Yes. The Senate is the prize. Of course they will impeach again.

People, please call your local Rep office, even if they do not excite you, and nose your way in. Volunteer. Dress and act nice.

Become a poll watcher. Become a get-out-the-vote phone caller and talker and pamphlet distributor. Ground game is all.

Haul your tired and bored relatives and friends to the polls next fall. Arrange group travel. Arrange babysitting.

If you are an employer, close business that day if possible. If not, make very sure no worker loses hourly money by taking time to vote.

Because the lines will be long. And it will not be fun to stand on line with people who don't agree with you.

The tired old, the bored young, the busy mother, may not vote. Work on that. Every single, yes every single one, every vote counts.

Some will say, oh why bother, this area is totally blue. No. It isn't. Your vote helps.

Some will say, oh why bother, this area is totally red. No worries here. No. Your vote is needed.

And local races matter intensely. Yes, it matters who is dog-catcher. They are in politics now, making decisions, and may rise.

Vote like it's candy. Take something to read, and cookies to much, and ENJOY it.

Your ancestors came here in leaky tubs to vote. Savor it like candy.

What!? You mean they weren't driven to do it by their (newfound) sense of constitutional duty?

I've never been so shocked by a revelation in my life!
