Help me get involved
I am not trying to offend anyone but I feel we are spending a lot of our time patting each other on the back and bashing the other side. While this is may seem gratifying when faced with daily abuse and lies from the other side, might be an exercise in futility. I know most on this board are actually pro-active in the process. I will be the first to admit that I am not one of the active ones in the process.

With that said, I have little money so I can't contribute. I live in a state that will never vote for a Dem candidate so do not want to waste efforts on grassroots campaigning. I have no desire to run for office at this time. I also have not decided on which Dem candidate I am supporting. I think all of them are vastly superior to * but also realize only 4 of them have a realistic chance to beat him.

What can I do to help defeat Bush in 2004? Like I said, I appreciate the enthusiasm, idealism, and helpful advice of most on this board but I am concerned that we are travelling in circles and * will win next year if something major is not done. Thanks in advance.
