Seriously, McCain is destined to lose. New Voter registration nationwide exceeded 3.5 million, with the majority of new voters registering as Democrats. Democratic voter registration has hit historical numbers. Democratic voter turnout in the primaries has been record-setting, with Republican voter registration and turnout reflecting dismal numbers.
Obama's volunteer base for the GE is estimated to be at least one million, and yesterday, he launched a new voter registration drive in preparation for the GE. Obama's grass-roots organizing and Dean's 50-State Strategy gives Democrats an edge over the status quo. McCain doesn't even enjoy favorable ratings within his own party -- not a single Repug talking head wanted him and fought hard to beat him. Odds are against him. The only way he can win is to steal it.
Massive Democratic Voter Registration and GOTV efforts will flood the polls in November, and will prove to be the winning solution. Voter registrars offices nation-wide better brace themselves come election time. We will be reading stories about the record-high turnout. Mark my words. What you and I can do now is volunteer -- volunteer with the Democratic Party, volunteer for the Obama campaign in your state, volunteer for your registrars office to be an Election Poll worker in your city, volunteer to register new Democrats, volunteer for GOTV, volunteer to give voters rides to the polls in November, volunteer to phone bank and canvass your neighborhood, donate $ if you can afford it -- if not, donate your time, and, lastly and most importantly, vote Democratic in the GE ~ Vote for Obama.
