24. yes we are saying the same thing..and i do the same..
first of all nelson is in my state as well and he does not reflect my values in any way..he doesn't need the money ..and the retugs will not get behind drucella..so it is safe for nelson..so i give my money in my other state ( i live in 2 states)
and i am trying desparately to get money ..big money for our senate and people running for congress..but the dem party is not giving money to our candidates..because they don't have it..
all this grass roots stuff is great ...but it will not help when we can't even run commercials to combat the lies of the rethugs..or get our candidates names out there..since we do not have media coverage..how can we do it without commercials??
and that takes big bucks...
we give house parties..i figured the last house party i would have been better to give the money i spent on the party ..straight to the candidate..for the $$ donations he got..it was pittance..i spent 10 fold just doing the party to what he got..
and i am not denegrating what people are giving ,.most are giving all they can..thats not my point..my point is we can not do it with grassroots alone..it will not win us seats..period..that is reality..
we need companies and corporate types..even if it makes us choke..that is reality...
most normal people can't write the $10,000 checks..that is reality..
and Dean and the DNC needs to court those people ..now!! he needs to call in all chips..from the wealthy..
