14. "Them" staying home is the best possible outcome.

We need larger numbers in both houses, and they'd hand that to us by staying home and moping.

Hopefully, Romney has only begun to disappoint. Even though the Teahadii have hated him from the get-go, we need the "moderate" Republicans to stay home in droves, as well.

While I despair over the voter ID laws, those laws are disenfranchising many elderly people who would vote (R) against their own self-interest, and that's going to make a difference. We need to get everyone else registered, and all those 18-30 off the couch and into the voting booth.

Willard did us a huge favor with his speech at the NAACP convention - they're going to mobilize to defeat him. But there's still a lot of work to do.

This, for a lot of reasons, is the most important election of my lifetime.
