How do Democrats increase midterm turnout?

[Boston Bread]

Create some kind of nation-wide plan to run on. Focus on economy, not tidbits like abortion. Make it clear we want change and what kind of change it is. Moderate heroes don't win crossovers so there's not even a point of running away from Obama. Speaking of which, support Obama's policies and explain how they help ordinary people. Primary out corrupt and incompetent officeholders. Less attack ads (I doubt they help turnout anymore), run mid-term national conventions instead.

I guess ballot proposals. Stuff ballots with minimum wage, medicaid expansions, fluffy happy "second bill of rights stuff", marijuana, voting rights etc. Either that or attempt to move governor races to the Presidential year...

And try not to step on gun people's toes. It's a waste of time, and I really wish Democrats had spent their political capital on something, y'know, useful.

Like I said in an other thread, pass gun control through referenda, not the legislature. If it's as popular as polls have us believe they will pass. And the anger can't be passed onto democrats as long as their politicians ignore the issue.
