I did two canvassing runs today.
and then went and saw Wayne Powell speak with elleng who drove in.
We had an hour together at a local restaurant and then went to Powell's rally. About 100+ people at the rally. I recognized one woman who was in our house in 2008 when we did a last weekend launch.
Ellen is magnificient and truly a pleasure to meet.
Does canvassing work?
Great article here on both efforts in Ohio

Might be better to say ". . . and then went, with elleng, who drove in, to see Wayne Powell speak."
Nevertheless, thank you so much for your work and let's hope Obama carries VA again!

I can't put myself in that position, specially considering the condition of my company right now.
I have offered to do many other things and all they want me to do is canvass. I did that many times.
Local organizer said I couldn't get a sign until I canvassed. Guess that explains why there are no Obama signs in the neighborhood.

Not a bad turnout.
Hopefully this will be the year we can rid the country of Cantor.
Kick in to the DU tip jar?
This week we're running a special pop-up mini fund drive. From Monday through Friday we're going ad-free for all registered members, and we're asking you to kick in to the DU tip jar to support the site and keep us financially healthy.
As a bonus, making a contribution will allow you to leave kudos for another DU member, and at the end of the week we'll recognize the DUers who you think make this community great.
