old saying (can't remember where it's from) that said, they will keep up the pretense of democracy only so long as it's necessary - once they have enough power they will drop even the pretense and will be a fascist state outright.

I think that old saying has some truth in it and I'm wondering...how close are we to being there now?

6. Damn close !!! After Citizens United...
...The ONLY thing that matters is getting voters to the polls on November 2nd.

You can help do that.

Volunteer down at Democratic HQ. They need people to make phone calls, knock on doors, compile lists of local events, do data entry, etc.

Help others get their early ballots in case they can't get out on election day.

Get a yard sign.

Talk to your cousin/nephew/aunt etc.

We need to focus on this or the next two years of DU will be not about how to improve the country, but about limiting damage.

thanks,

Scuba
