Yes, the polls look great right now. But you and I both know that this thing isn’t over until we see the Orange Shitgibbon giving his concession speech on 3 November, and see the shocked look on Republican Senators’ faces as they realize they are now in the minority. In other words...
IT AIN’T OVER ‘TIL IT’S OVER
I’m talkin’ GET OUT THE VOTE.
I’m talkin’ VOTER REGISTRATION.
I’m talkin’ CHECKING TO MAKE SURE YOU’RE REGISTERED.
I’m talkin’ FIGHTING REPUBLICAN CHEATING.
I’m talkin’ RALLYING AN ANGRY NATION TO OUR SIDE.
I’m talkin’ VICTORY.
We CANNOT assume we have this won. We have to wipe the Republicans out this November. Here are the ways we can grind out not just a victory, but a BLOWOUT.
