campaigning!
jodi writes about getting involved with the current presidential campaign.. a great post, really. and i'm so jazzed there is another blogger jumping on the campaign trail.. when october hits and the seemingly 24 hour days and constant rush of adrenaline have started its nice to know i'm not going to be alone in blogland.
here is what i said in her comments..
yet another great post jodi! just one thing. the other races that are going on.. the less sexy ones.. the local races.. the positions that most folks don't about, the ones that have an affect on your daily life, the economic climate for your city, town, county, state. folks in those campaigns need the help as much as the national campaign does.. in someways more, because their (okay, OUR) candidates aren't getting the press that the presidential candidates are. we don't get nearly the same amount of 'earned' media. so, folks, contact your local democratic party, ask how you can help your neighbor get elected to the office they are running for.. its not as sexy, but you are much more likely to get to meet the candidate :)

You are so right about getting involved in the local elections.
The only way we can make a change is if we get out there and make a difference. So do something.
