To US friends and readers

VOTE!!!

If you haven't already voted early or absentee, get to your polling place early. Take a friend or neighbor who is waffling about going. Buy them coffee or something to help them wake up.

Whatever the result is, it needs to be a majority of the eligible voters actually voting. We can't let the future of our country be determined by a shrill, buut motivated minority any longer.

FWIW, I've already delivered my absentee ballot, marked for Kerry. I would have preferred Dean or Kucinich, but the press didn't like the fact that their campaigns wouldn't suck up to them, and torpedoed them at the dock.
