I Just Made My First Campaign Contribution Ever
After years of grad school poverty, I finally have a decent job and can afford to contribute now.

It feels really good!

(Can anyone guess who I contributed to?)

9. Whew....

...I see the Edwards campaign is pushing for its 100,000th donor by midnight tonight, and is only 4,788 new donors short. Not bad, considering that the one that pushed them over their goal of $9 million was a $10 dollar contribution. I like seeing lots of small contributions as opposed to fewer big ones by the hotshots.

15. Congrats!! This is the first primary contribution I've given, this cycle.
Felt just as great as supporting Kerry was in 2004.
