God bless you activists ! :-)
I mean that in the best possible way. I do not have the stomach for active confrontations with people over politics, so I support all of you 100%. Keep up the good work, we "non-confronters" are behind you all the way !
Steve

Thanks

9. Orlando!!!
Just call the local Dem party. There is so much you can do without confronting anyone. We're asking folks to prepare our lists for election day, find phone numbers, etc. We're asking folks to help put up yard signs in public spaces. Many are just tedious tasks but so necessary for a campaign.

Welcome to DU!

6. Absolutely agree with you.
We've been throwing the majority of our disposable income at the DNC, the DSCC, local and national campaigns since we hopped on the bandwagon during the primaries. The Mr. and I are fairly asocial, we tend to get rattled easily when people want to argue, so we figured standing on the sidelines with our checkbooks would enable people who were a lot better at it than we are -- but we're also deeply thankful to those who are good at interacting with people directly, you guys are the reason our contributions seem worthwhile!

8. Just remember, for every activist, there are 100+ people...
backing you and encouraging you ! Even if it's with our checkbooks. Ok, now where is my checkbook ?
