I should be gearing up to be going to the South Side to go help voter registration and canvass efforts, but unfortunately I was roped into some very last minute babysitting. I can most likely get somewhere this afternoon though...hopefully. Only three more days for voter registration efforts! Snow will surely not impede us.
All is not lost though- the niece is asleep, so I took the opportunity to create an event. I'm asking those who are constituents to write/call Mike Doyle after I saw him on MSNBC talking about his uncommitted status regarding his super-delegate vote. I took a couple minutes to write to him, so I'm encouraging others to do the same!
Hopefully, a CCAC Students for Obama campus group will be created. I've been talking with a some folks to get things started. First things first are the voter registration. Then comes the persuasion period.
This upcoming week I'm going to start writing on the issues Obama addresses in his "Blueprint for Change" and elsewhere. I get a lot of questions about his specific policy points and what exactly does this word change mean? Is it empty? No- look at the change that's already occurred with students becoming more active and people becoming (somewhat) less jaded about having a voice in the political game.
