I don't know if many people know, but if you are not registered to vote by the 6th of OCT. you are SOL come Election day. Run an ad in critical states encouraging people to make sure they are all registered by that day

We could appeal to all high school teachers and professors who are Obama supporters and ask them to hand out voter registration cards in their classrooms. The teachers/professors should not make any partisan comments when handing out the cards--just offer it as a convenience to the students. I know a professor who does this every election, and the students are very appreciative.

The 2008 Democratic National Convention was a beautiful moment for the Obama Campaign. I believe that it highlighted the position of Barack Obama very well, along with having numerous wonderful speeches aimed at unifying the party. The Clintons came through with their speeches, something which does not surprise me but which I was nonetheless slightly worried over.

I know that in GA there is a big push within the Obama campaign for voter registration, and I'm assuming that this is the case most places in America. Walmart's are the PERFECT place to do this-- there is a steady flow of traffic, lots of it is low income and/or low education, and they're coming out frustrated with how much money they just spent.

It is great that the campaign has shown a serious commitment to voter registration. It is the first time I have seen a campaign that has recognized that one of the reasons democrats lose is that more than half of our potential voters don't show up on election day.
