12. Tell the DCCC that

I don't disagree. But I think we're in a tough place on this issue. I get people all over the country contacting me for money. During the primaries, my attitude is generally that local races should be run locally. When we get to the general election, okay, then we can talk. But unfortunately there is a reality that national groups get involved. And that includes organizations like DCCC, DSCC etc. We also have national figures like Obama, Clinton, etc. getting involved in otherwise "local" races, and frequently at the primary level. So then it comes back full circle to whom I should back, and on what criteria.
