WHAT YOU CAN DO TO HELP WIN IN 2010 at DickMorris.com: "Politics is no longer a spectator sport. Those in the grandstands must leave their seats and come down on the playing field to help their side score. That is the key lesson of the Obama campaign. He didn’t just have supporters. He had campaign workers–millions of them.
The Internet has made each of us the center of our own political campaign. We are the campaign. The days when the candidate and a small group of professionals ran things–and the rest of us chipped in money, showed up at rallies, and voted–are over. Now each of us must conduct our own campaign within our own circle of acquaintances, until the circle spreads to include thousands of voters.
Too many of us still labor under the delusion that politics is a top-down game, driven by the manager and candidate whose initiatives filter down to the lowly campaign workers, the foot soldiers on the ground. We wait for our phone to ring or an e-mail to arrive telling us what to do to help win the election.
But in today’s politics, those initiatives have to come from us, not from on high."
