Liberals and ballot initiatives
By Michael J.W. Stickings
In 2004, it was same-sex marriage. And the Republican base turned out in huge numbers to push Bush over the top. In 2006, it's the minimum wage, stem-cell research, and same-sex marriage again. But now the Democratic base may just turn out in large enough numbers to help Democrats regain control of Congress.
Liberals are mobilized.
