Browsing through the pages, I came across someone listing a number opportunities to focus our efforts on.   I propose that we give the idea "Democratic Club" a serious consideration. When I moved from Louisiana to here, the DEM club was the among the first, (Rotary Club, Temple, and YMCA were the others) I was trying get the address first.   A monthly meeting, and liesurely way of networking with people, a forum where we could invite speakers, engage in political awareness, personal growth are among a few that would help the club growing.
There is a lot of value and strength in developing a network, in a growth phase, compared to the ones developed on the contribute phase. We programmers call it as plan and program, versuse extreme-programming. One takes weeks and weeks of
planning before programming, while the other jumps into the task with a lot of resources and get some tangible thing finished on schedule.

It would take several weeks to faciliate  meeting of the minds(and having fun, helping the younger grow etc) to develop a clear understanding of local opportunities, strength, resources, and trial projects etc. Almost everyone is sub-optimal when they  are asked contribute as volunteers, if they were not involved in the planning stage.  

The objective is to create a next generation of effective leaders from each community, and not charismatic executives of a statewide or nationwide parties. The clubs are wonderful mechanism to empower such yet-to-be discovered leaders.  Bill Clinton, is one of those. Obama is another.  Famous O'Neil said all politics comes down to local issues. That is where the voting constituents are. Let us take over some local elected offices first.

Updated again (Jerome): Moritz is saying that "We have not yet seen any papers filed in the Sixth Circuit". Election Law is the blog to follow on the matter. One thing is clear, the Republicans are busy tonight laying down appeals, and are likely to be challenging voters tomorrow if they find the means to do so.
