KIRSTEN IS FANTASTIC.  You what we mean when we talk about "more and better Democrats?  We mean Kirsten.

You know what makes her great?  She's incredibly accessible.  She holds tons of meetings for people to attend throughout her district all of the time, on all of the issues the peopels care about here.  

When she voted on the last supplemental bill which funded the war through Semptember, she didn't go and hide.  THAT NIGHT, she appeared at an open public forum and took all the crap that people had to say to her, she answered all of the questions from her heart.  Yes, in this instance she came down, just barely, on the wrong side of the fence, but she can be moved because she actually listens and doesn't use her staff as a front group.

When you talk about the phrase, 'more and better democrats', she is the one you are talking about.

When the shitty anti-Kirsten Gillibrand bullshit commercials started appearing, she sent out and e-mail asking us to send her letters and calls of support into her office.

Let's remember that this women is THE NUMBER ONE person on the Republicanhit list, since she took Drunkie McSweeney frat boy's seat.  Her opponent is SELF FUNDING, meaning, able to try to buy the seat.

The second time they started with the attack ads, I got a hastily and poorly written e-mail of the "supporter as ATM" type from her financial guys.  Truly annoying.  I spent about three minutes and wrote her Campaign Finance director what I thought of Capaign Finance Directors who treat their mailing lists as ATMs, and what a long term thoughtful, multi-tiered approach would look like, ground up, from the netroots.  And told him to never, ever use my e-mail as a fundraiser for lazy assed campaign finance directors again.

Well, you know what happens send these things in...the recipient hits the delete button like your e-mail contains the some sort of contagious form of venereal disease.

Except not with Kirsten's folks.  I got an interesting response form her CF Direcotr, Ross Offinger, AND and apology, along with an explanation of their thinking in shooting out a quick e-mail fundraiser.  /and when did I get this response? EIGHT MINUTES AFTER I SENT MY E-MAIL TO THEM.

Eight minutes.  So when you talk about more and better democrats to support, THIS is what we are talking about.  People who listen to the people who put their asses in those seats in Congress.  And listen to them on a regular basis.
