An Active Weekend

I spent a few hours yesterday canvassing East Leesburg along with a number of other volunteers on behalf of the Obama and Combined Campaigns. The local Obama team has started coordinating their canvass efforts with the Warner/Feder campaign in the interest of sharing information, minimizing overlap, and encouraging cooperation and collaboration among the people who agree that after the last eight years, America needs something different from its leadership. It is efforts like these that build a foundation of progressive people in Loudoun that will serve us well in the debates to come.

This morning, I took advantage of the end of the month (and thus, FEC reporting period) to give a few dollars to the Feder and Obama campaigns. Judy went on air for the first time last week, and the Obama campaign is doing the right things with its money by expanding the field and hiring staff in corners of America not thought to be good turf for the Democrats.

We face many challenges in America, and in Loudoun, and part of meeting them is making sure we have elected leaders who have the judgment to make the correct call in difficult situations. That's why we all need to join together, and take our country back on November 4th.
