Money Bomb for Hillary's Speech

I was never a big Hillary fan. It wasn't really a personal thing, but I've never liked the DLC and considered her too beholden to it. But even though I was a strong, early supporter of Barack Obama, after tonight's speech, I think we all should do what we can to retire her debt.

Today is the last day that funds can be sent to her for the primary. She has shown her good will and we should show good will back. Her speech knocked it out of the park. She's onboard with us, so I'm on board with her.

Never thought I'd do it (none / 0)

but despite my misgivings, Hillary convinced me to help with that barnburner of a speech last night.

I guarantee there would be a lot more help coming from others if the PUMAs and similar groups hadn't sullied her brand so badly.

I sent a donation a few minutes ago, too.  I'd been meaning to do it as a show of respect, just never got around to it.  I loved the intro video and her speech.

I donated through the email I got from Michelle Obama, too.  She inspired me with her speech, too.

Just donated (none / 0)

$50 the night she suspended her campaign, $50 this morning.  I wish I could specify that not one red cent of it should go to Mark Penn... ah well.

Excellent speech, with immediate effect--can you believe every single diary on the rec list is a unity diary?  That the top two are from dtaylor and Brandon, that in fact they are actually agreeing on something? :P

John McCain better start packing his bags to head back to Arizona.

Is there any way we can code the donation so she knows it's form an obama supporter.. like end the contribution in .08?

When I did it, there was the donation box and then a communication to the campaign box. I used both, pointing out that while I did not support her, . . .  here's the money.

there's only two days left to retire the debt. this is not the time to think good thoughts. It is the time to send money to retire that debt. I had another thought but mmmmffffflll.
