Out of towners Support Jim Himes

I am in Lost Angeles right now, so won't be joining you.
I have walked that route before, very nice houses in the neighborhood, which always brings to mind the sorrow of others left out.

In New Orleans this past March I was told about entire families living under the highway, dressing up in shirts and ties for go to work, with the little kids in their school uniforms after a night in a tent on the sidewalk.

Wish I could be there for the walk. Thank you for speaking up.

Awesome news!

Go get 'em, Dave! We're behind you 100%.

Say, would it count as a contribution if I let you welch on our bet? LOL!

We disparage Joe at our nation's peril!

It's too early

Hopefully things will heat up by September. It's really helpful if you have a place to meet and talk. I've found that the more often people get together, the more likely it is that things will happen, because just talking about the possibilities sometimes leads to them happening. Even if it's just a few of you who meet for lunch periodically (it helps if there are some people on your town committee you like). If you have a HQ in the fall, you need people to volunteer to keep it open, even if it's just Saturdays or Saturdays and Wednesday night. Once you have people sitting there, they might make phone calls if someone gives them a script and a list. I would think there's a good chance that the Obama campaign has some names in Somers. It's amazing how if you have something going on, people will show up to help out. But of course it takes a few determined people to get something started!

Around the 3:30 mark, the announcement is made.

Obama's response

Well done... Team Obama knows that when they have an opportunity to link McSame to Bush and Iraq, they can make a strong argument. In light of Obama's shutdown of Progressive Media, this kind of effort to define and brand McCain is crucial.

I reacted the same way.

If the Dems don't kick LIEberfahrt out of their caucus following the election, I think a large delegation of CT's voters ought to stage a protest in Washington.

Screeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaam!!!!!

Just when I think I couldn't possibly be any more disgusted with either Bush or Lieberman, they open their mouths and prove me wrong.

I am so ANGRY that Bush used this historic moment for my people as an opportunity for such outrageous political slander.

And Lieberman - it's a shanda what that man has become.

That you are the right age for it.

Do we need to fill in the form saying what our occupation and all that stuff is? I seem to remember having to do that when I made a donation to Ed Krumeich's campaign. If so, e-mail me at sarah at ctlocalpolitics.net and I'll give you my fax number. Otherwise, is there a link where I can download it? Check is made out and ready to go in the envelope!
