Seriously folks, if you've got even a couple of hours on Election Day, they could use all the hands they can get on the Eastside. Get out there, knock on doors, get people to the polls. It's the only way to win this thing.

If you don't vote, don't whine about the war. Period. Or enlist (they lowered the age limits).

Also, if you don't vote, don't whine about losing your social security and being offered a market dependent private account.

Youth could sway tight midterm races

By Jason Szep Wed Nov 1, 3:06 PM ET

BOSTON (Reuters) - Students at University of Tennessee earn a free hot dog when they register to vote, while Montana's students plan a "dorm storm" to rouse classmates from the dormitories to the ballot box on Election Day.

As Republicans fight to keep control of Congress, both parties hope to mobilize young voters who turned out in record numbers in the 2004 presidential election and who some say could tilt Tuesday's congressional races toward the Democrats.

A Harvard poll released on Wednesday shows 32 percent of 18- to 24-year-olds "definitely" plan to vote next week. That would mark the highest youth turnout for a midterm election since 18-year-old Americans were first able to vote. The national voting age was lowered to 18 from 21 by constitutional amendment in 1971.

Somehow, though I'll vote for her because she's -not Republican-, a part of me wonders ... just what experience does Darcy have?
