Earlier today, DFL Associate Chair, Donna Cassutt sent out the email below promoting the Campaign for Change's Get-Out-The-Vote (GOTV) effort...
In 17 short days, Minnesotans will go to the polls to vote in the most historic election of our time. That is, of course, if they are asked. We know that the number one reason people don’t vote is that no one asked them to. Will you join me in these final few days of the campaign and ask our fellow Minnesotans to join us at the polls on November 4? This weekend, we are pleased to launch a new website, www.gotvforchange.com. In the final days leading up to Election Day, we’ll need thousands of volunteers to fill thousands of shifts as we Get Out the Vote in all corners of Minnesota. We’ll be walking door to door and calling our neighbors, encouraging them to vote for the entire DFL ticket. Visit www.gotvforchange.com right now to sign up. Many of you have been working hard during a very long campaign. You've been incredible. You might be tired. You might be thinking it’s someone else’s turn to help out. You might think that we’re going to win. But we can’t give up now. Campaigns are about how we finish and we're almost there. No one will remember how many doors we knocked on or how many phone calls we made if Senator Obama doesn’t win Minnesota. But when he does, because of your efforts, we will know that we pushed to the end to make it happen. Let’s keep pushing. I’m fired up and ready to go. Are you? Click here to sign up right now. We need your help to encourage our neighbors to go to the polls in the final days of this campaign. We know the most effective way to motivate voters is by calling them or visiting with them on their doorstep. Whether you can volunteer a few hours or several days, it is critical to our success that you sign up now to talk with your neighbors to ensure Minnesotans vote for change on November 4. You might say – well, I don’t want to wait until the weekend before Election Day to start helping. Excellent. We have offices throughout Minnesota that are up and running day and night right now and we’d love to have you stop by and pitch in. Click here to find an office near you. Thank you so much for all you do, and will do to help get out the vote. With your efforts, we will elect Senator Barack Obama as the next President of the United States, send Al Franken to the Senate, elect three new Democratic members of Congress and secure a veto-proof majority in the Minnesota House. With your help, the DFL will win – up and down the ballot – in all corners of the state. Sincerely, Donna Cassutt Associate Chair Minnesota Democratic–Farmer–Labor Party P.S. There is too much at stake to stay home. It will take each and every one of us to do our part to achieve victory on November 4. Please visit www.gotvforchange.com to sign up now.

At first, Bush made McCain look bad. Now, with all of McCain's insane positions, decisions and statements, Bush should most definitely distance himself and his party from McCain. Damn!
Obama/Biden 08!
From the Rochester Post-Bulletin:
Ashley Ozuna voted in the last presidential election, so it would be unfair to call her apathetic about politics. She was, as she says, "not involved" politically. What a contrast four years can make. As the 2008 campaign rounds the final turn, this 25-year-old Rochester woman is juggling life as a mother, a student at Winona State University-Rochester, and a staff volunteer at Olmsted County DFL Headquarters. Unlike four years ago when the sum of her political activity consisted of casting a vote, Ozuna is immersing herself in virtually every aspect of grassroots campaigning. The reason is simple, she says. Politics no longer feels so unreal, so theoretical. As prices rise at the pump and the cost of attending college becomes ever more expensive, Ozuna said the connection between politics and everyday pocketbook issues has never seemed so obvious -- or imperative. "It's in our face. Before, it was just like an (abstraction). Now, it's really hitting home," said Ozuna after working at DFL headquarters one evening. Ozuna apparently is not alone. This year's primary campaign witnessed a sharp increase in political activity by young people. After a long period of political somnolence from 1972 to 2000, politics no longer seems like alien territory to many young people. In states where data is available, the national turnout rate during the primary season rose from nine percent in the 2000 primaries to 17 percent in the 2008, according to Center for Information & Research on Civic Learning and Engagement, a nonpartisan research center that studies youth trends. "Across the country, I think turnout is just off the charts this year," said Dan Hofrenning, a political professor at St. Olaf College. "Young people are part of that surge."Analysts and young people identify a confluence of political and economic factors contributing to this political upsurge: Turmoil on Wall Street and rising gas and grocery prices; a general sense that America stands at a crossroads; and a wide-open presidential contest without a Bush or Clinton on the ballot.

