[ QUOTE ] I'm going to donate, it just pisses me off that there are actually members of this website too stupid to do the same. Theres probably thousands right now who are just opening the thread and closing it while they go back to their 5/10 nl games. [/ QUOTE ] So true, that's what I was and realized how pathetic it is. Just donated $20. [/ QUOTE ] Some of us would love to donate but have to wait until our green cards come in. No political donations from H1-B foreign nationals allowed.

Re: If you can give a little money to try to defeat Jon Kyl
Pace of donations is really picking up! Wonder if some of those posts on other sites are starting to get some action, or if this is mostly 2p2. Personally, I checked this thread three times and finally felt stupid for NOT donating earlier.
C'mon guys! Think of it as an investment in the future! Even if Kyl wins, the message will have been sent.

Re: If you can give a little money to try to defeat Jon Kyl
You really shouldn't donate any more. It's a waste. All ad buys and other expenditures have already been planned out. The deadline was for effectice contributions was a few days ago. The only thing to do now is volunteer.
I think we should start up another actblue page to contribute to, and target someone else next cycle. With two years instead of a few days, I'm sure we could really make an actual impact / media coverage on a race. P.S. I tried to make this same anti-Kyl actblue page about a year ago, and it got moved over to politics where it died.

Re: If you can give a little money to try to defeat Jon Kyl
We're doing a great job with the money so far, but don't forget the actual votes too! Contact EVERYONE you know who lives in Arizona. Tell them to vote for Jim Pederson and also to spread the word. They'll tell your friends, and they'll tell their friends, ...
If you can't spare the money, at least spare the time. Better yet, do BOTH!!

[/ QUOTE ] I agree that the number of donations is very low considering the number of people viewing this thread, but when I donated a couple of days ago there were only 34 donors. That's what I was referring to. I fully agree it should be a LOT higher.

Re: If you can give a little money to try to defeat Jon Kyl
I agree that this might make no difference, but it is a start. If this makes sense now it will make a lot more sense in 2008 when one can get a committment from some candidates.
I gave $20 to Pederson and $5 to ActBlue just to pay the blinds. I started a thread on bet the pot forums. cat923
