A Plank for the GOP

[KeithE]

Maybe the RNC will want to add these narratives to their platform-it fits.

That's pretty good. I'll post it up on facebook and see what kind of reaction it gets.

This is the first time I've lived outside of Texas for a Presidential election for a long time. We're supposed to be a "battleground" state, and I must say, I have certainly seen a lot more in the way of television ads than I ever did in Texas. We're in a "Republican" county, but so far, most of the bumper stickers and yard signs I've seen are for Obama. His neighborhood chairman has been to the door three times so far. They have every county in the state covered with people who are working the neighborhoods to get the vote out, and to help people bypass the restrictive voter ID law. In essence, every Democratic voter in PA who doesn't have a driver's license or photo ID is getting an absentee ballot, the requests for those have already been so high they've had to run several additional printings. Obama has a pretty comfortable lead here, but I don't think they are taking any chances. Apparently they have enough volunteers to cover all the bases here, because they are asking volunteers from Western PA to work in Eastern Ohio.
