| for six days now, i've been explaining why i wanted to make a difference and help california return to the democratic fold with phil angelides elected to replace the buffoon, schwarzenegger.
there is more at stake here than the governorship - schwarzenegger has already launched one attack on california's blue status with his attempt at redistricting the state. fortunately, we were able to beat back that attempt THIS time. we may not be so lucky the next go round.
also, phil angelides is a REAL democrat - supporting the individual over the illegal rate increases by the hmo's in california. he will protect the natural resources of this state while pushing to enable greater movement toward renewable energy. this benefits the REST of the nation and the world, not just those of us here in california!
i am asking - no, begging you to take a moment and make a donation - i do not have cash - i cannot do this but i CAN reward those who help with a strand of pearls made by the humble mollusk and strung by me! the highest donor will receive a strand appraised at over $500 with a 14k gold clasp - the random drawing will be of a strand worth a minimum of $200 with a sterling clasp.
it is what i have to offer california to make a difference. how about you? if you can't contribute, please recommend this diary so that others might see it and have a chance to participate!
to make a difference, send your donation here to the angelides campaign and email me at takebackcongress2006 at gmail dot com.
i will wait for one more day to post the winners (on sunday) to allow for emails to reach me and for me to confirm that all are included. the contest ends at 8pm tomorrow nite.
thank you all for joining me!
