Mise au Jeu

By Zamboni

We cats will attend the Montreal Canadiens-Phoenix Coyotes game at the Bell Center tomorrow night. (Yes, they have special VIP booths for cats — so we don't get stepped on by the enthusiastic Habs crowds.)

Although the Coyotes are coached by The Great One, we're still looking forward to seeing a team from Arizona get its butt kicked. Because if that happens, it'll put us in the perfect mood for November 4.

See, when we cats wind up this most enjoyable holiday in Canada, we'll be returning home to a key battleground state — and we'll work hard in the last two weeks to Get Out The Vote.

That's pretty much where we think the Democrats are right now: We get our vote out, we win. Despite those disgusting robo calls that the McCain campaign is doing.

So, all you Obama supporters in all states, not just battleground ones: Make those phone calls. Knock on those doors. Talk to your neighbors. Urge folks to vote early. Drive people who need it to the polls. Then, at 7 p.m. EST on November 4, start calling key states in earlier time zones to get their voters to the polls.

Game on!

UPDATE: The Canadiens did kick Arizona butt. The final score was 4-1... eerily, the ratio by which Senator Obama is outspending McCain in advertising. Is it a sign?
