10. Me to. I'm in a state that has all chicken$hit senators but
I will work for any senator that is willing to bring democracy back to this country. On the long shot that an actual republican stands up tomorrow I will even work for him or her - and I hate repugs. If a repug has the b*lls to stand up to his party on an issue this important they will have me as a fan. This isn't about getting Kerry elected - it is about returning this country to the people.

61. I second that!
When it comes to paying back any Senators and Reps. who stand with John Conyers, I know no state boundaries. Heck, I'll help Barbara Boxer if she joins the protest, even though she's on the opposite coast. I'll call Sarbanes and Mikulski, tell 'em to be more like Barbara. Anything! ;)

17. Carrot AND stick
"...and if you don't stand for a free, fair and credible vote, I will do everything in my power to defeat you. My foot soldiers stand by, ready to march."

And don't put it all on Senators Boxer, Byrd or Feingold. Target your own senators. It will scare the "bi-partisan cooperation" right out of them.

I hope he's from my state though. Colorado. that may be asking alot of a newly elected Senator but he is an outgoing Attorney General so he should want to investigate this .

39. No Stolen elections took a delegation to Feingolds' office and
delivered a petition with more than 800 signatures. The staff took notes and the group left feeling like they had been heard.
I was not there. But I was able to get about 20 people to make calls today.

35. YES! A real senator with conscience
will get my vote. As Randi Rhodes says let the House and Senate Republicans elect this President. The Supreme Court elected Shrub in 2000. Make the House and Senate choose the next President who will be George Bush, but the Republicans will have to fix this mess and Bush will not have political capital.

52. If this happens, we can start by writing letters to the editor
and calling talk radio and praising these brave individuals as modern-day patriots who really are fighting for democracy. They are going to need us to defend and praise them loudly.

71. We can "virtually" promise them the 2008 Dem Nomination...
...that's just a political calculation (guess) based on 20yrs experience of observation as a cynic (not a dreamer).

But these pledges will do nicely for now.
