All of us who can afford to let's all make a donation today

What do you say. Normally I use actblue but is there a link that connects to Democratic Underground?

If you can only donate three dollars, that will still help quite a bit actually.

The budgets have been set, the ad buys bought, the personnel paid. At this point we'd just be lining the pockets of the fund raisers who work on a cut of the total haul.

They have made ad buys but could cancel them if $ are sufficient. I prefer to think they aren’t bald-faced lying.

You realize they are written by the people who are paid as a function of how much they raise.

The message regarding money was Ruben is spending every dime that comes in each day on advertising, GOTV and in particular GOTV in Latino neighborhoods by sending folks to answer questions about an unusually long multi-page ballot with many judges and propositions. I also don’t think it would hurt to have a few $s on hand for the legal crap after the election. That night I doubled my initial donation..

Last night we donated to Osborn, Allred, Casey, Rochester. But I can find a couple dollars to honor your request!

PS DU links go through ACTBLUE. I forget to use the DU links and go straight to ACTBLUE from habit, will try it now.
