One thing Iowa shows is that a large voter turnout favors the Democrats
Which is another reason I am so pissed by our Democratic leaders in Congress for doing very little since 2000 to insure that your vote counts

2. I think this has always been pretty much true,
pointing to the reason the repubs are always trying to keep people from voting. They only want wingers to vote.

3. Fortunately, I don't think they know who is going to crossover to
vote Democratic this year. But everyone should still be on their guard about votes getting caged and any other rovian tactic.

4. I have always said that if every eligible voter in the US voted...
The republicons would never be in power. They would always be the minority in both senate and house and never get a president elected.
But they resort to every trick they can to discourage voters and steal elections because they know too that it is the only way they will win.

5. That is essentially what Micahael Moore said also. Maybe people will understand this time
THAT IT DOES MAKE A DIFFERENCE
