My campaign is moving forward.

I knocked on more than 200 doors this week and am finding lots of support for the idea that I, as a citizen, ought to step forward and run against a professional politician. There's no way I can outspend him, but if I can at least stay competitive with a few media buys and a good crew of volunteers, I believe I can overcome a 5% deficit in registrations.

Thanks to the couple of DUers who've sent something my way! My website is now active, if not complete:

http://rongreen.org

I ought to have the full site working by Tuesday night.

Edit: Sorry to say it will be just a few dollars (that'll be all I could afford) but think it'll be worthwhile to do what I can after first reading this thread and then reading articles I've found on line about you and your campaign.
