New Hampshire, Rachael Maddow said tonight that we shouldnt be too overconfident. I think maybe some on this board should be reminded of it as well.

1. I'll be the designated cocky, overconfident one.

But I'll be drinking a root beer float, not champagne.
And there may be some happy pie well eaten. :*

2. Early voting in Florida favors McCain...

Its favoring us everywhere else but dammit I want us to win Florida. We cannot get complacent. The OP is spot on.

6. Uhm, yeah right.

Florida had a 56% turnout for Dems, and a 30% turnout for republickins...someone's full of shit.

3. Ahhh, the lecture du jour, or one of many. They sort of run together after awhile.

The Obama team has a right to remind us. I'm not sure if every third anonymous poster at DU does.

4. I've got all but a couple of my clients voting for Obama.

What more do you want, lol?

Oh, and for the record: Veuve Clicquot and sweet potato pie.

5. You have to let people have their brief..

moments of sunshine. I feel as you do, and I cringe when I read posts about after the fact. This is still such an uphill battle. We know what can happen, and we have to do everything we can to outvote them by a serious margin or we won't make it. But everyone needs a reprieve every now and then.
