I just contributed to Kerry's campaign today
I've never contributed to a political campaign, but today, I contributed $50 to Kerry's campaign.

Felt pretty good, too, I must say. Fifty is about all I can afford (no raises in three years (thank you GWB and a cheap-ass boss to boot (a Republican, too, I might add, go figure)).

My husband is going to give to Kerry as well soon.

I was wondering, how many other DU'ers have contributed? Many?

your boss is not very smart if he is a Republican!

9. I bought some "Kerry Gear" from his site...
I have some Kerry fans in the family whose b-days are coming up. I haven't received it yet - I placed the order on Monday (8th), and they said it should arrive in 2-3 days... I wonder what's up. They also said to allow a week, but I'm in Ohio, so I didn't think it would be that long. Has anyone else ordered from the site? How long did you wait for your order?

11. I ordered a jacket
Edited on Sun Mar-14-04 06:51 PM by cheryl27
(and since I needed a new one I might as well be a walking billboard, LOL) and it came in about 10 days. Very good quality for the price.

and Welcome to DU! :hi:

19. The 2-3 days is when it will be shipped and it can take up to 5 business
days after that, in my experience.

14. Good for you!
Feels great to be fighting back, doesn't it? We cancelled our family vacation this year so we could give JK 2K.

Welcome to DU! :hi:

17. Good show!
My husband and I gave him $100 a few days ago, the largest contribution we've ever given to a campaign.

Kerry can't win without a lot of money. Let's go, folks!

18. Think I will also and I am poor.
I also just got a call from Alaska from a girl from Russia that wanted money as the college has gone so high in cost. I will also most likely send some. I had to work my way through college, married and I could not get a loan, so I know how hard that is.

20. Good for you, SCRUBDASHRUB!
I maxed out in January, before the Iowa caucausus, so I ordered 100 John Kerry buttons, and I give them out when I go out. Getting a lot of good vibes here in central Florida!

The tide is turning. People are waking up to Shrub's failed presidency, littered with his broken promises.

21. :) Thanks...I swear, I am just hoping we take back the WH!!!!!!!!!!!
Some days, I swear, it seems rough living in VA, where it's GOP country.

I must say, I am really glad for DU (should give thanks to the founders here); it's a cool place I can come to chill and discuss things w/ like-minded, sane people.

(((((((((HUGS)))))))))))) everyone!!

I'm so 'pharklempt" (choked up!)!!

24. I did the other day
for the first time after he refused to apologize to the repubics for telling the truth. And it felt great! Also, I will be donating to MoveOn next month. I have been seeing their lie detector commercial. It's great! I have also been seeing one by the Media Fund (I think that is what it is called). I have only see one pro * all weekend.
