Which means you can focus your attentions, energies, monies and blogsies in Georgia where it will do the most good. Jim Martin is in a dogfight down there, and he needs your help to beat the guy who unfairly sullied Max Cleland's good name in 2002.

Early voting begins this week across the state. Early voting information is found here and I encourage any readers who are in-state to vote this week and then find the event or office closest to you and go help out. Boots on the ground, folks! Eyes on the ball, etc. If you'd like to begin volunteering full-time or anywhere close to it, use the Martin campaign's signup tool.
