I'm trying to build an automatic cobblestone generator but my piston won't connect to my red stone. The redstone line just stays a blotch and won't connect. Help me!

I had some similar issues with a minecart dispenser. A couple of things that (I believe caused my piston to not activate, were:

  • I couldn't have the redstone approach at an angle, and
  • The redstone couldn't be above or below the piston.

So, make sure that your redstone is 'touching' a bottom edge of the piston (not a top, and not underneath), and the piece of restone touching the piston is connected in a straight line to another piece.
