Elections are later. What is now is the rally this Saturday. We need attendance there to portray the real numbers for people that want universal health care. Polls are skewed. They have always been skewed. But there is no substitute for feet on the street. Politicians see voters and then question whether there is enough money to convince enough people they deserve reelection versus all those energized people who are demanding something else. If we make it clear, in no uncertain terms, we want unviversal healthcare and it is not delivered, then we vote them out.
Agreed. But throw ourselves out if we don't do a lot more to fight this.
