The Game Clock is Ticking

Bill Hennessy has a great post about what's ahead in 2010 for the Tea Party movement: "We have only 304 days 9 hours 30 minutes until the November 2 elections. Early voting starts as many as 45 days before that." I take a more sports-oriented view in the comment I left there:

My advice is to get involved early. Pick a couple of candidates you like–even at the state house level–and help them canvas in the primary. Game day is November 2nd. Contact a candidate or three and ask about their practice schedule. You need to get out in the primary and over the summer to prepare for the main event.
