Tonight, John Edwards and Dick Cheney will meet fo« Thread Started on Oct 5, 2004, 3:34pm » --------------------------------------------------------------------------------Dear America,An "online coup d'etat." That's how CBS News described your efforts after the debate last Thursday.John Kerry did his part with a powerful performance that showed America they can expect strong and principled leadership when he is our commander-in-chief. But it was your efforts that kept the Republicans from spinning their way to victory.Now we need your help again. Tonight, John Edwards and Dick Cheney will meet for the only vice presidential debate of the campaign. Once again, we need you to take action the moment they leave the stage.There are four critical things you can do to help beat the Republican spin machine.Forward this email to family, coworkers, and friends. Vote in online polls. Write a letter to the editor. Call radio and television stations. Your 10 minutes of activism following the debate can make the difference. It is important that we double our efforts from the last debate, because the Republicans are now copying our strategy.Vote in Online PollsNational and local news organizations will be conducting online polls during and after the debate asking for readers' opinions. Look for online polls at these news websites, and make sure to vote in every one of them:CNN: http://www.cnn.com/ MSNBC: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/ Wall Street Journal: http://www.wsj.com/ LA Times: http://www.latimes.com/ Akron Beacon-Journal: http://www.ohio.com/ Minneapolis-St. Paul Star-Tribune: http://www.startribune.com/ Orlando Sentinel: http://www.orlandosentinel.com/ Philadelphia Inquirer: http://www.philly.com/ South Florida Sun-Sentinel: http://www.sun-sentinel.com/ And be sure to check the websites of your local newspapers and TV stations for online polls. It is crucial that you do this in the minutes immediately following the debate.Make sure swing voters know why you support John Kerry by sharing your thoughts on message boards in target states. Visit our 2004 Debate Center after the debate for a list of message boards where you can fight the Republican spin. If you visit chat rooms on AOL, MSN, Yahoo, or other websites, be sure to let people know what you thought of the debate.Write a Letter to the EditorImmediately after the debate, go online and write a letter to the editor of your local paper. If you feel John Edwards presented an optimistic vision for the next four years, put it in your letter. If you feel Dick Cheney failed to explain the last four years of failed policies, put it in your letter.Writing a letter is easier than you think. It takes just a few minutes and just a few clicks using our online media center:http://www.democrats.org/media/Call Radio and TV StationsTV and radio coverage immediately following the debate is where much of the spin is cemented. Make sure you call radio and TV stations to tell them what you thought.Find shows in your area on our media website:http://www.democrats.org/media/find.htmlAlso...Don't forget to visit our 2004 Debate Center before, during, and after the debate for important information and more ways to take action.http://www.democrats.org/debates/Thank you, Terry McAuliffeChairman
