AWD campaign fundraiser - Day 2
Welcome to the second and final day of the "AWD For Congress" fundraiser!!!!!!

If you can donate anything, from 5 bucks on up, please do. The campaign has now been officially announced, and we are now starting to make waves in the community. We need your help to be fully effective.

www.jeffseemannforcongress.com is the online home to my campaign. The page is still in demo mode (until tomorrow), so feel free to visit and offer advice on how you think the page can be better.

Contribute to the campaign via PayPal, or you can send a check to the address provided on the webpage! Please be sure to let us know of your donation by making a pledge on the "Donate" link!

Your money will go towards electing a candidate that vows never to let the destructive right-wing government take over America again.

We have set two goals for this fundraiser....2,000 dollars, or 100 separate donors. Let's reach both goals! If I get 4 donors an hour between now and 1am EST tonight, we reach one of those goals!

Thank you for your support,
Jeff Seemann
Democratic Candidate, 16th District of Ohio, US House Of Representatives

P.S. Please keep this kicked to the top...we'll update the progress as often as we can!

3. I don't do this very often
But I will disclose that I sent a hundred bucks to Jeff's campaign right after he announced. Now, I know that a lot of you DUers don't have that kind of scratch; hell, a lot of us are lucky just to have jobs! But pop by the web site, think it over for a few minutes, and then make a donation.

The Fat Cats were doing it all weekend! Sending in thousand$ and thousand$ of dollars, buying their way to a brighter future at your expense. Beat 'em at their own game -- there are a lot more of us than there are of them, and even a ten dollar donation can go a long way. Maybe it'll stretch all the way from Ohio to Washington DC!

6. Hey, I didn't post for the thank you
But you're welcome anyway. I just posted as a genuine, gratuitous style bump.

And as everyone at DU knows, I'd never e-e-e-ver do that twice on a thread.

:evilgrin:

7. I know
...but a politician can never thank people enough....

Or at least the good ones, that is.

12. Well we're counting on you as one of the good ones
But this shouldn't be construed as another gratuitous bump. I do that only once for any thread, you know.

And I'd surely not do it for some fundraising thread.

Just so you all know.

14. And I stand foursquare against
bumping threads just so they go back to the top of a forum.

I hate that!

So don't make me say it again.

9. Go get 'em Jeff!
Oh, and your page takes too long to load (at least 5 seconds) on a dial-up. But maybe it's just me - I'm not especially patient. Need to simplify, I think.

11. Someone whom I admire..
....VERY much just donated 50 bucks. They pledged it on my site not long ago. Thanks VERY much.

Everyone who takes their hard-earned money and sends it to my campaign has my undying gratitude. With people like you on my side, I can never lose.

Thank you!

23. C'mon, DUers
How often do you get a chance to buy a piece of your very own Congressman? Goodness!!

(Of course, it is a little early in the day for the evening crowd.)

I sent my pledge yesterday.

32. Done
Hey Jeff, do you have an opponent in the primary?? Just wondering, I have Phillip Crane as my repug rep, a worthless alchy but in my district halk the time he is unopposed, one of these days..... well, maybe someday I'll buy you lunch on the hill.

Everyone, while I am sure Jeff will do well for the constituents in his district he will also be a voice for DUers everywhere. Lets all do what we can for him.

38. Sent my check this AM
Just as I promised. Will try to send more later.
C'mon Duers......we get to buy our very own politician. I have always wanted to do that. Maybe we will all get a job in D.C.
And we get to dictate how he votes. Remember all the perks of owning your very own congressperson. Of course, with the diverse views of all the Duers, I doubt that Jeff could keep us all happy. Instead of nay, yay, or abstain, he will be saying OMG, WTF, or ROFLMAO.

You don't have to give til it hurts, but how about until it feels good.
