[callous taoboy]

1. Gave

50 bucks. 100 clams so far and more to come steadily during the next few months.

2. We love You

3. It was $450,000 away at 7:45 this morning

I think he will make it. :D

I gave $20 (out of a checking account balance of $22.47) this morning. :evilgrin:

[LynzM]

4. This, my friends, is why

BushCo is going down! Easy to give $2k when you have 100s, harder to give just a little when you don't have much, but we're all doing it!

6. You are one great person. Wow, I am very impressed with your

generosity. Thank you.

[Zero Gravitas]

19. Good for you!

:thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup:

5. We are now $50 closer.

7. I wish I could donate

Instead, I'll send a postcard from Rio (or a CD with free software) to whoever contributes.

I'll require a link to one of those sites who track donations -- don't want to be wasting my money on lurking freepers, you know.

8. What time is shutoff?

[NewHampster]

9. My guess is when they decide they've hit the target.

or tonights unity dinner which ever comes first

[strategery blunder]

14. 5:00 pm

but the E-mail I got from the Kerry campaign doesn't specify what time zone. I'm guessing Eastern.

I don't think his website will update until 4:15 ET, but I would think it's over $10 million by now (or at least within a grand or so, which he will collect over the last 45 minutes).

Edit: corrected fuzzy math

[NewHampster]

16. If they learned anything they'll leave it close even if they make it

Just to keep that little extra flowing.

I bet the 4:15 bar says $9,999,700 or some other close number.

[FrankBooth]

10. $50.00 from me too

I've been meaning to do this, thanks for the reminder.

[NewHampster]

12. Cool - Reminders are a good thing, I think? Hmmm where did I ..

What was I talking about

[Mountainman]

11. Just gave $100, more to come latter on I think n/t

[NewHampster]

13. Wow I am impressed by everyones generosity at DU

We Rock

[efhmc]

15. Where can we check on the latest totals?

[NewHampster]

21. They'll post it at 4:15 on

www.johnkerry.com

[strategery blunder]

27. It's well after 4:15 and they still haven't updated it

Perhaps they made it and don't want to reveal it until the deadline?

[mobuto]

17. Uh oh, Kerry's losing steam!

$10 million in ten days, a Democratic record! Panic! Panic!

[kiahzero]

18. Just donated $25

Probably will donate more outta the next paycheck.

My first political donation ever... =D

[NewHampster]

20. Feels good doesn't it?

Its a first year for many of us.

Woo Hoo

$10 Million in 10 Days

[goddess40]

22. donation

This is Goddess40's mom. Just donated $100. Hope to give more in the future.

[blm]

24. Heh...does that mean Goddess40 is under 18?

There are alot of teens at DU it seems. Gives us older folks hope for the future.

[NewHampster]

26. Thanks Mom

We love You

[Vickers]

23. My first donation ever, too!

When the confirmation came back it said:

"Thanks Vickers, your credit card contribution of $50.00 has been approved."

But I thought it said $5,000 and I almost had a heart attack!

[FlaGranny]

25. I donated what I could already, but

as others have said - more to come later.

[Chuletas]

28. I'm in too!

Hundred bucks. My first to a presidential candidate. The thought of GW coming to Boston today to collect a million bucks really irks the hell out of me.

[NewHampster]

29. thanks from all of us

The bum stopped in manchester. I almost got hit by Airforce One on its approach.
