#ChooseACandidate She can't do it alone!

I was so inspired by http://www.democraticunderground.com/12512325949 PdxSean's request for suggestions for a candidate to work for upon his retirement that I signed up and donated to two NH candidates (I live outside of Boston). Then I decided to start one of those thingeys on Twitter that begin with a pound sign. I'm not sure how those work... who sees them unless someone tells them to look, so I'm asking you all to join in and tell the world in #ChooseACandidate which house and/or senate candidates you've chosen to support. IMPORTANT - It's not OK to sit this one out if your home state/district candidates are safe.

She can't do it alone!!

This is what I tweeted.

"#ImWithHer so I'm starting #ChooseACandidate. Pick a contested house and senate candidate to support with time and money."

Check BallotPedia.org to find competitive races.

It turns out #ChooseACandidate already existed. But it seems to be an OK home for my sentiment.
