Let's make up the difference. I'm donating today because we know that the Obama supporters at DailyKos, The DNCUnderground, and Moveon.org are donating. Losing because you can't afford to buy ammunition is pitiful.


Here is something I wrote to one of our candidates:

Your race and others make me think of where General Washington stood on Christmas Eve 1776. His men were nearing the end of their commissions many without shoes and frostbitten and where they did not suffer physically they suffered with the sheer heaviness of their previous defeats. They were worn down and most feared all was lost. Thomas Paine wrote the following during those dark days:

"These are the times that try men's souls. The summer soldier and the sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, shrink from the service of his country; but he that stands it now deserves the love and thanks of man and woman."

These men did not wait to be defeated. They crossed the river and went on to victory. I know this race is an uphill one but if you do not cross the river you may be leaving victory on the other side. I'm praying for you. ...

We haven’t had more useless RINO douchebags in the GOP Senate since maybe the 1940s.

While we allow North Dakota and Montana to continue to have TWO senators in the DNC fold, it’s just F’ing embarassing that existing RINOs are too afraid of losing that they won’t even fight to avoid extinction. Embarassing!

Perhaps if RINO's were told to put a sock in it the past few years they'd have raised more money.

More and more conservatives contribute only to conservative candidates. I don't trust any organization, with “Republican” in it's name, to properly spend campaign money. They have all earned this mistrust.

Yeah, I really want to contribute to the Carolina Weeping Pansy’s re-election effort! When Phil Gramm and Alphonse D’Amato were running the committee, they didn’t have a problem raising money.

Our Senators have made this bed, with their irresponsible spending, their refusal to do something about illegal aliens and border security, their refusal to allow drilling - let them lie in it!

I can think of about 2 Senators I’d care to have re-elected - maybe...

I understand the frustration of many Republicans because I feel it myself. I get tired of the party supporting RINOs. I do want to say, however, that Senator John Ensign is one of the “good guys”. He has a tough job to do. He needs our support to do it.
