Jerry McNerney is running against Pombo, one of the "13 most corrupt" members of Congress; the "worst" anti-environmentalist in the entire Congress.
I've been walking part of Jerry's precinct, knocking on doors. It's pleasant work, and people are happy to see you 90% of the time. (The walk lists don't include Republicans.)
But I was one of only three people from the Bay Area, and this district can be reached on BART (subway) from San Francisco! I'm terrified that this kind of passive snoozing is happening across the country.
Where are the volunteers? Where IS everybody?
Don't just whine and write piss-o-grams to your friends; VOLUNTEER at http://www.jerrymcnerney.org/ In other parts of the country, go to http://www.democrats.org/... or just call your local candidate.
LET'S ALL GET OUT THERE and blow those Rethuglicans away! It's actually FUN, and you'll feel MUCH better having taken real action against BushCo. Taking action always cures the blues.
