Just Came Home from Representative Bill Foster's Local Campaign Kick-off

He accurated stated that it wasn't the his oppenent, the tea party, or the mood of the country that posed the greatest challenges this election cycle, it was voter apathy. However, there were twice as many people at this kick-off than there were during the 2008 election kick-off for Foster. Apathy? Perhaps not!

In Illinois, we have a no excuse necessary early voter ballot that I will be pushing door-to-door for Bill foster over the next 45 days.

 

Excellent news !!!!
I am glad and not at all suprised that you are involved beyond the piss and moan stragety of doing nothing and then complaining about it.

I also am involved. I am a volunteer on the David Schweikert campaign for District 5 here in AZ. Phone banks, yard signs, bumber stickers, voter registration, etc etc etc. I hope to help unseat 2 term Harry Mitchell

We both have earned our right to bitch !!!!!

 

LOL enjoy the door knocking and dont end up doing what one guy I knew did when the person who answerd the door began berating and swearing at him LOL He picked him up and placed him in the garbage can
The candidate took him back later to apologise (Honest it happend)

 

Good luck with your campaign Jack! I have met so many people just today that have inspired me to get involved at every level from local to national politics. I live in a very conservative district (Denny Hasserts old seat) and yet we have a democrat as Mayor and a Democratic city council, Dixon, IL (Home of Ronald Reagan) and in my congressional district has a Democrat as Mayor. We have two Republican state senators that are very moderate good people. We work together well in this area in spite of being from two different political parties. Too bad national politics doesn't work this well. 45 days left until the big day!

 

America is awake and active !!! That is a good sign !

I also noticed much more energy today than I did the last election. Whether your on the right or the left, get active and promote your cause.

Mr Moen and I will be fighting to cancel each others vote, but hey, at least we doing it.

Yannow what, I had ALMOST as much fun today at a campaign as I would have had fishing. To some of us , politics.....I think it is an addiction.....at least a hobby
