Looking for contributing advice...Primary vs GE vs DNC vs state elections...
So if I can talk the wifey into blowing another $300-$400 or so, I'm wondering where I should be spending my money. So if anyone has any thoughts percentage-wise, I'd be interested in hearing it.

I know I want to contribute some to the DNC if for no other reason than to help with the convention. Regarding Obama, at this point I probably want to contribute more to the GE than primary, but I could be swayed (really I'm only thinking GE because I've already contributed that much for his primary fight). For local elections (VA), Mark Warner is a shoe-in for Senator, but I may want to contribute to help defeat Tom Davis' seat (I'm in his district).

So, um, anyone have any thoughts on percentages in terms of how I can provide the best bang for whatever I can contribute?

1. Ask the Obama campaign? They're experienced grassroots organizers...
I'd be curious what response you got.

2. OK...so...any other suggestions?
I sort of think if I ask the Obama folks, they'll say, "Give it to us...NOW...pleeeeease." Why wouldn't they?
