Let's do a thought experiment: It's November 3 and Bush has just won the election. What's going through your mind? Personally, I'm feeling remorse, thinking to myself, "I wish I could have just donated $10 more bucks, or volunteered for one more afternoon registring voters."
What's it worth to you that Bush isn't elected? Can you put a value on it?
Donate whatever you can to the Kerry campaign. Even $5 helps.
Volunteer with ACT to register voters. Even just 1 afternoon!
Print out a kerry sign and put it in your window.
Write a letter to your local newspaper. Find their conact info here. Need some talking points? There are some about Iraq below the cut.
If Bush wins in November, that sucks. But don't wake up on November 3rd wishing you could go back in time and do something about it. Do something about it NOW!

- Americans are dying, and the number is increasing. Forty-two Americans died in Iraq in June -- the month before the handover. Fifty-four died in July, 66 died in August, and 54 soldiers have already died in September.
- More than 1,100 Americans were wounded in Iraq in August -- more than in any other month since invasion.
- Our soldiers are fighting a growing insurgency in an ever widening war zone. In March, insurgents attacked American forces in 700 separate assaults. In August, they initiated 2,700 attacks -- a 400% increase.
- Falluja, Ramadi, Samarra, and even parts of Baghdad, are now "no go zones" and breeding grounds for terrorists who plot and launch attacks against American soldiers.
- Violence against Iraqi civilians is on the rise from bombings to kidnappings to intimidations.
- Unemployment in Iraq is more than 50 percent.
- Basic living conditions are deteriorating. Residents of Baghdad are suffering electricity blackouts lasting up to 14 hours a day. Raw sewage fills the streets.
- The world is a much more dangerous place today because the president was wrong in the way he prepared for and waged war in Iraq.
