Today my hat is off to Martin Raxton, the new Douglas County Democratic Party chairman -- Best wishes Martin.

From the Douglas County Sentinel:

“Are you a member of an organized political party?” a reporter once asked 1930s humorist Will Rogers.

“No,” Rogers replied, “I’m a Democrat.”

Organization has become a major goal for Georgia Democrats. The state in recent years has become increasingly Republican despite Democratic gains in other parts of the country.

Martin W. Raxton, the new Douglas County Democratic Party chairman, hopes to use his organizing skills to bring the county back into the “blue” column in upcoming elections.“I think we can do positive things here in Douglas County,” Raxton said. “I’m optimistic that 2008’s going to be a good year for Democrats, both national and local. Americans are positioned for change.”
