I will take GOPisevil's challange for TX and DOUBLE it for PA!
That's right, for every additional donation DU gets from Pennsylvania between now and the end of the fund drive, I will donate an additional $2. In addition, I will donate that money in the name of a PA DUer who cannot afford to donate (just let me know who you are by posting in this thread).

C'mon, Pennsylvania, are you going to let Texas and GOPisevil beat us? Let's get out there and donate!

2. You know, they don't have any liberals in Texas.
You must have missed to thread in which I said that. I was trying to pick a fight, but as usual you took the high ground.

And yeah, I copied you. That's what smart people do. They take a good idea and make it better! :evilgrin:

3. Pennsylvanians needs some encouragement, it looks like
They've only got 11 DU donations so far. That's less than half the rate of Texas, per person. And Pennsylvania should have a higher proportion of Democrats, since they voted for Gore in 2000.

Come on, Pennsylvanians, time to bankrupt Finnfan! :-)

7. C'mon Pennsylvania!
In terms of per capita donations, we are just barely ahead of 2 Canadian provinces. This is an embarrassment! You're not going to let VelmaD, an admitted Texan, prove she's more liberal than we are? Are we?

10. Oh, just rub it in, why don't you.
At least we have a Democratic governor (although judging from the response here I don't know how he ever got elected)! So take that!

13. I said "some folks around here"
You'd never disparage Texas; just certain idiots who claim residence here.

14. Speaking of which, have you ever seen the episode of SpongeBob
in which Sandy wants to go back home to Texas? She goes into a murderous rage whenever anyone disparages her home state. It's a classic!

(BTW, thanks for helping me hijack my own thread.)
