It's awfully cold out there! We are open until 9 PM tonight. Come and stay all day, we have plenty of books, magazines and WiFi for you to use and enjoy. If you have materials due today and can't leave the house, don't! We'll sort it out later. #CambMA

I am seeing WAY too much overconfidence that Democrats will take the House in November. Cook Political has it at 50/50 and I agree. Never underestimate the power of disinformation or the willingness of Americans to sit on the sidelines. Get out there and register voters.
