Yesterday I received a special message from filmmaker Michael Moore and MoveOn.org.

If we all step it up this week and create a surge of grassroots people power by hitting the phones, knocking on doors, and getting every last progressive voter to the polls, we’ll win by enough to overcome the Republican effort to steal the election. And our efforts are even more crucial now as millions of us are affected by Hurricane Sandy.

MoveOn members are volunteering to talk to voters in Chapel Hill on Thursday at 6:00 PM. Can you join them? (Emphasis added.)

I wish our liberal friends good luck in their voter outreach efforts.  Chapel Hill can be a tough place to get Democratic votes.
