Obama For America

Dear Athens and Oconee County Democrats,

The dust has settled, and the debate is over. According to most pundits, Romney won the debate, and now Obama is in trouble in the polls. NY Times analyst Nate Silver estimates that Mitt Romney will gain about +3 points in the polls, turning this race into a dead-tie.

But Obama has something that Romney doesn't have. Obama has a passionate grassroots organization of voters like you and me, who are willing to invest some of their time into putting this country on the right path. And with our help, Barack Obama can win this election for us.
To anyone still on the fence about making phone calls, I want to reassure you that it is a very effective and friendly process. The focus is not to debate with those we disagree with, but to energize those existing Obama supporters who might not know about early voting, or might not realize how important this election is. There are so many potential voters in 2012 that just need a little reminder to vote from you and me:

What: Phone-banking for Obama! - 10/09
When: Tuesday, 10/09 - 7:00-9:00pm
Where: Athens Democratic HQ - 160 Tracy St., Athens, GA, 30601
Remember to bring: Laptop, if you have one; Phone+charger
The Athens campaign also has a new tool at our disposal - an auto-dial system for phone banking! This great new technique eliminates the waiting and slowness of making calls, and immediately puts you on the phone with another live individual! This has the potential to increase our productivity immensely in this election. You will need a laptop to pull up the website, however, so make sure to bring one to the phone bank, if you can.
Thanks for all you do,
Jake Moskowitz
OFA Phone Bank Coordinator



Location: Athens-Clarke County Democratic Headquarters 160 Tracy St, Athens, GA 30601, USA

Jeff Dantzler's arrests may be the best thing that ever happened to him

THis has next to nothing to do with Oconee County with the possible exception of the location of his former office, but a former colleague of mine on the radio got popped today for four counts. Any one who has listened to 960 the Ref AM sports talk radio or heard the UGA Lady Dawgs or men's baseball team has surely heard the encyclopedic knowledge of one Jeff Dantzler. Jeff and I are pretty much diametrically opposed poltically, but today he was arrested on four counts including DUI. I hope he gets the help he needs following his incarceration. I work for a lawyer who could help him out if he does not having someone already representing him. This man is a great broadcaster and I hope this arrest serves as a wake-up call for him and his rock and roll lifestyle. I live a far from perfect life myself but long ago and far away I learned how and when not to drink. Now we will be without he dulcet tones on Lady Bulldog broadcasts as well as on Georgia baseball games and also on the after...

A deep wound waiting to be healed - restoring order and dignity in the city cemetery

Image
The Watkinsville City Cemetery is an oasis amidst the houses on the east side of the municipality, near the neighborhood once called Sidney. There is a large section of the cemetery that remains a mystery, but perhaps we can work together to dignify the eternal resting spot somewhat better than the current neglected and forgotten (not to mention unmarked) graves of 70 people, more than likely of African-American descent. They deserve to be honored as well. An effort has been undertaken to repair the graves with fill dirt to stop the continued erosion amongst the graves. The most recent grave and bench belong to Larry Sheats,  and as any one who played basketball at Herman C. Michael Park or knew him otherwise  can attest, he was among the best people this county has ever seen. Larry was always ready to help. Now it is our turn to help. Do it for someone you knew there, maybe the Hardens, or the Downs, or any number of other people, but allow me to reminisce about how L...

I strongly disagree with the impending demolishing of the iconic Watkinsville Water Tower

Image
I know the Watkinsville Water Tower near where the "Big Spring" of what was one called Big Springs, Georgia serves no functional purpose anymore. I know it is a hazard. I know it is rusty and old and past its usefulness for the most part. I see a purpose beyond the aesthetic and instead as a possible financial benefit.  I know there is a way to keep it and make money for our municipality. I wonder who is doing the seemingly shoddy job of removing it (or at least preparing to raze it) and who stands to make money off that?  The dismantling of the Watkinsville Water Tower has already caused one gas leak and I can only imagine what problems await the demolition of the dinosaur.  If it is only because a group of kids have been crawling up it, then build a fence around it. I would think the City of Watkinsville would benefit and making monthly lease fees if they would instead do what about 90% of these abandoned water towers do and that is become a cellular telephone tow...
