1. Interesting, Pete. Great to hear NY Dems are fired up to beat Bushco!

As a co-host, were you representing DU? I was intrigued by your last comment.

Did most of the candidates make an appearance at the dinner?

2. So why is the DNC competing with the candidates for money????

I got an email from Carville saying that Sept. 30 was a deadline to give to the DNC. That's a load of crap. What deadline does the DNC have on Sept. 30? THis is blatant competition to hurt the candidates fund raising. WHY?

5. I don't have a big problem with it.

How many Deaniacs are part of the DNC? If you go to the Dean blog, it looks like a third party candidate more than a real DNC dem. Most of the other candidates supporters are in a similar position.

6. SO what again is the Sept. 30 deadline?????

Thats the bullsh*t part. It is specifically to compete with the candidates. Its crap.

7. Well, here's one Deaniac. . .

Who never gave a dime to the DNC, but I have given twice now since being brought into active volunteerism BECAUSE of Dean.

11. Well duh, here's your answers

First, the deadline for third quarter fundraising is Sept. 30th. If you'd bother to have read the whole emails (I get them to and gave them $100) you'd see that.

Second, the ENTIRE function of the DNC is to elect Democratic Presidents, regardless of who the nominee is. So OF COURSE they're going to raise money. Did I mention they are also responsible for putting on the national convention?? $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$

8. SO what is the Sept. 30 deadline for the DNC??? Anyone?

10. end of quarter

I suspect that is the end of quarter reporting date. So, they want to show substantial donations to indicate support.

13. Shame on everyone except Clark for not showing up for the "little people"

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=show_topic&forum=104&topic_id=409868#410016

Only Clark showed up for the $25-$100 people, but every candidate lined up for the $1,500 folks - so what does the Democratic party call their "Pioneers"?
