HISTORIC voter participation

[nadinbrzezinski]

My lord, we will actually have people involved in this... WOW

Whoever wins (and we all know who we want to win) will preside over a nation that actually got involved in the process

1. And this is what terrifies the right wing and their media puppets

It's as if the nation is awakening from an 8 year hangover, saw what was going on and collectively said "well we have to put a stop to this BS". I can only imagine how shocking it is to the right wing that old favorites like race baiting, fear mongering and catapulting the propaganda is proving not only ineffective but actually pushed people to the left. The people are going to be heard and this country will only benefit from an engaged electorate.

I for one look forward to being part of this process.

4. Thank you for the welcome!

I have lurked here far to long but rest assured DU has lifted my spirits so many times over the dark years I finally felt compelled to join in if for no other reason then to say thank you to you all.

5. It can get crazy, but all in all....

it is indeed a port in the storm for many of us, especially those of us in RED areas. :)

If your screenname is any indication, we may have been born the same year, so this is quite the historic election for us -- the first ever of this magnitude.

I look forward to seeing you more in the future, when the really hard work begins.

and an aware population always scares conservatives... (at least to the 17th century)
