It was so heartening.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>I have spent the past year working on my latest \u201cepic\u201d project, one I think most of you will love. More on that later.<\/p>\n<p><span>But for right now, with just 38 days until Election Day, I\u2019m going to do <\/span><em><span>what I\u2019m going to ask all of <\/span><strong>you<\/strong><span> to do<\/span><\/em><span> \u2014 as best you can, knowing that you have go to work and that the kids have to go to school \u2014 I\u2019m asking you to find little breaks or pauses in the next few weeks and give whatever time you can to <\/span><strong>help take the House and the Senate away from these no-good rotten bastards. Please! C\u2019mon! We Can Do This!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><span>At this point, <\/span><em><strong>it is only about TURNOUT.<\/strong><\/em><span> We need to get everyone and their sister out to the polls, from early voting in October, to 7pm\/8pm on November 3rd.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>For this one, my friends, every single one of us has to show up \u2014 and bring 5-10 voters each with us.<\/p>\n<p>This includes the truth-tellers, cynics and Chuck Schumer-haters out there who will need to cast their voter for a party that started the Gaza genocide, failed for nearly 50 years to codify into law Roe v. Wade or to make the ERA the 28th Amendment of the United States Constitution.<\/p>\n<p>Millions of women, people of color, and young voters have had it with the weak and spineless Democrats. It\u2019s why Harris lost in 2024. So many of our fellow Americans stayed home and that\u2019s why Trump won. And it\u2019s why MAGA NATION MAY WIN AGAIN IN NOVEMBER. You don\u2019t think that\u2019s possible? How many times do you need to have the horse kick you in the head?<\/p>\n<p>So here\u2019s what I\u2019m asking you do today. Make a list of people to adopt as your \u201cVote Buddies\u201d \u2014 coworkers, fellow students. cousins, neighbors, recovering Republicans, gas-guzzling Dodge Ram owners, ICE cops begging for forgiveness, little League coaches in AA, men in tupe\u00e9s and that woman in the church choir now under arrest for embezzling thousands from the parish fund for Pagan Babies \u2014 anyone you think that has come to their senses about Trump or all those who\u2019ve decided to simply take their lard-ass down to the nearest voting booth.<\/p>\n<p>You know who they are.<\/p>\n<p>They don\u2019t trim their hedges or their kids hair. But they are sick of the Orange Man in the White House \u2014 and right now they\u2019re just waiting for a kind soul in the car pool to hold out a hand and giving them a free egg or two.<\/p>\n<p>Make a list of 9 people, make a party out of it, and drive them to the polls. Or make a lunch date out of it with all 9 of you! Or have an early voting night in your living room then go get smashed or high. That\u2019s what is great America &#8211; you do not need to be sober to vote! You just need to be pissed off enough to show up and reluctantly vote, even if it\u2019s just for a lame-o Dem.<\/p>\n<p><span>And here\u2019s the good news \u2014 there a ton of <\/span><em>actually great Democrats<\/em><span> running this year! Many of them won their primaries by throwing out the old farts who continually voted for war, Big Business and taxpayer funded NFL stadiums. There are young members of the DSA. They\u2019re our Black and Brown brothers and sisters! There are candidates on the local ballots this year who work 3 jobs and make $50K a year. Let\u2019s let some of them call the shots! It really is one of those years we can have a real say and make a real difference.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>In the coming weeks I\u2019ll give you their names. In the meantime make your list of Vote Buddies. Get together with them, talk about who else can join your list. Have some fun.<\/p>\n<p>And never forget: there\u2019s always more of us than there are of them! WE! CANNOT! BE! DEFEATED!<\/p>\n<p><span>Yes. Winning Is THAT Easy!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Mike<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>SHARE THIS WITH YOUR FRIENDS. ASK THEM TO VOTE WITH YOU.