With just 33 days until Election Day we need to step up our efforts to convince undecided voters to vote for Barack Obama.
To put him over the top here in Minnesota, Barack needs us to step up in our own communities, because we know our neighbors better than anyone.
Sign up now to join a weekend canvass in your area and make a difference in your community.
College of Saint Benedict sophomore Stephani Kortan writes in The Record:
Many of my best friends are McCain supporters, yet when I ask why they support him, they have consistently avoided justifying any of his policies. They honestly don’t know about his policies or stances on issues. Political support — no matter the candidate — must only come after careful deliberation of his or her issues and his or her policies.To help you become a knowledgeable and responsible voter, I’m going to give you a brief rundown of each candidate’s stance for a few key issues in the upcoming election:When it comes to taxes, McCain supports tax cuts for those making more than $250,000 and would maintain cuts to capital gains tax and cut corporate tax from 35 percent to 25 percent.Obama’s tax plan offers permanent tax cuts for 95 percent of Americans while simplifying the tax code, closing corporate tax loopholes and reforming the current regressive tax structure.In the education department, McCain supports school competition and vouchers as ways to improve quality of education and give parents a choice in schools.Obama supports increasing Head Start and Early Start funding to cover more at-risk children and a $4,000 annual tax credit for higher education.When dealing with the environment, in 2005 McCain voted against funding renewable energy and standards requiring 10 percent of electrical energy to come from renewable sources by 2010.Obama supports policies reducing carbon emissions by 80 percent, investing $150 billion over ten years to renewable energy and requiring 25 percent of all energy to come from renewable sources by 2025.To all Americans voting in the next election, I ask these questions: Do you know the issues that each candidate stands for? Are you satisfied with where the country is headed? Or do you want change for our country to move back in the right direction?Once you have answered these questions, you’ll see the choice is clear: Barack Obama is the right candidate.As college students, we are truly the future of this country. After we graduate, most of us will be working or spending more money on college loans to get through grad school.We can decide how our futures play out. Do we want to pay more in taxes and to have our school loans and the unemployment rate keep increasing? Or do we want our economy back to where it was 10 years ago? Maybe we should get our government out of huge debt by stopping the spending of $10 billion a month in Iraq.To me, there is no choice or debate about whom I’m voting for. This country is ready to make a difference in the lives of its citizens and ultimately the world. This country is ready for change.When Nov. 4 rolls around, be ready to make the change and to make history.We’ve come to a turning point in our country’s history. The time has come for a new person to rise up and lead us. That leader is Barack Obama.

Andrew Zucker, the Youth Vote Director in Minnesota, just sent out this email...
Dear Xavier, It's hard to believe, but there are only 6 weeks to go before Election Day. Now is the time to make sure you and everyone you know are registered to vote to help bring the change America desperately needs. Earlier this month, "Harold & Kumar" star Kal Penn did his part by going on a road trip through Minnesota, registering students to vote and promoting our new online voter registration tool, Vote for Change. Watch a video of Kal Penn stopping by a fraternity house to promote Vote for Change: You'd be surprised by how many college students aren't registered to vote -- including your own classmates. When Kal was in college, he moved from house to house, and sometimes couldn't remember where he was registered. With Vote for Change, that's no longer a problem. Keep track of where you're registered to vote, or find out if you're registered at all. You can also use it to vote absentee or find your polling location. To win this election and bring about change for our generation, we're going to need as many young people registered to vote as possible. Watch this video now and invite all of your friends to check out Vote for Change: http://mn.barackobama.com/MNvoteforchange Thanks, Andrew Andrew Zucker Youth Vote Director Minnesota Campaign for Change
This Friday at noon, John McCain will make a brief stop at an airport hangar in Blaine. The Minnesota Campaign for Change want to sends a clear message: Minnesota wants change, not more of the same.
Come to a “Rally to Restore the Economy” on Friday at 12 p.m. in Minneapolis featuring Mayor R.T. Rybak, Speaker Margaret Anderson Kelliher, a special musical guest -- and Minnesotans like you who want change.
Rally to Restore the EconomyFriday, September 19th - 12:00 PMPeavey Plaza 1111 Nicollet MallMinneapolis, MNMaps & Directions
Rally to Restore the EconomyFriday, September 19th - 12:00 PM
Peavey Plaza 1111 Nicollet MallMinneapolis, MNMaps & Directions
On Friday, come tell John McCain that his stubborn insistence that the “fundamentals of the economy are strong” shows that he is disturbingly out of touch with what’s going on in the lives of everyday Minnesotans.
