With just 22 days left, we need positive forward looking people like these great posters-

22 days til 11/6/2012 and the booths open. 22 days and 17 hours and 39minutes til the west coast voting booths close(and a few hours later for Hawaii!) Remember to think of 192
If we have 192 anytime before 11pm eastern time, we win, as 78 votes from 4 blue states are yet to be counted (California/Washington/Oregon and Hawaii). 192 before 11pm eastern time is the goal(or many, many more.

Here is a list of the positive posters we are looking for-

It is a flawed philosophy, not only with regards to this election, but in general.

"If only we are optimistic enough things will be fine" - "If things go wrong it is because of the pessimists."

It's a popular, and deeply false, way of looking at things, which has cost lives.

Start kicking for the climb ahead!
