That the republicans trying to disenfranchise the young and minorities has really fired them up.

Personally, I think a lot of people are voting to say "Rich people can't buy us off!"

My memory is that every time early reports are for big turnout.

we can see elevated turnout on both sides. Take NC for example. Republican early voting was at a much greater level than in 2008, but still no match for Dems.

The polls are in our favor, so I don't expect another Wisconsin recall, where the turnout was high but not for us. All the polls had Walker by 5 points.

Obama leads in the early electoral count
Obama leads in the early vote turnout
Obama leads in the national polls
Obama leads in the battleground polls
Obama leads in all the prognostication methods
Obama has a 50+% job approval rating
Obama has a 50+% favorable rating
And ALL the recent movement in these numbers has been toward Obama

Still, there are a LOT of haters out there. Haters gotta hate, the rest of us just have to vote.
