5. i have logged some miles, but
i know many people who have logged thousands and thousands. they gave the 9th cd, which is a big chunk of chicago, iowa. which means at least a 3 hour drive, sometimes closer to 5, just to cross the border into "our" state. people were going every other weekend starting right after the last primary. so many people wanted to do it that by about the second weekend after the conventions they had started going every weekend. after the convention, they started renting busses.

but really the point of my post was to say just how smart this campaign is to spend election night with the people who made it happen. not 100 of them, not 1000 of them, not 10,000, probably not even 100,000. a city full of them. those that are not out there will be watching. if they try to steal it, no one in chicago will have to be convinced that elections can be stolen. we will just come together. how smart of them to know that he may need a citizen's army. and to give him one.
wicked smart they are. wicked smart.
