Have you donated to the Democratic Party this year?
http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/ap/20040906/ap_on_el_pr/presidential_money_1

"This is a close, tough campaign against a relentless opponent. If we give these characters victory in this election, we'll never wipe those smug grins off their faces," Democratic strategist James Carville wrote in a DNC e-mail sent the (same) day as Laura Bush's Republican solicitation. "After you donate, pass this message on to a friend. We've got 61 days to go and we need all hands on deck."
--------------------------------------------

Please either donate to the Democratic Party or volunteer your time.

3. Hell no.
I donated $ to United for Peace & Justice for the New York demo and $ to Kucinich, Clark, and Dean. The DNC can go to hell.

4. Oh Ya, Not only the DNC but the DCCC, Kerry/Edwards,
Howard Dean, DU, Move-on.com, ACLU, Patty Murray, and even various politicians in other states. Don't for a minute think I'm well off, I'm retired and living on a small pension. This election so important to the future generations of this country. I've talked and debated to so many sheeple this year at times I've probably been considered a pest, but the results have been so rewarding. We have to keep up the fight till November.

7. Oddly enough, very little...
I've donated a bit to Kerry and a bit to Move On, but I've sunk my money other places. A LOT went to the DemStore. However, if you were to put a price on my time, Kerry has gotten his fair share and then some.

10. Yes, several hundred $
And I gave hundreds more to Kerry.

I am thinking of volunteering to drive registered Dems to the polls on Nov. 2, even though I live in a blue state..... (MD)

12. Not the DNC
But three times to Dean; four times to Kerry; twice to Richard Morrison (Texas); once to Daschle; once to Pat Leahy; and once each to congressional candidates in Wisconsin and Pennsylvania.

13. Also, not to the DNC, but 4 times to Kerry and 3 times
to Moveon. I'm just not comfortable with giving money to the DNC and I can't even tell you why - just don't feel they are 100% behind the candidate...yet.

15. My limit to Kerry, Moveon.org and DU of course. Pretty much tapped out.

16. No but I've shipped Kerry a thousand bucks
And I'm in bush-free Culeeforneeya. I'm glad my money has gone to the battleground states where the action is.
