1. I donated to them when the HCR debate was just beginning and a PO was still a possibility. nt

3. Dem candidates and causes, yes ... DNC, no



You need to add "Never" as one of the options.

..the DCCC, the DNC, Sen. Arlen Specter (when he switched parties), Sen. Harry Reid (after the Xmas Eve vote) and Cong. Cao(R) - for his healthcare vote.

8. I donated to them when Howard Dean was head, but never before and never after.
Edited on Tue Jan-05-10 05:53 AM by Hekate
When I hear they're upholding the 50-state strategy that Dean worked out, I'll reconsider my stance.

Other than that, my policy has pretty much been to donate to candidates in my own state, and sometimes directly to the presidential candidate. Gave quite a bit to Dean and to Obama, can't remember about Gore or Clinton...

My donations to the DNC stopped in '08,
right after the election.

It don't mean a thing if it ain't got the Dean.

15. Typically before the election cycle when I know they can put the money to good use
It's important that we don't allow Republicans to buy elections.

16. The DNC says it does not want my money, so why would I?
Tim Kaine is opposed to all forms of family rights including civil unions. Many at the DNC share his religious bigotry toward millions of Democratic voters. One does not donate to an organization that speaks against one's own family. At least this one does not.

17. I donated a LOT when Howard was running it
I gave them one small donation since, as they have the same Treasurer, and he is a friend of mine.
But I want to see some serious action before giving them more. My contributions since have either
been to specific candidates (or organizations) or to the Dean Brothers' DFA.

18. Interesting: 54 percent haven't donated to the DNC in more than 2 years
some never, which covers the primary and general election. Yet people are claiming that they're going to stop supporting the DNC.

:rofl:
