Would you shop on-line to support DU?
Edited on Wed Nov-05-03 06:54 AM by msanger
About two weeks ago I launched which lets people shop on-line and in doing so raise money to dump the chump. On the second day the site was up I got 6000 freeper hits, and a strong attempt by them to close down the site.

The site is up, and will stay up. In general, the money raised will go to the candidate who wins the dem nomination, the DNC, and moveon.org

I am thinking about creating a page that DUers can go to, which will raise money just for the support of DU. On average, we make $5.00 for every $100 spent at the merchants on the site.

So if 1,000 DUers spent $100 bucks each over the next month (buying boosk, DVDS, computers, wine....) we could raise $5,000 for a new server for the site.

Here are my questions:
1) would you shop at this site if there was a page just to support DU?
2) if so, what stores would you like to shop at, or what products would you like to buy.
3) how would you like to spend the money? a new servier, ads on google....
