The President will have no coattails

unless you give them to him.

It's not going to be enough to vote this time around. We have to make sure we get every Democrat (or as close as conceivably possible) out to vote, and make sure they not only vote for Obama but for all the downticket races.

There are a lot of Republicans in House districts that Obama won in a walk in 2008, and should win this year. We have to get levers pulled, circles marked, and buttons pushed for every Democratic candidate.

The best way to do this? Volunteer. Stuff envelopes, phone bank, walk precincts on election day. Get out there and get out the vote.
