I haven't yet made note of No Nonsense In November, the group led by former State Rep. Glen Maxey to beat back the hateful Double Secret Illegal anti-gay marriage amendment, so let me say now that it's precisely the sort of thing you ought to look into if you're a progressive and you can't wait till 2006 to Do Something to get things right in this state again. Karl-T has posted their first two newsletters here and here. Sign up with them to get on their list and do what you can to help. NNIN is an underdog on many levels, but with nothing besides some constitutional amendments and mostly low-key municipal races on the ballots this fall, anything can happen. The good guys are organized, the bad guys are confident in themselves. Here's your chance to catch them napping.