Click here to let us know you're coming on Friday, and send your own message to John McCain.
Here are just some of your messages for John McCain:
From Greg:
John, you have suddenly started advocating for change...so it's time to support the only candidate who can deliver change, join me in supporting Barack Obama!
From Corrine:
I am a student. I am 23. I was denied financial aid 3 times. My parents do not help me pay for any of my schooling. I do not have health insurance. I work 2 part time jobs equaling 60 hours a week and still can barely get by.These are the issues that matter to me, and issues you still haven't addressed. Things NEED to change.
From Katie:
No more fear mongering, no more hate and war, no more job loss. Let's make a positive change,and that change is Obama.
From Brian:
I am a career Army veteran and I used to respect you a great deal. However, your conduct these past few years, especially during your presidential campaign, have greatly reduced your stature in my eyes. You have run a despicable campaign and have sacrificed your honor in the interest of trying to get elected. It is painfully clear to me that you'd rather lose your integrity than lose this election. It is a bitter disappointment for this veteran to see you sacrifice your credibility and honor by using the tactics that were so despicably used against you in 2000. Straight talk? Not any more...
From Karen:
I am a psychologist. Every day I hear more stories from middle and working class clients who are so stressed out from economic worries--no health care or if they have it high deductibles which make care unaffordable. Crumbling businesses. Foreclosure, divorce, bankruptcy. These folks should be the heart of our economy--small businessmen and women, artists, teachers, retailers. I see students who have monumental amounts of student loans--one young couple with close to $100,000 debt for their undergraduate degrees, who are so stressed and depressed because they don't see how they can ever afford to own a house or have children. And you, John McCain, think the economy is sound. It's sound only for those who have milked the economy dry through greed, corruption and speculation. You are completely out of touch!!
Barack understands that with the highest unemployment rate in years and declining wages, Minnesota needs new economic initiatives.
Barack's comprehensive economic plan—which includes tax cuts for 95 percent of American families— will bring new jobs to Minnesota, stimulate growth, and put money back into the pockets of hardworking Minnesota families.
In remembrance of the seventh anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, Senator Obama released the following statement:
Today, we honor the memory of the lives that were lost on September 11, 2001, and grieve with the families and friends who lost someone they loved in New York City, at the Pentagon, and in Shanksville, Pennsylvania. We will never forget those who died. We will always remember the extraordinary efforts of our firefighters, police and emergency responders, and those who sacrificed their own lives on Flight 93 to protect their fellow Americans. And we give thanks for the Americans defending us every day in our communities at home, and in our military abroad. On 9/11, Americans across our great country came together to stand with the families of the victims, to donate blood, to give to charity, and to say a prayer for our country. Let us renew that spirit of service and that sense of common purpose. Let us remember that the terrorists responsible for 9/11 are still at large, and must be brought to justice. Let us resolve to defeat terrorist networks, defend the American homeland, stand up for the enduring American values that we cherish, and seek a new birth of freedom at home and around the world.
Whether combating anti-Semitism in post-World War II Minneapolis or standing up for farmers facing foreclosure and the loss of their livelihood during the Farm Crisis of the mid-80s, community organizers like Hubert Humphrey and Paul Wellstone empowered ordinary people to do extraordinary things on behalf of the common good.
During the Republican National Convention, thousands of ordinary Minnesotans came together, driven by their belief that America can't afford another four years like the last eight, to support for Barack Obama and Joe Biden's campaign for change.
These "everyday organizers" developed their community organizing skills at Camp Obama, where over 500 grassroots supporters from every corner of Minnesota learned the techniques and strategy that will drive this campaign to victory.
And while the Republicans were in St. Paul talking to their special interest and lobbyist friends, these ordinary Minnesotans were making phone calls and going door-to-door talking to their friends and neighbors about Barack Obama's plan to make the economy work for American families.
Women reached out to women and neighbors to neighbors, with remarkable success. Over the last three days, more than 1000 volunteers knocked on over 25,000 doors and identified thousands of Obama supporters across Minnesota, spreading Barack's message of change directly to the people.
