What I am doing to bring us a 2006 victory.
Edited on Mon Jun-06-05 10:16 PM by usregimechange
I have a US Senator that is up in 2006, Jim Talent. I am developing a list of votes that he should be ashamed of.

I encourage each of you to:

1. Develop a list of your 2006 Senate opposition (using your DU state sub-forum) or help a state that has a 2006 race do so and (this can help: http://www.vote-smart.org/),

2. get the truth to the people via local networks, this is mine: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/swmo4progress/ and by writing letters to the editor.

3. If your state has a Dem up for election you can do the same in reverse.

Here is our growing list of Talent's party loyality and disloyality to the people votes:

2. Good luck with your effort
Yahoo is free but limited.

If you get 20 or more members, for $1/person/month you can have a meetup.com group.

Much more flexible and useful features.

4. Easy and cheap
Register a domain name at godaddy.com (add the optional anonymous info if you so desire). Then, find yourself some web hosting at someplace like http://www.midphase.com or http://www.sonataweb.net and use the CPanel interface to create your own forums.

I've created several that way including: http://www.yagt.org/forums and the blog in my sig

Registration of a domain is $8.95/yr. and the web hosting is about $8/mo.

15. Developing Themes
I think it is also important to develop one maybe two themes from the votes. Maybe they are corporate cronies, callous to workers, etc.
