Edited on Fri Sep-12-03 07:18 PM by nothingshocksmeanymo
organization's lobbyist and another state legislator this am. We are now running ads, meeting with associations, getting out the vote AND there are a few more suprises in the works (snicker)...stay tuned....I think we can beat this...if we don't it won't be for lack of organization NOR effort.

My organization got a million mailers out this week as well..I GOT BLISTAS ON MY FINGAS!!

3. Let me thank you for the hard work.
I really want this recall to be defeated. We have to show our unity and strength against the repug regime.

Thanks

6. Appreciate that.
The vast majority of Du'ers have been a source of strength and support. It really is a drag when we had just completed the last election cycle and were getting ready for March to have this thrown in the mix...believe it or not...there are some very silent Repub lawmakers against the recall as well ( they are not terribly safe in their districts and fear a backlash)

4. Cool...
I'd like to see ALL the candidates do a joint appearance here. Joined by Hillary, Bill, Gore, the Democratic congressional caucus, etc. etc.

5. Dean deserves credit for starting this.
He was the first one to openly get out there for Davis.

12. Dean or Sharpton...
the point is that several of the Dems are getting out there to show support and unity, and that's what counts! :)

7. A Large California Welcome to Senator Bob Graham!
First Dean and now Graham.

Good for them.

California Democrats will not forget it.

Bravo, Senator Graham! :toast:

10. Give 'em Hell Senator!!
Sharpton, Dean, Graham, and Clinton. That's some heavy firepower!

And thanks to all of the DU'ers in my former home state of California for standing up for democracy. Godspeed

14. Saw a Graham bumper sticker on a car in Hollywood the other day
It made me very happy. It shows that people are thinking and acting; he's someone you don't just sort of pick up on because you hear about him from everyone and friends are all jumping aboard, at least not out here.

I also have a soft spot for the guy: he feels good. A reassuring avuncular figure from the center might be a great healing presence for a wounded and angry nation.

15. I've gaing a LOT of
respect for Graham lately, too bad his campaign seems to be going nowhere. He would be a great VP choice, although I would really hate to lose his Senate seat or let jebbie pick his replacment.

16. Yesssss!!!!!!
Thank you Senator Graham for joining with Al Sharpton, Howard Dean and Bill Clinton in coming to California and publically opposing another attempt by the Republicans to STEAL another election!

Does anyone know if any of the other 6 (7?) candidates plan on coming out here to speak against the recall? EVERY influential Democratic voice is needed NOW!

17. This is great news!
I'd really love to see all the dem candidates go to CA together in a unified attempt to defeat this recall. That would send a wonderful message. In the meantime, the ones who choose to go to CA and fight to defeat the recall have my support...kudos to them all!
