like Trump is going down. Please do whatever is needed in your community to tell people or get people to vote. Work the phones. Offer to take folks, who do not have transportation, a lift to the polls. It's too important. Anything could happen in the next four weeks to upend things. Trump and his followers are not just stupid but "stupid dangerous". Never ever did I think that in the many decades as a voter I would feel this way. We have a crazy person running for President backed by not just nutty followers but a dangerous enemy.
Vigilance is the price of liberty and our democracy is held together by the delicate thread of perseverance.

(5,902 posts)Hillary herself pledged to run "as if we were 10 points behind." Wise words from a lady who's seen a thing or two in politics.

No time to start thinking "Oh, well, since she's up by 9 or 10 points, I can just stay home or do something else, and not vote."

(20,591 posts)We cannot react to current changes with hubris because that is just a set-up for being taken down.
This is not a done deal as anything can happen. I am sure they (trump) are holding something for 3 or 4 days before the election that they think may change the numbers.
good phrase - delicate thread of perseverance.

(3,602 posts)Why, so we can get a real landslide for Hillary, and a Democratic Senate and House. Then after Jan 20, we need to press like hell to keep the Democrats being Democrats. None of this bipartisan consensus shit. You were elected as Democrats, now govern as Democrats.
If the Rumpers are stupid enough to try armed insurrection, use the full power of the US Government to crush it. And I mean CRUSH.

(15,064 posts)personal calls. Also door to door. Even conversations with strangers when I see an opportunity. It's a little tough to just blindside someone with politics but if I see an opening I go for it.
