You know I hate to do it, but...
I got out my credit card and donated $20 to:

Moveon.org:
https://pol.moveon.org/give/keyraces4.html?id=9083-4541333-UF6Yj5h6vyTz8FXqBSgsCA&t=1

Ok, I really didn't hate to do it! I just was so lazy I almost couldn't get off the couch to get the cc.

Here's what was in the MOveOn email:

"The first candidate, Christine Jennings in Florida-13, probably shouldn't be ahead in the polls—but she is. The district is pretty Republican—Katherine Harris used to represent it—however Jennings has a 40-year history as a woman business leader who was active in her community. Her opponent is a millionaire and is out-spending her. You can help.

The second candidate is an energetic district attorney in New York's 24th—Michael Arcuri. Arcuri was the first Democrat in 40 years to win his current elected post. He is leading too but also being outspent by the national Republicans."


Let me know if you know others to donate to.

1. Good for You! MoveOn is not a bad place to donate to..
...they just receive a bad rap in the media.

I think Act Blue is also an excellent resource for finding out where funds are needed the most:
