Remember when we all sent flowers to Sen Boxer - Let's do that for Reid
I mean, we were so grateful that she was going to support the House (mainly Black Caucus) objection to the 2004 presidental election that we sent her over 4500 roses.

Wouldn't it be nice to do something similiar for Senator Reid?

3. I keep thinking if there was something other than flowers we could send
I mean, flowers are so 'girlish' but I'm sure that Reid would appreciate whatever was sent

6. So how do we find a place that can deliver Red, White & Blue carnations
Obviously the online flower places will force you to purchase pre-made arrangements

10. reid
Hey what about those teddy bears they always advertise in lieu of flowers?

I really had my doubts about this guy when he got the job. No longer. His soft-spoken style (contradt to Dean) might be just what we need at a time like this.

12. Welcome to DU - and I think we're going to donate $11.01 to his PAC
although flowers & teddy bears are nice it seems like a waste of money when we could help him get more democrats like him elected to office.

He has a PAC here:
http://www.giveemhellharry.com/

And we're donating $11.01 to signify the donations is because of what he did today on November 01

11. Donate to Give Em Hell Harry.com - goes toward Reid's PAC
http://www.giveemhellharry.com/

We're all donating $11.01 to sigify that it's for what he did today on November 1, 2005. Since it's his PAC he'll donate that money to other worthy candidates coming up for election
