I don't suppose anyone is interested in driving a few vans full of GW students down to Georgia. The vans are in Baltimore and the students are in Washington DC will be waiting to be picked up tomorrow.

We have a total of 6 vans but only have 3 drivers right now. The catch is the drivers must be over 25.

This is a weekend canvass trip. They will be heading back to GW on Sunday night after 2 full days of canvassing for Jim Martin.

Please call Liz @ 417 496-2726 if you are interested.

I guess she was just trying to show her "tough side" like with the IWR and Iranian votes. Another calculated vote perhaps?

The heavily populated portion of Wisconsin is getting slammed with ice and snow today. We will not be able to get out and canvas.

Please consider calling into Wisconsin today to help Obama. Go HERE to get started.....PLEASE.

Recent polls have Obama up 47-41, too close to call.

On Friday I posted a diary stating that Josh Lanier was going to throw his hat in the ring for the Democratic nomination for the US Senate in Georgia.

Today, Zogby released a poll with this headline....Zogby Poll: GA U.S. Senate Race Could Be Toss Up

Chambliss re-election rating below 40%; Poll finds him vulnerable to Josh Lanier challenge. This was a blind bio poll....

UPDATE - I changed the title a bit. It has been so hard breaking through the presidential diaries that I wanted to have something that would catch your eye.

More after the flip....

PATRIOTS FOR CHANGE

The AJC Political Insider is reporting that Josh Lanier will formally announce his candidacy for the Georgia US Senate seat after the Feb 5 primary.

Josh Lanier of Statesboro, a Vietnam vet and former staffer to Georgia political icon Sen. Herman Talmadge, said Friday that he’s joining the Democratic primary race in hopes of taking on Chambliss in the fall.

Josh is a strong advocate of the Fair Elections Now Act. So much so, that he is going to run THIS campaign under the guidelines of the proposed law.

At a time when voters are expressing frustration bordering on contempt for Congress - and Washington in general - Lanier will bill his campaign as a referendum on the corrupting influence of money on politics, particularly campaign finance reform.

More about Josh on the other side....

I wanted to throw my two cents in about a A Donkey and an Elephant Walk Into a Bar

Yesterday, Mike Stolarski posted this about a site we like to refer to as D & E. It is a social networking site with a twist. While the name does refer to some sort of bipartisanship, the vast majority of participants are Democrats.

There are right wing nuts and then there is Eugene Delgaudio. Eugene is a County Board Supervisor in Loudoun County, Virginia. A place once called the 'Republican Incubator' as so many wingers moved there to learn the ropes close to Washington. I say once called because Democrats Tim Kaine, Jim Webb, Leslie Byrne, David Poisson, Mark Herring and Bruce Roemmelt have all carried Loudoun in elections since 2005.

Mr. Delgaudio is a bit of a drama queen. He is the head of a group called Public Advocate of the United States. I'd link it but I really don't want to be the cause of the actually getting any traffic to their site.

He is the walking, talking example of Newt Gingrich's 1996 GOPAC memo.

His most recent screed it below the fold..

Four years ago I thought John Edwards was too young and inexperienced to lead the country. Today, I am impressed with his grasp of the issues.

As a Mark Warner supporter, I had been looking at Bayh (until he dropped out) and Vilsak. Of course, like everyone else, I took a peek at Obama as well. Then I turned my attention to Edwards.

Run-off elections are today. Georgia requires the winner to get a 50+1 majority in all races. Nothing quite like spending $500+k on an election with less than 6% turnout.

The only statewide race is the District 3 Public Service Commission seat. Even though this is a specific District seat, all Georgia voters elect the commissioners. The incumbent, Democrat Dave Burgess, got 48.8% of the in November general election.

More races after the fold....
