Note to Edwards supporters: Donate directly, NOT through ActBlue
I'm sure the point has been made here before, but the FEC has decided not to match funds donated to the John Edwards campaign through ActBlue.

So if you want to donate to Edwards, and you want your donations to Edwards matched, best donate directly:

2. Maybe the campaign should shut down the ActBlue page... (n/t)

3. I don't doubt that ActBlue is a good funnel of money for them
given its prevalence on blogs and sites like this one, so they'd probably want to keep that money coming in.

Edwards supporters who want to donate more effectively, though, should donate directly.

5. Adding the 5th R.
This is important since, I believe, Edwards has led these DU donations.

6. I did - my donation this week went directly through his website...
....last one I sent went through ActBlue - until I found out they're not matched. :mad:

7. Damn, I just donated to him this morning before I saw this post!
Oh well, he still will at least get my $50 that I sent him.
