What have you been doing to defeat the rotten radical RePukes and help Dems?
As I have done for years, I have been donating (in small amounts, but every little bit helps), some canvassing, some phonebanking, putting up signs around my town and in my yard, and writing letters to the editor. I have also rallied with Dems and Big Dog in South Portland and have attended local party meetings. We have a rotten horrid whackjob of an asshole TeaShitHead trying to be governor of Maine. Tomorrow I am going to a televised debate in support of our candidate Libby Mitchell who could be our first woman governor if we can keep pounding down Paul "LePUKE" LePage.

Any little bit of time you can give even phonebanking for an hour here and there, donating five bucks, putting out some signs, anything, is so appreciated. You can phonebank even from home. Please help. We can't let the TanMan, TeaScum, Limpballs, BeckerHead, and the rest of that horrid scum celebrate on Nov. 3rd.

1. Not as much as I would have liked
The loss of both my wife and my job within the past five months has hit me a lot heard than I expected.

I was able to show up at the state convention and even snag a spot on the Resolutions Committee, but I am still mentally drained with having to juggle all of the legal aspects, the finances, and my grief over losing Ginny.

I feel bad that I haven't done more. I'm having trouble landing another job. But maybe this week I can get off my butt and start doing something.

2. I have done some phonebanking - but not enough.
I think I am going to switch my energy from the Senate race in my state to the Governor's race..... I'm in Az.... I think I want to see Brewer gone more than McCain.

4. My wife is running for State House for our District.
I have devoted pretty much all my free time to helping her defeat our repug representative. I have donated money to other campaigns though.
