What we all know codified: Bush motivates the anti-Bush base

"In the torrent of polling information released over the weekend, the most significant finding was this one: John Kerry's supporters are more likely than George W. Bush's to believe that this year's election is the most important of their lifetimes.

According to Newsweek's poll, 37 percent of Kerry's voters felt this way, compared with only 27 percent of Bush's. Of the rest, 40 percent of Kerry supporters thought 2004 was more important than most other elections, while 35 percent of Bush's backers did.

As a political matter, this intensity gap suggests that even if Bush has been successful in mobilizing the Republican Party's political base, he has been even more successful in mobilizing Democrats."

1. Damn right it's important.

And I'm going to take 3 days off of work (pre-, election day, and post-) to be sure I'm doing my part to get out the vote in Wake County, NC--on top of everything else I'm doing.

Folks, if you haven't contacted your local Democratic party headquarters to volunteer, DO IT NOW.

YOUR ACTION can swing this election. YOU can make a difference.

Do whatever you can. This election is too important for you to stay at home watching returns. Be a part of the returns. Drive shut-ins to the polls. Phone-bank. Knock on doors. Talk to your friends and neighbors about why you're voting for John Kerry. Do whatever you can do.

Every one of us can make a difference. It's more important now than ever before!
