Here is the 50 state strategy in action as it breaks down on the county level.

Ryan, a young Waukesha organizer for Obama registering voters in record numbers in heavily republican Waukesha CO, WI, the bastion of conservativism, the home county of James Sensenbrenner. I bumped into his group on Saturday in New Berlin on the Farmers Market. He is the type of guy who's inspiring thousands and making republicans sweat precious dollars for every vote they used to getting by default as they start to lose even their most devoted following.

That day marked the 100th day before election. Everybody needs to get involved, organize, help, do house parties, phonebanks, canvass your neighborhood etc. The more people we register the more chance we have in November. Republicans have to keep people from voting, we have to get them engaged. This is the most important 100 days of our lives, Obama has to win, there is no other way to get back our country!

1. Whoa "the who are you supporting" question was my idea I emailed as some were promoting Obama to...

die hards and taking insults. I emailed to say they should ask how they are voting first then move along if they declare Republican and just reach for new voters.

2. that's a good idea

besides, there are enough new converts among loyal GOP voters that it's worth taking a few insults and keeping the party leadership on their toes even in heavily republican districts: that's how they bleed money so we can turn swing states easier. I encountered conservatives while canvassing who were open to discussing politics and even said they will vote for Obama. This in a neighborhood where I couldn't even get a friendly smile 2 years ago.
