The one thing I think people should do that most aren't doing, is call your reps. Especially if they're republican, but call your dem reps, too! I call in my car after one of my weekly appts, but I should call every day. We all should. Our reps absolutely do pay attention to the number of calls & postcards they get.

I'm terribly worried about what will happen between now & the election, & I worry too many of us, me included, have our hopes pinned on the grim reaper.
