Great book. Concise, thoughtful, well-researched and convincing. I'm convinced we're on the right track to rebuild our party.
I've never done this before but I find myself involved in politics. On Saturday I'm making phone calls for John Pavich (IL 11th) and on Sunday canvassing for Tammy Duckworth (IL 6th). Monday is more calling and Tuesday I leave work early for door knocking. As a result of my efforts (oh yeah, hundreds of other people too) we just may pick up two seats this November.
It's hard to make the time but I've found it's easy to get involved. Democratic candidates need the help and it feels good to be taking action for something I believe in. I'm frustrated that I can't do more.
I'm not entirely sure what point I want to make here other than to try and encourage others to do what I'm doing. Get involved in your district or the one next door or the one next to that. Every little bit helps in what I like to think of as the corollary to the 50 state strategy - the 435 district strategy.
See you in the trenches.
