You might have heard of this hott new PAC. It's called GEPAC which stands for Generation Election PAC (and if you dont know what a PAC is...leave jk).
GEPAC's main goal is to get younger, more innovative candidates into office. I'm the treasurer...meaning I pretty much have the final say over our cash.
Yes. We have cash in our bank account. But we could use more. That's where you come in. Just donating $2 gets you a snazzy FREE thinkblue 2008 bracelet (think : livestrong bracelet but all blue and democratish). And we're starting this new thing where you send us your spare change (think : pennies in the bottom of your pocket).
Needless to say we need money. We have about 20 members, only because we dont have exposure, because we have no money. Read More

I feel so emotionally drained. I am amazed at the infallible stupidity and stubbornness of the American people. I can't believe that people honestly think that their personal religion/ myth they choose to live by should have any influence on other peoples' lives, and on our country's politics. They argue that our country has a "Christian heritage" and that's why we can have Christian influences in our government. It's true that the original people who sailed over here were Christian, but when America actually became its own nation, the people made their intentions clear: that the government would not be influenced by any religion. We've gone so far from what those founding whiteys intended for our country to be-- a government run in the interest of all the people, with the people keeping the government in check and the government being completely seperate from the church. Like Jesus, people do so many crappy things in their name. Read More

the washington post says howard dean has the dnc chairmanship all but sewed up:

"activist simon rosenberg abandoned his bid for democratic national committee chairman on friday and backed front-runner howard dean, moving the former presidential candidate closer to capturing the party title.

rosenberg's departure from the race leaves a field of three -- dean; democratic activist donnie fowler, who ran the kerry-edwards campaign in michigan, and former indiana rep. tim roemer."

Hey everybody. I'm in an inquisitive mood today. So I wanna see where we all stand on 2004. As much as it hurts to admit it--we screwed up. Could it have been that we trusted the exit polls forgeting the cardnal rule of exit polls-- that democrats and diehards vote early? Could it be that we were too liberal? To divided as a party? Not energizing our base? Did a shitty job with GOTV (get-out-the-vote for all you non campaign people) in "red" states? It might be a while before we know exactly why we lost, other then that we didnt get enough votes, but I'm really interested to see where you all stand on this.

wow. i found so many things MAD frusturating in Bush's speech i dont know where to begin.
-he began by claiming to have created 2.3 million new jobs last year. yet he failed to mention that the majority of the jobs he created are minimum wadge jobs of which a primary supporter of a family would have to take 3 just to stay above the poverty line.
-bush went on to call the economy flexable and strong. ha. how can the economy be strong when the stock market is still majorly down from where it was before he took office?
-bush said he wants alternative fuel sorces. he specifically mentioned clean coal. clean coal is one of the biggest oxymorons there is. clean coal uses (gasp) -oil- to be refined into clean coal, so essentially we'd be using the oil anyways. same with ethanol. ethanol uses oil to become ethanol in some crazy scientific way that i'm not even gonna try to understand but kids thats how they do it. so either way we're using the oil anyways so why dont we use it in our cars?

New Jersey-Codey Bows Out
As expected, NJ Acting Governor Richard Codey said this weekend that he won't be running for Governor in 2005. Codey's decision, which (go me!) I predicted correctly the day Congressman Rob Andrews endorsed Senator Jon Corzine leaves Corzine as the Democratic nominee for Governor. With the lackluster GOP field unlikely to get much traction against the popular billionaire, Corzine will very likely be New Jersey's next Governor, barring any suprises. The speculation on who he will appoint to succeed him in the Senate will continue to build in the meantime.
