1. Not gonna lie...this is kind of funny. Not that I can't appreciate the idea of trying to further enhance participation in a democratic system that could certainly use it, but...the mental image of Snow White or the Hulk going out to sign people up to vote is pretty amusing.

2. Off-topic, but interesting...

   Voted today and there was a Dem worker outside the polling place with voter guides....

   but NO Republican worker?!?!??!?? And my district is by no means Solid Red.

4. These guys gave up, Mask. A long time ago. What is truly strange to me is the carnival of wierdness that it has become. My wife just told me she heard JTP was offered a huge country music recording contract. I doubt I will enjoy it as much as Johnny C

5. Why not? George W. Bush convinced people to vote for him by wearing cowboy and flight suit costumes!

8. Go to a Republicans house wearing a George W. Bush mask. That should scare the crap outta them..

   Throw some eggs on their cars on the way down the driveway.

9. Ask them if they voted for Dubya in 2000 and 2004. Then have a guy in a "Men in Black" costume place them under arrest. Load them into a black sedan and tell them they are going to Guantanamo for some "Enhanced Interrogation".

   But I digress..
