Recently, some old friends and I started a facebook page called the Georgia TruthSquad to share information about this election season and to answer one amazing question: what’s happening with low turnout and involvement from the Democrat side.
After the energy of the 2010 election, the coalition that support President Obama didn’t remain engaged as the Right conducts a textbook display of grassroots and Astroturf. There seems to be a disconnect this Fall regarding the importance of a mid-term election.
To me, Obama deserves better than the coming hell of two years of far Right congressional opposition. What we experienced in 1994 with Clinton was nothing when compared with what’s next if folks can’t look up from the football season long enough to notice the coming wave and vote.
The enthusiasm gap is more like the Grand Freaking Canyon and a zillion campaign ads can’t do it alone. It’s time for some old fashion get out the vote rallying featuring those who (like the Tea Party) understand the methods to light fire under some tails. Can you say impeachment?

If the conservative candidates win next month, it would prove that they are mainstream right (which they are) and not “far right”…
Perhaps if President Obama had governed with the centrist, “post-partisan” ethic that he promised during his presidential campaign, then he wouldn’t be facing an uprising from the people…
Shay: In Georgia we have a few “regular” conservatives and they are officeholders or candidates who are needed in the political arena. But, the Far right cats, to me, are nut and would govern with little consideration or input from anyone else.
