Day 192:

In it to win it:
When you see these jerks performing their stupid drama, just remember, they are the symptom not the illness.  The sickness is caused by the money in politics, and the cure is to get it out.

Stay focused, and only vote for candidates you think are serious about making real change.

Tools of change:

Feel like this is all a bunch of bullshit?  Want to do something about it?

Calling your government representative:

Call your Senator
Call your House Rep (Or use this spreadsheet)
Call your Governor
Call your Attorney General
Or try this website
Fax Congress here (free!)

You can also use 5Calls.org if you are having a hard time figuring out what to say.
