	    TOP TEN WAYS TO THROW THE BASTARDS OUT!
	  [Whichever bastards you have in mind... -psl]


			   10.
	Most important, let your friends, neighbors and
	co-workers know what you feel is at stake in this
	election -- your opinion matters to them. If every
	supporter gets ten more people to the polls,
	       that could be our winning margin.

			   9.
	Call a radio talk show in the next week and express
	your support for your Democratic candidate, and let
	people know why you think it is important to vote.

			   8.
	Remind everyone you meet that Election Day is
	right around the corner by wearing your candidate's
	button or putting his/her bumper sticker on your car.
				
			   7.
	Write a letter to the editor of your local
	newspaper explaining why voting this year will
	make a difference.
				
			   6,
	Change the message on your voice mail or answering
	machine to let every caller know that who you
	support and remind them to vote on November 3rd.

			   5,
	Volunteer to help at a phone bank during the
	weekend before the election. Candidates will be making
	thousands of calls to voters to remind them that every
	vote counts.

			   4.
	Email 10 friends to remind them to vote November 3rd,
	and encourage them to forward your email to 10 more friends.

			   3.
	Call 10 friends to encourage them to turn out to
	the polls to vote, and again suggest they contact
	ten more friends.

			   2.
	Consider taking a day off on Election Day in
	order to help at phone banks, waving signs at
	busy intersections or giving rides to the polls.

			   1.
	On Election Day GET TO THE POLLS AND VOTE!!!


If you don't take action you have no right to bitch.
