Open Thread

So tell us how things are going with the campaign in your neck of the woods.

Have you tried using that online calling tool on the campaign's website yet?

By the way... I just received the following note from President Clinton - he might be able to explain the importance of helping out with a contribution a bit more eloquently than I ever could...

In all my years in politics, I've never seen anything quite like what you did for Hillary last week.

In the 48 hours before New Hampshire, there was an incredible outpouring of support from Hillary's online community. And I saw the results on the ground.

I was in New Hampshire on Primary Day. I saw the signs, the phone banks, the vans taking people to the polls. After spending the day talking to volunteers and voters, both Hillary and I knew the ground was shifting, and it was shifting toward us. Your support made the difference in that election.

Now Hillary faces an unprecedented challenge: reaching voters in 24 states in just 25 days, and she cannot do it without your help.

Contribute now to help Hillary win.

There has never been a challenge like this before in the history of American politics: building a national campaign in less than one month. I know that Hillary is up to it. Just look at how she won New Hampshire, with grace and passion and hard work. You're going to see that every day when she's president.

But first you have to be there for her, just like you were in New Hampshire. Will you help make sure Hillary's campaign has the resources to run a national campaign in less than a month?

Every day is going to count. Every vote is going to count. And yes, every dollar is going to count.

Contribute now to help Hillary win


Every day Hillary tells me how much she appreciates what you are doing for her campaign. Thank you from the both of us.

Sincerely,

Bill Clinton

Hi guys!
Goldberry here. I got voted off the DailyKos Island last night. It was the algorithm that did it. It was worth it to see the Obamaphiles show their true colors. Anyway, Kos and I have mutually agreed that he not turn on my privileges until after the primary wars are over. I'm cool with that but it means that I can't post comments for now.
In the meantime, would any of you be interested in taking over the Friday night Cocktail Hour? It looked like we were starting to attract some despondent types from the campaigns where candidates have dropped out. Edwards people look like good pickups. They are decent people that just got a little aggressive but they're positively lucid compared to the Obamaphiles. Anyway, we're nicer and prettier than the Obama people so, naturally, they would be attracted to us. ;-)
So, I'll be back at DailyKos in a couple of months and be churning out snark on the Republicans. I can hardly wait.
In the meantime, keep up the good work. I'll be here and there and lurking.
