I made with a donation, finally. I had been so alienated by incessant phone calls that I almost said screw it. And it enrages me that I just basically transferred money that I need to some local station conglomerate media company in Ohio. And that elections are decided by money. But I just can’t bring myself to give nothing.
Are political campaigns aware that their endless junk emails and other CRM-style efforts alienate some people? Surely they must be. Calling my phone 2 and 3 times a day is not the way to get me to answer your calls.

You jest, but this storm comes at a really bad time. It can take a while for emergency response to ramp up after a disaster, no matter how prepared they are. If it looks like Obama ‘abandoned’ Virginia or whatever that could give Mitt unearned talking points right before the voting.
I’m not concern trolling, just extrapolating from previous natural disasters and the immediate politicization.
ETA: and anything that goes wrong with teh response/remediation, whether state, county or local will be portrayed as Obama’s Katrina. You know it will.

I have a different experience. I get a couple calls a day from Team Obama reminding me to vote. I enjoy talking to them and making the connection with like-minded people. We are universally optimistic about what’s gonna happen next Tuesday.
Being an Oregonian I auto-voted on Monday this week. Drove my Honda up to the drive-in window at a trailer/kiosk set up in the parking lot of the county elections office and handed the nice man who leaned out my ballot. No one tried to harass me or yell at me or wave a sign in my face or question my ID or interfere in any way/shape/form with my right to vote. Waited in line 30 seconds. Then went to our well funded library to pick up the DVDs I reserved on their website. Oregon really makes it easy. Liberals did that.

Question for those of you who read right wing blogs. (I can’t. I’m old and it’s bad for my blood pressure.)
Are they talking about early voting like a lot of posts I see on LW blogs? The lefty posts all says “heavy turnout and excited voters.” What’s the talk from right-wing world?

Hey very smart BJ commenters-my wingnut brother, and others, are posting about how Pres Obama watched the part of the attack in Libya in the Situation Room and then went to bed. Saying that he personally made the decision to not send help to the consulate when they called for help twice. Any idea where this info is coming from? They are all up in arms that this info is completely being ignored by the “liberal media”. My brother is a retired Major, so people think he knows what he’s talking about.

The one thing that concerns me about states like Ohio is that Ralph Reed is out there again trying to drive the evangelical vote. IIRC, one of the reasons why OH and other states tipped red in 2004 was motivated right wing churchgoers.
I’ve seen reports here and elsewhere that there is a lot of obvious GOTV activity from Democrats and almost none from Republicans in several states, but don’t let that lull you into complacency. They may not be going from door to door, but they are pretty damn certain to be doing a lot through churches.

@Comrade Mary:
The thing is, in 2004, they Republicans needed to whip up the wingers because there was such widespread disillusionment with Bush. Many people were beginning to sour on the Iraq invasion because it was dragging on with no apparent progress. That’s why they put all those anti-gay/lesbian issues on the ballot in swing states, including Ohio.
This year, the Republicans do not need to whip up the wingers. They have been whipped up since January 20, 2009. They hate the president. Ralph Reed can’t get anyone to the polls who wasn’t already planning on going.

Those worried that Obama is in peril regarding the Election are correct. Sides at the Monkey Cage said that the electorate always blames the incumbent for natural disasters according to their research.
He said one way to alleviate some of the damage at the ballot box is to declare it a federal disaster area quickly.
This has all made me very angry & sad at once. Unbelievable you’re fired for a natural disaster! VA & NH & maybe OH will be affected adversely. He has a lead in PA so he thinks that state may be ok. NOT RIGHT!

We have been ID’ing for both Obama and Brown for months, and the Sherrod not-Obama voter definitely exists.
Part of it is how well they know Sherrod, statehouse, sec of state, US House, Senator and part of it is he’s genuinely responsive, he really is a good public servant, but part of it is race.
That said, it’s a good “fit” at the top of the ticket, because they need each other, Brown and Obama. Brown brings labor enthusiasm and Obama brings AA enthusiasm, and Democrats in OH need BOTH. They’ll both benefit.

@cat48: as a fellow worrywart, let me stick up for your right to post about your anxieties, but past performance does not always guarantee results. Until 2008, it was conventional wisdom that “the curse of the Hill” meant no ticket could win with two legislators on it (true since Kennedy). Until 2008, it was conventional wisdom that no Democratic ticket could win without a Southerner (true since…. Cleveland? I’m counting Wilson as a native son of the South). The press notwithstanding, Mittmentum has actually been pretty consistently fading for the last week. The gap is even shrinking in that Gallup outlier. I still think it’s tied, my stomach’s in knots and and I think I have stress induced lockjaw, or something like it (I’m trying to stop that). But it’s far from over.

@Davis X. Machina:
In a CNN exit poll in the 2008 Ohio Democratic primary, 20% of the Hillary Clinton voters voted for her mainly because of her skin color compared to Barack Obama’s.

Even if the response is perfect, the simple fact people lost power and coastal areas got flooded and can’t be repaired until flood waters recede will be enough for Fox News to declare this “[N]Obama’s Katrina”.
