87. Hold on a second
I do not want to get into a shouting match, but the DCCC helps all of us candidates. If you do not like your member of Congress, do something about it, I am. I am running to replace an ultra-conservative who is President Bush's point man on Social Security. I am doing something about it, and let me assure you, I do have a backbone.

I need their help as well. I am running against a very well funded incumbent, and will most definately need the help of the DCCC. Please, do not, not donate simply because you feel that current members do not live up to your standards, instead think of those of us who are trying to stand up and shout, and need the help!
