I checked out your website at: http://molinaforcongress.com/ - and found it to be very well done. You are an impressive candidate! I would like to wish you the best of luck on behalf of Democracy for America Group at Democratic Underground.

I think we've got to believe though that we can take this country back and I applaud your efforts. Mousepads, shoe leather and hope!

From Chapter 5 "Finance and Fundraising:"
