I have said it on this site and elsewhere that I did not believe Obama could win. After seeing the exit polls in Ohio, I gave up. Too much hate. Too much fear.
But I still gave. $100 here, $50 there. Mainly when someone here challenged me.
But now I'm starting to believe. I'm seeing it in the polls and from talking to people. I know polls today mean nothing come November. But I'd much rather be where we are today than where McCain is. I'm not convinced we'll win but I'm getting there. I just don't have enough confidence in the electorate once the hate from the Right really kicks in. And I've been hurt so many times before. But my belief on our chances mean nothing. What's important is our work and our money.
Now here's the challenge. I'm tired of hearing the MSM telling me that my support for Obama is softening because of his alleged move to the center. Fuck 'em. They want to make a race out of this. They don't know me. And they don't know you.
So just now I made a recurring $100.01 donation. And I'm challenging you to do the same. $5.01. $10.01. $100.01 or whatever. But let's show Barack that our support is not weakening and it won't weaken. Make a recurring contribution to show that we are in it for the long haul.
I will probably give more as election day nears. But for now. For today... I challenge you to also make a recurring donation. Let's show the MSM that we support Barack. And more importantly, let's show Barack that we support Barack.
Are you in?!?
