Now This is Happening.

A Personal Testimonial from a Friend:

I apologize to anyone who hates politics or supports someone besides Obama, but I had to add this to the email stream. Maybe it's the fact I'm stuck on a train in New Jersey in an ice storm at midnight because some old guy is stone cold drunk (they just took him off the train in handcuffs) or maybe it's the tallboy Buds talking (wow that could have been me), but I wish each and every one of you could have seen what was going on this past week in Virginia and the DC metro area. Jef and I went down to campaign, and speaking for myself, who has campaigned in every election since 1996, I was amazed. People of all ages, races, genders, classes and religions came together to work for something they truly believed in. I myself spent the better part of today walking around Falls Church, VA in dress shoes in freezing rain working for Obama. By the time I was finished, I was one solid ice cube, but a pleased ice cube all the same, what with tonight's outcome. IF any of you are supporters of Obama, and it's no problem if you aren't, I highly recommend you take any opportunity you have to volunteer for the campaign. There are so many things to do, some of which you can do at home; you won't regret it. We really have a unique opportunity as Americans to radically alter the path this country is on, thanks to this year's elections. The stakes couldn't be higher. Thanks.
Obama has a lot of momentum right now, but its not over yet - by a longshot. There's still big contests ahead in Ohio and Texas on March 4, and Pennsylvania in April. If you are interesting in supporting Obama: DONATE OR VOLUNTEER! You can help canvas or phone bank to call voters in one of these states.
