1. I gave him $15 on Wednesday!
That's all I can afford at the moment. But it's better than nothing.

Still no TV ads? :(

This guy is better than Hillary in every way.

3. I live in New York
and I never thought I would say this but... I might vote for him.

I read Hillary's book. I admire many things she has done. But she has been a bit of an enabler for bushco. I may want to send her a message.....

It's been a while since I have been an "Undecided" voter.

"If this race were on the issues, I'd win."

I tend to agree. Tasini represents a real democratic Democrat.

5. MoveOn should support Tasini
There is no reason why NY can't do what CT did. MoveOn supported Lamont but has not come out to support Tasini, who is even more progressive.

Here is an email I sent to MoveOn the other day:

I've been a MoveOn supporter since it was first established. Since Jonathan Tasini's positions are so similar to Ned Lamont's, I'm just wondering why you are not giving him the same support that you gave to Ned Lamont. He is a true progressive and deserves our support.

Our NY state primary is in one month. Unfortunately, Tasini and his platform does not have the same *name recognition* as Clinton's. His views deserve to be heard and it seems that there is a conserted effort to silence him.

Please do all you can to insure that NY voters know about Jonathan Tasini so that they can make an informed decision.

Thank you,
___________
This is the automated reply I received:

Thanks for writing to MoveOn Tech Support. This is a short note to let you know that we've received your email. If your email contains a question or statement that requires a response, we will try to get back to you as soon as we can.
_____________

As of this moment no one from MoveOn has gotten back to me. Since they supported Lamont in CT, that alone should have them supporting Tasini in NY.

I'm reconsidering my continued support of MoveOn.

6. As long as everyone believes that no one can beat Hillary,
and as long as everyone doesn't even try to beat Hillary, then no one will beat Hillary. My common sense tells me that this is a losing cause, but my Irish heritage also tells me that once in a great while, the good guys win. It'd be great to win, but how can you stand to one side and never even join battle?
