		<description>I have written on two soliticitations from the DNC (so far) get back to me after Florida and Michigan and seated AND their votes are counted fairly as cast AND after Hillary is treated fairly in this campaign and I will begin to send money to you again on a regular basis.  Until that happens, do not expect to receive one red cent and you can save your postage by sticking your beggin letters up to where the sun never shines!</description>

		<description>&quot;...when one’s dreams don’t come to fruition? ...move on, ...grow up&quot;

I see this as a major difference between Obama and his campaign, vs Clinton and her campaign.  So often it sounds to me like RE-active (Obama) versus PRO-active (Clinton).

&quot;I always dreamed that the Democrats represented progress, enfranchisement, and equality. ... Another dream deferred.&quot;

The GOP in the fall, will NOT need Karl Rove to write the ad copy on this one.  It writes itself; as in &#039;how can the party call itself Democratic, when it UN-democratically dismisses voters from entire states?&#039;  After the focus on state primaries is no longer distracting from the FL and MI votes, look for this issue to re-emerge front and center.

&quot;...between my smoking habit and my overall shiftlessness...&quot;  Try the excuse I use, &#039;quitting is easy, done it many times&#039;

&quot;A Dream Deferred&quot;
sort of OT but amusing -
I recently visited a business tenent in Hollywood&#039;s CNN building, where the tenents share the same floor as Larry King&#039;s office.  Every single day of his show, Larry has a freshly pressed shirt delivered just before.  The tenents tell me that while he waits for the shirt delivery, Larry goes around in the building with no shirt at all, just pants and suspenders.  Sometimes he even waits outside that way in the alley next to the parking garage.  The dream defers - to nightmare.</description>

		<description>I get those same ones and I do not respond, after sticking my toe in the water. If I need constituent services I call her office. Political social networks are an attack surface and will be increasingly exploited.

Keep talking Bill. Richardson is a weenie of the first order. &quot;I would advice Obama not to debate because he would be attacked.&quot; WHAAAAA over the next hill is the GE and BO, and the Dem nominiee will be.</description>

		<description>I agree.  I wrote to him last week.  But, we are now moving into a time when we seriously need to start looking at Organizing and Mobilizing for a mass Protest/Demonstration in D.C., perhaps culminating in front of or near the DNC.  There is power in numbers.

My concern recently is that BO is having an Organizers Training Institute Fellowship/Internship, and that culminates in June.  It seems more than obvious that they are gearing up to take ACTION.  Moveon is doing the same thing.</description>

		<description>While I&#039;m in perfect sympathy with the idea (it was damned tempting to give money to my daughter so that she could donate) it isn&#039;t legal to give someone else money for the purpose of contributing to a campaign to which you have already contributed the maximum legal amount. You might want to edit the post above so that you aren&#039;t encouraging anyone to do something illegal.</description>

		<description>I e-mailed Howard Dean yesterday and told him I would not give the DNC or DCCC one dime until they figured out a way to count FL and MI.  I also told him that every time I heard him talk about Hillary dropping out, or trying to settle the delegate count before the convention, I would contribute more money to Hillary.

I told him it&#039;s the PEOPLE who are going to make the decisions in the race not HIM or the other bigwigs, like Pelosi or Reid.

Hillary won big in PA, and my prediction is she&#039;s going to do very well in every upcoming race, THEN what are going to say? Duh.  Idiots.  I encourage everyone to e-mail Howard Dean and tell him what you think.</description>

		<description>received the following &quot;Poll&quot; from sodahead today.

http://www.sodahead.com/poll/77869/


There&#039;s two things about it that concern me:

1) It came to my email inbox identified as coming from Barbara Boxer
2) It actually came from the Sodahead founder

Even though the poll came as a direct question, I think the way it was phrased is EXTREMELY BIASED. I&#039;m also upset that Sodahead is using Barbara Boxer&#039;s name to get responses to such a poll. I believe Sen. Boxer has remained neutral in this campaign thus far.

I am asking here that all Hillary supporters do two things: 1) Complain to Sodahead that they should not use Barbara Boxer&#039;s name (or anyone elses) for their own phishing expeditions and 2) Contact Barbara Boxer&#039;s office and complain about this poll, and make sure they know her name was used and the context in which the question was asked. If Boxer did indeed endorse this question, I would be personally outraged.

I&#039;m divided on whether to actually respond to the poll and show our strength. There are so many such BS internet polls, it probably matters little...except for unfortuantely the Sodahead founder&#039;s posts probably get more page hits.</description>
