Please! When you post about a candidate, include their Web site.
I see many threads on DU advocating for a candidate. That's good!
But I see few of them including a link to the candidate's Web site. That's not good. If you care enough about a candidate to post a new thread, at least show the very generous DUers where they can go to help out.
I, with my very low bandwidth, am always adding campaign URLs to threads which should have included them in the OP.
All candidate advocacy threads should include the following:
If you want to help <candidate> here's their Web site <URL>
Please, just take the time to do this. Make it easy for everybody, even those of us with dialup bandwidth.
on edit: Most important are the House races. If we are going to take back the House, we will have to coagulate our defecation (get our shit together). Never, ever post a thread about a Dem Congress candidate without a link to their Web site.
