Just donated $11.01 to the Democratic Party, signifying today's date.
It's the day they finally spoke up loud and clear.

Please consider donating $11.01 yourself, so they get the message that we support them -- in fact, we've been demanding for a long time that they stand up and do what needs to be done.

1. I wish I had thought of something similarly clever. I just donated 25.
and emailed them telling them that while I was not well-off, I would dig much deeper if they did all they could to resist the Alito nomination.

6. No sorry
Only $25,000 in a calendar year. Of course if you would like to donate the rest to BL611PAC, I'll make sure it gets to the right places:evilgrin:

3. Where's Reid's campaign chest?
I called one of Senator Reid's Senatorial offices in Nevada to express my support of his action. I asked where I could make a contribution...the staffer told me this was a congressional office and that I'd have to find that information elsewhere (he even sounded like I had offended him someway).

I tried a search for a campaign site for Reid where I could donate directly to him but couldn't find one.

I'll donate to the Dem Party as a last resort but would prefer to donate directly to him...anyone know where to go to do that?

11. Thanks for the idea...
$11.01 will become a significant marker for each of our donations and show the leadership that we are watching closely and that 11-01 is a red letter day. It would be interesting to see how many $11.01 donations they receive.

24. Thanks
I just cross-posted Kos and DU on Bartcop. It's "being reviewed" so I can't give you a link, yet.

Does anyone have a smirking chimp account?

This is a "the more the merrier" moment.

Thanks again for reccing mine. Only two on it, so it's gonna go the way of the dodo bird and, hopefully, the Bush regime. I appreciate the try, though.

27. Thanks for the thread!
When I Came home from work I checked the DU and put on Cspan. I was so happy to see our Senators speaking for us and the truth that I grabed the phone and called Durbin and Obama's Washington offices to cheer them on. But this is a great idea! Money talks!
I gave to:

29. If you go to the Democratic Party blog page...
...there is a link titled "I'm with Harry." I allows you to make a contribution AND send a message to Harry Reid.

35. Thank you to all who chimed in, in support of the idea.
We raised a few dollars for the Democratic party tonight, and sent a message while we were at it. Thanks, everyone! :)
