The Falls Church office ROCKS! I stopped by for yard signs, and they offered me a bumper sticker. I said not on my car, but you got any car magnets? No, they replied, but you could order them online.

Two weeks later they sent me a car magnet in the mail. Seriously, they got game.

Long time lurker and just wanted to say that ALL my music friends in the San Francisco Bay Area are really grateful for this site. I am barely able to contain my growing excitement about the possible transformation of the country - I have been so crushed ever since 1968. I really hope we can keep it up after the election to give the new administration the balls to do the right things..I would hate to see a repeat of the early Clinton administration - having to compromise with blue dogs and right wing freaks in Congress. THIS TIME we can really take it back...and KEEP it. Thanks to you all!

Wow, this is hardcore, but inspirational. I've volunteered at several offices, but haven't seen anything this intense. This is great news for Virginia, indeed. I wonder what these folks will do after the election? It will probably be very tough to move on with a normal life. Sure, it will be tough for all of us, but man, every waking moment of these people's lives is Obama campaign.

Hopefully a lot of them will stay involved. (That's what I did after the Dean campaign.) Since our elections for governor and state legislature are in off years, we have elections every year in Virginia, and we can use all the help we can get.

Hey, Sean,

Glad you made it to "my" office; sorry I wasn't there at the time! As a precinct leader, I actually spend almost all my time further out in the decentralized structure. Anyway, wonderful description of our incredible operation, thanks.

I volunteer in the Alexandria Office .. they run a tight ship there as well. I volunteered for Kerry .. there is no comparison with the Obama Campaign ... I run a professional, IT business .. this cat (Obama) and is organization is the real deal.

You know something? When the history of the 2008 election is written, this site will be in it.

When the books are written telling of when and how people finally began to understand the rich ways the web can be used as a media platform, this site will be in that, too.

Thing is, there's almost nothing fathomable that could change the course of this election. People are voting. People have voted. Every day that tracks past the opening of the polls is a day on which that segment of the voting population has voted according to the polling. True, perhaps the most enthusiastic will get out the vote sooner. It's reasonable to believe that. But at the same time, it's almost just as reasonable to believe that the senior citizen community will get out the vote sooner (with no work to cancel); and that the youth vote will get out sooner. Depending on how those polls work out, it's pretty clear that Obama's lead becomes increasingly devastating to McCain.

Yummy!

2008-10-22T01:13:00.000-04:00

A few more good days and the GOP rats will be deserting the sinking ship. My sense is that they are just barely holding onto hope of a miraculous comeback currently. Hopefully, Zogby is a precursor of good polling news today and maybe Palin's Neiman Marcus shopping spree will be the news of the day.

sfergus,

No joke. Republicans can really stay on message and drive a story to the top of the media and keep it there with Drudge and talk radio and Fox. This story is no different than the John Edwards haircut story which dominated news for about a week and really hurt his campaign. I doubt we'll hear much more about Palin's extravagant fashion budget in the traditional media however.

Zogby IA polls are basically worthless - but yet even ol' John still admits that the results project an EV victory for Obama

Marc Ambinder, in a rare late evening post (which means he's hearing a lot of chatter) says what he is hearing from RNC and other GOP sources is absolute disgust over the $150,000 Palin fashion budget - with the hint that this could cause an early start to the proverbial night of the long knives within the campaign.

This may be one way Dems still aren't as good as the GOP - hard the situation been reversed, and Michelle Obama and Jill Biden had spent this money right during an economic downturn - it would be the big story of the week.

God bless your son, and all other young people making such a commitment to our nation. Such people are indeed patriots in the truest sense and national heroes. I only wish all people of our generation could be bothered to be so involved with politics.

todd, after the last two elections it is not surprising that some of us are concerned. Frankly, I find it also strange that a lot of people are too cocky. I will only believe the poll on November 4th. By the way, I am a scientist and I am trained always to ask questions and I do not take things for granted and believe everything just because it is on paper. And some of my experiments turn out differently than the statistics suggested. That being said, I think that Obama's superior ground game will win it, but that will only hold if not 50% of voters think they don't have to show up because it is in the bag.

Time is running out for McCain, so any movement in the polls, however slight, will continue to be hailed as the start of a tsunami.

I am also somewhat irritated by the helpless hand-wringing displayed by a few Obama supporters here. Their motives are likely honest (i.e not "concern trolling"), but there is just entirely too much fatalism and an active desire to seek out and embrace doom for my tastes.

This is McCain's last rhetorical shot. There may be a big spending blitz in the last few days, but things are mostly written in concrete. So far the public isn't buying what McCain is pushing, and there is still enough time for him (or Palin) to make a horrendous gaffe. I still think McCain will take a swing at a reporter before this thing is over, for example.

So you are right to counsel constructive and cautious optimism, IMHO.