While the Republicans were in town, deriding community organizing, the Campaign for Change was out in the community doing just that--bringing new voices into the process by registering voters, encouraging folks to help those affected by Hurricane Gustav, and coming together at benefit concerts and on college campuses to change this country.
Tomorrow, after the lobbyists and the McCain attack squad have left St. Paul, the Minnesota Campaign for Change will still be out in the community, making phone calls, knocking on doors, and spreading Barack's message of hope and change.
For years, Minnesotans have proved that when ordinary folks devote part of their busy lives to organizing and building their communities, they have the power to affect change. And that's what's happening today across this state, and across this country.
If you haven't already, please sign up to volunteer in your community and consider joining your neighborhood Team Obama. Together, we can bring change to Minnesota and to America.

Response to Palin's speech:
We've heard enough smug, nasty, small-minded political bluster over the last eight years. Its time for more than sound-bite politics and empty promises. America deserves real solutions to serious problems.
Dear Obama families
Tonight we have wittnessed the mother of character attacks, republican ever pulled , with their new comer vp peak Sarha Paline. She was less on the polices but abondant on the character attack! I guss when you do not have any plat form to run on, the easy way out is to attack with outright lies. How can a person born and rasied in the most civilized nation of the world could think this way? dream to win by trash talk and sarcasm. It buffled me. I can clearly see how desprate John Macane and his "Conservative" in this case hypocrat, VP, win the white house with nothing but their shameless attack on Barack Obama and his supporters. However all these should not discourage us from our quest to change America, rather motivate us to work twice harder. Lets fight back her smear attack with nothing but the truth.
Yes, we can, and Yes we will

This weekend, actor Kal Penn is going on a road trip across Minnesota! He'll be traveling from college to college, encouraging students to register to vote and kicking off Students for Obama chapters across the state.
The trip will highlight Barack's vision for fundamentally changing Washington to make progress on the toughest issues facing us and the pivotal role young people play in helping to make that change.
Kal currently stars in the medical drama House on FOX, but is known for his breakout role in Harold & Kumar Goes to White Castle. Next spring, he will serve as a visiting professor of Asian American Studies at the University of Pennsylvania.

Last night, around 500 people showed up for a concert benefitting the Minnesota Campaign for Change headlined by indie rock group Low, percussionist Dosh, and rapper P.O.S. at the Turf Club in St. Paul.
Folks were also treated to performances from Tapes N' Tapes, Kill the Vultures, STNNNG, Skoal Kodiak, TRL, Plain Ole Bill, Nikoless, winsihp, Hymies, Mike 2600, Norton Fortune, and Clint Simonson.
Regional Field Director Maggie Thompson told the crowd how they could get involved--from doorknocking during the RNC to texting MN to 62262 to learn about upcoming events and rallies.
Here are some photos from the event:
If you were at the show, drop us a line and let us know what you though.
Jaci Urness, Field Director of the Minnesota Campaign for Change, sent out this email yesterday:
This Thursday, Barack Obama will accept the Democratic nomination at the Open Convention in Denver. Next week, John McCain and his lobbyist and special interest friends are coming to St. Paul for the Republican National Convention. They will officially nominate John McCain to continue George W. Bush's disastrous economic policies for another four years. We can bring change to Minnesota and America, but we need to reach as many Minnesota voters as possible with Barack's message of change. Sign up to join fellow Obama supporters and grow our movement in your community next week. When John McCain and the Republicans come into town next week, it won't be to reach out to everyday Minnesotans like you -- it will be to push the same tired, cynical attack politics and raise money for more negative ads. There's no better time to show Minnesotans what's different about our grassroots Campaign for Change than during Republican convention week. Together, we've built a movement from the ground up that the Republicans just can't match. That's why supporters are coming together in our communities on Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday to talk with voters face-to-face about some of the issues that are affecting Minnesota families the most -- like high gas prices, creating new jobs, and ending tax giveaways to corporations shipping jobs overseas. No experience is required to participate. All you need is a hunger for change and a willingness to turn your enthusiasm into action. Find a training or voter outreach event near you and sign up today: http://mn.barackobama.com/mnweekofaction Thanks for your help, Jaci Jaci Urness Minnesota Field Director Campaign for Change
