M&Ms from ALAN GRAYSON!
Sometime in the next 48 hours, we are going to accomplish something that no one has ever done before, in any House race.

Sometime in the next 48 hours, someone is going to make the 100,000th online contribution to the 2010 Grayson for Congress Campaign.

There is no House Democrat who has raised more money for the 2010 campaign. And there is no House Democrat who has done it way that we have – not by pandering to lobbyists, favor-seekers and the idle rich, but appealing to people with a conscience. People like you.

You be the one. You make the 100,000th online contribution to our campaign.

Every single one of you has my thanks – whether you’ve made a contribution, signed our petitions, made phone calls, knocked on doors, or simply offered encouragement. And thanks to you, I can do the right thing. I don’t owe anything to anyone but the voters.

And so, as a symbol of my gratitude to you, I’m going to part with something that I’m very fond of.

A box of M&Ms.

Not just any box of M&Ms. A box that President Obama gave to me. When we were on Air Force One together. A box with President Obama’s signature.

I will give that box of M&Ms to our 100,000th online contributor.

Will it be you? Will you make the 100,000th contribution to our campaign?

I will miss that box of M&Ms. But I’ll know that in some tangible way, I will have said thanks to one of the many, many people who have come together to support our campaign – our campaign for Justice, Equality, and Peace.

And if you are the one who gets that box of M&Ms, then you will have a very important decision to make.

Eat them? Or keep them?

Tough choice.

Truth,

Alan Grayson

But that's me...

3. My wife would eat them
I'm pretty sure the wife would eat them. She'd let me keep the box, but she'd eat the M&M's. She'd sell me for a few boxes of M&M', I'm pretty sure. If you pour M&M's into a glass bowl, she can hear them BEFORE they hit the bowl.

7. Pretzels
She about threw a fit when she heard they were putting pretzels in them. Something about a "sacrilegious abomination".
