Vote!

If Robin Weirauch can win the special election in OH-05, there's no safe district for the Republicans next year.
That's why the strapped-for-cash NRCC has thrown in more than one-fifth of their campaign account into this normally safe Republican-leaning district that Bush won with over 60-percent of the vote. Doing so means they're diverting their money into playing defense in the reddest of red areas before the election year even officially begins.
So no matter what happens, we've already "won."
But we still need to elect Robin Weirauch to Congress, so if you're in Ohio, vote. And then volunteer to bring others to the polls. This election could come down to a handful of votes, and you can make a difference in this race.
DailyKos has the latest numbers and this could go either way, with the numbers tight and differing from poll to poll.
It's also not the only special election today. Over in VA-01, Governor Warner told a huge crowd yesterday that Philip Forgit would shock the political conventional wisdom. Forgit's an Iraq War veteran and Bronze Star recipient and nationally-recognized teacher. He also needs your help, if you're in the area.
Vote.
