Anyway, their software isn't perfect by a long shot, and having a box marked "make it monthly" AUTOMATICALLY checked, and leaving it up to the contributor to uncheck it is sneaky to the point of being downright dishonest. When they started claiming my CC was invalid when the rest of the world thinks otherwise raised a flag with me. When my MSNBC friend confirmed they were far less than white (or blue) knights in shining armor, I decided it was time the candidates I wanted to help got 100% of what I was sending them, and not 93.05%. I'm no Republican--I can still read and write, so now I send checks.
