Well, I don't know anyone in the election GOTV ballgame, but I can say that Karl Rove has probably learned his lesson on the GOTV thing after 2000 and if 2002 was any indication, it appears like he's getting to be just as good as Donna Brazile.
His organization looks impressive, let's just see if it pulls through. I know that he's got Ralph Reed in Florida, which is exactly where he belongs. He did wonders in Georgia in 2002.
I can't speak for the Dems, but the one thing that's obvious is that they'd better be organized as well, and just going out and registering voters ain't gonna do it. They've got to have dedicated precinct watchers, campaign staffers and volunteers, mass mailings, keeping in touch with every one of their base voters and ways of ratcheting up turnout.
Just a few ideas. I really have no idea how this GOTV effort will turn out except from what I see.
