I just donated $100 to Obama - WHO'S WITH ME???
I think he needs a "THANK YOU" for all of the hard work he's put in this week... for me, for democrats and frankly for all Americans, wheather they realize it or not.

I know money is tight right now with gas prices soaring, people losing jobs, etc. But, even if you can afford to send him $5.. we all know that he'll put it to good use. Sadly, even after this speech - his name and the color of his skin will keep ignorant people from voting for him. He's going to need everything he can get - money, volunteers, and every single vote he can find.

Right now we can give him 2 of those 3 things.. Money and Volunteers. But we have to wait until November to give him the 3rd.

Go donate if you can... and bump & rec this thread if you do.

$5... $100... $2200... whatever. Giving what you can is all that is important, and all of us who support him appreciate it!

6. I had the very same idea. Great thread. This(moneyraising) is very important right now. Our
and our children's future depends on the results of this election. I was so burnt after '04 that I've been floating through this election rather blandly. Obama just amped me up to a fever pitch of hope I haven't felt in a very long time.

Senator McCain is going to lose.

8. I'm close to hitting the max....but today's a good day to show our appreciation and committment
Not bragging, I'm just fortunate enough to be in a position that affords me that luxury and I think its best spent here.

I'll put another $100 to work today and I've already volunteered - just not sure they are going to push hard in TN as its not looking favorable.

Unless you want the election stolen.
