Our guy has run an amazing campaign and we seem to have a comfortable margin to say the least, but I am also not ready to declare victory - no matter how certain the victory looks from here. Let's all seal the deal and then put the stamp on it such that there is no question about the will of the American people. To that end, I am hoping that people will share what they are doing in the comments section...let's see what the efforts of the entire DKos community looks like when we work independently yet together...let's share the amazing thing we are doing.
As I was reflecting, in this time of a final push, it seems that it is time 1) work just a little harder 2) donate a bit more and 3) talk to persuade those who can be persuaded as best we can. I am deeply encouraged by the possibility of a strong finish - one that reverses any predictions of "tightening" in any state and pushes us towards overwhelming landslide and therefore indisputable (and unassailable) mandate.
If you haven't done so already, do something today and tomorrow and every day until the election to make a difference. We could, for example, write or call someone you know in a battleground (or potential battleground) state, donate a few bucks to a campaign that needs it, volunteer at a phone bank for the candiate of your choice, call in to a talk show, put up a yardsign, volunteer to canvass, or put your suggestions of something to do below.
This online community is amazing. I have seen people support each other in hard times as well as share the ideas they hold dear. I have seen people bare their hearts and have seen people respond with wisdom and compassion and focus and determination. For an online community, we are making a remarkable difference - this is a grassroots movement and we are, right now, making history.
In the comments below, add your suggestions or stories of what you are doing in the closing days of this historic compaign. What are you doing that you will be pround to share with your children and grandchildren? Tell us how much time you are spending so that we can all see, as a community, what is happening out there and what a difference we are making by our individual, and en masse, our collective efforts.
Let's inspire one another. I look forward to seeing what all of us, as a community are doing.
