Lets Make a Bump in Numbers Where it Counts
from the coverage im seeing on MSM i think finding a convention bump may be hard to do
so we need to do something to make a bump where it counts and where it hurts
the pocketbook!
we need to arm our candidate with resources to win
that means money
im going to clean my penny jar
search my couch
refigure my bills
and make this job a little easier by greasing the skids with some good old american money
i think a quarter rolled under the drier and im even going to search that bastard out!
we need to raise so much during convention that polling will become even more irrelevent

join me?

6. Actually I only gave once through DU...
I usually just bump it at the campaign website...

You can't exceed, and the campaign is vigilant about that, I read where they've given small sums back because of a person's ties to lobbyists.

But you're spouse can do the giving....

...or you're adopted raccoon.

8. I'm in. Just sent $50 bucks. For Michelle.
And against the talking heads who said we wasted tonight by introducing ourselves and not going after McCain.

And if we'd done it differently, they'd say...we wasted tonight by not introducing ourselves.

On another point. Why the fuck is Cindy McCain going to George (the country)?

9. I'll put in $5 to DU.
Most of my donations are off-line at various Obama fundraisers. I'm actually never quite sure whether my money is going to the Campaign or to the Dems. I've lost track.

But I'll scrape together a bit for here, and a bit for there. Still waiting to find out what the Convention Watch *Fundraiser* is going to cost me.
