Compared with when? Yeah, the right is mobilized, but we got far more people out to antiwar demos in 2002 and 2003. Not that that had any effect. But the Republicans are going to pick up seats in Nov and Beck's turnout hasn't changed any of that. In fact, it could energize liberals who might otherwise be too demoralized to vote.
