This is a short diary but I thought it might make a few smile and hoping that it starts to get media play. While watching a little bit of MSNBC's Newsnation, they had Michael Smerconish on and he made a comment that I wasn't thinking but when I heard it, it was a HOLLY CRAP moment...follow below the orange of knowledge
I can't get the video up but to paraphrase it, Smerconish commented that we don't really have 40 days left to the election, some states are starting to vote RIGHT NOW and Ohio starts voting in less than a week. Another member of the panelists that was on, a GOP strategists commented how in Elizabeth Dole's campaign, they ran an ad that had tested well and that 86% of the people who saw the ad would not have voted for the opponent, he didn't mention who it was but I assume it was Kay Hagan. The problem that he pointed out was that 67% of the people had already voted. So Romney who is currently losing the election could actually LOSE THE ELECTION RIGHT NOW!!!!!!
So as we not only try to register people to vote, lets also remind them that they can vote in some states RIGHT NOW. The website www.270towin.com actually has a section where you can find out what states have early voting both by absentee and in person early voting.
If we can run up the score early it can offset for any possible problems down the road.
Moving Forward to Success
