2. I have donated a lot to them.
They have been dissed previously on this board for having jackets and Palm Pilots, but all I see is a ton of registered new voters in Portland, ACT volunteers on the lightrail, on the buses, and in my neighborhood registering new voters and following up with door-to-door canvassing.

They are said to have registered about 70,000 new voters in Cleveland.

I think they kick ass, and I know first-hand that their people work like hell.

4. The Will Ferell ad ALONE
made my contribution worthwhile. If you haven't watched it yet, do so immediately. I almost wet my pants.

5. They are a great organization

They are leading the way in registering new voters and are about to start a massive GOTV effort.

I would donate as much as possible to them because they are hiring people to work (people need jobs) and really making a difference in voter numbers.
They will be turning out voters for Democratic candidates all up and down the ticket.
