There goes a C-Note.

I just donated, Dammit!


(second time, but I should do more.)


If the momentum can continue and he not only sweeps Iowa and NH, but racks em' up on Super Tuesday, we might just see something change for the better in this country.

Let him build on the groundwork Obama started.

C'mon, Bernie! Kick some ass!

Did the same last night, thx to a reminder from 1000words.

Putting our money where our collective mouths are, right after last night's not-a-debate, and just before the upcoming whooping of ass in IA, is exactly what's needed right now.

the more it builds, the more donors he keeps getting -- what is it now, well over 1.5 million?--
the more people are lining-up, saying "Hell yes!! I'm in" .. and can each give up to $2700.

Now of course many will not to that high precisely because many of us are too broke anymore
to do so, but many WILL be able to and will give way more than $5-10, so as it keeps building
and we keep making history, putting CU to shame, it's a lovely sight to see, and yes we can
win in the GE.

At the risk of sounding like a broken record, people need to be reminded that most things in nature (including human nature) are not simple linear functions.

The gains made early in the campaign, by a relative unknown like Bernie, can and will be very different from the gains made once the momentum is there. These days they call it "going viral".

Whereas for the known quantity, gains can and will remain quite flat.
