If money's tight at your place, I totally get that, but if
you can send along a modest donation to re-elect Russ Feingold in Wisconsin, it would count as a very good investment, IMO.

He's a good man.

I'm echoing the sentiments of many posters in this thread:

-- in urging those who can offer some hard bucks for a great Senator.

Thanks.

2. The 'Cheddar Bomb' worked very well. Wonder is Feingold will repeat it.

3. If he voted against the patriot act, that is enough for me to support him.
Not very many had the ability to think through the haze of the ideology to make that vote correctly.

7. Yes. He's been a champion of an awful lot of good
things and none of those things can afford to lose him as an advocate.

4. Agree. I just got an e-mail from Joe Biden (we're tight) asking for a contribution
for Ron Klein, and he asks for just $5 or $10, so the little ones add up.

I understand the difference between "money being tight" and not. having. the. money. period. When money's tight, I'll send $5 or $10 and drive less or stretch my food more. When I. Don't. Have. The. Money. - literally, not a cent to my name, I'm hopeful others can help out.

This is one where I feel it's so important to try to rustle up a few bucks. He's not just A Dem, -- he's one of our best!

:patriot:

12. He's at his best when he's up in it. He can turn this thing around.

He reminds me of a crusty Paul Wellstone.

13. I'm hoping that happens, definitely. Not only because
his opponent is a self-promotional weasel but also because Russ Feingold is the bee's knees.

We have just got to have Feingold re-elected.

:hi:

15. Recommended. He is ABSOLUTELY deserving...

16. Hi, YvonneCa. Yep. Feingold is in many ways the
ideal public servant.

He is strong-willed and tries to steer clear of corporate contamination of public policy.

I think he has progressive fans all over the country. Now he needs all his friends in Wisconsin to show up and cast a vote.

:hi:
