WE CANNOT LET UP.

Folks, I've been feeling good until this week. Yes, it's early. And yes, a three point lead for McCain/Palin is no big deal in early September. 
But you all have to acknowledge that we can still lose this thing if we don't bust our collective asses. 
I have a familiar unease that is reminding me of 2000 when my NYC friends were scoffing at Bush and feeling so sure of a Gore electoral landslide. I told them then that W was striking a chord with my people down South and they were buying it hook, line and stinker. 
Sarah Palin is doing that all over again. She's George W. Bush with an updo. Her values mirror his. Her mocking style mirrors his. She is for real. She is a lightweight, like W., but she is for real threat-wise. 
Don't ever let up. Don't stop giving money to Barack. Don't stop volunteering. They can beat us because they know how to scare a lot of people. 
We cannot let up. 
Never.
