GET YOUR VOTE IN: It Will All Be Decided By February 6, 2008!

















I would bet few of you are thinking about the presidential election (like most other Americans.) Did you know the decision will be swift and you might miss your chance to participate? Every vote counts (and will hopefully be accurately counted) in this contest that's likely to be decided by February 6th! Then we'll all have to throw our support behind whichever candidate has won the numbers game.

Will it be the advertised favorite Clinton? Can Obama's stardom push him past her in the final stretch? Will Edwards come from behind? Is Dodd doing a surprise end run? Does Kucinich have a shot at it? Biden is apparently moving up in the polls, does he have a chance? It's all up to YOU! If you live in one of the following states you need to GET BUSY and...

1) Decide on a Candidate (don't be embarrassed if you haven't decided yet, be informed! It may help to watch the videos below).

2) Donate to that candidate (if you can).

3) Promote that candidate to your circle of contacts.

4) Make sure your voter registration etc. is in order.

5) Check, re-check, and double-check the date of your primary/caucus with your state registrar (or applicable entity.)

6) GET YOUR ASS TO THE POLLS ON THAT DATE!
