I am not sure how many people are in my situation, but today I gave my last money donation before the big day. I think I maxed out weeks ago, but I know they give it to the DNC so it all goes to "the cause":

LAST DONATION HERE

At the end of the donation, instead of the usual "invite your friends" it asked for your personal story and I wanted to share it with all of you. Not because it has some deep touching outcome or some meaningful analgous message about society. No, I am sharing because I think that I am like the millions of people who make up the slient majority who have been sitting out for year waiting for this moment to be heard.

I realize that this is not much of a diary, but it seems like the fastest way to get this information out there. There are a couple of events here in H-town that are not getting much run.

First, Moveon.org is organizing a rally tomorrow in downotwn to deliver a petition to the gop and oil companies. I wish they had sent his out sooner. It seems like if you want a good representation of the progressives in Houston, you should tell us more than 24 hours in advance...but oh well.

Anyway, I wanted to pass it along as quickly as I could - so here you go:

I am an attorney in Texas, a max donor to the Obama campaign and a precinct captain here in H-town. I live in one of the more progressive areas in Texas. We delivered our state senate district something like 70:30 for Obama, and ensure that DEMS stay in the our city's mayor's office (even though Houston doesn't run on party lines)

As with many of my neighbors, I volunteered for the Obama campaign. In fact, we had an abundance of volunteers when the primary came to town, including 8 "captains" for my precinct alone. Given the situation with my overachieving neighborhood, I assumed that even though I signed up, there was going to be little work I could do for the campaign - other than phone calls and local GOTV/GOTC efforts.

Well, Team Obama proved me wrong (more after the jump)

OK. With all this talk of Michagan and Florida getting sat at the convention or having revotes, I figured that maybe some other states might also want the chance to vote again. Turns out, I was right.
