Don't leave the DNC off of your Christmas List. Give generously.
That way we all will have a pleasant holiday NEXT year after the elections.


<snip>

The Democratic National Committee under Howard Dean is losing the fundraising race against Republicans by nearly 2 to 1, a slow start that is stirring concern among strategists who worry that a cash shortage could hinder the party's competitiveness in next year's midterm elections.

1. So you're saying giving to the DNC is a good thing?!
:D

Yeah, me too!!

That's a good idea. The pubs always raise more than we do, because they steal so much!!

3. I agree, but don't forget.
The fundraising is being spun. We have the republicans down from a 3 to 1 to a 2 to 1 margin just this year, and the DNC is actually ahead of any other non presidential election year.

So this article has been debunked by Dean and some of the blogs, but the media chooses not to cover it.

Thanks for the support.

10. Your point is well taken. Personally I prefer to invest in the eventual
nominee vs ponying up during the primary battles. Or I give to the party.

9. I give to the DNC every month
And to the DCCC and the DSCC. I don't have a lot of money, but I feel it is that important.
