1. Even if he doesn't...we made good effort

It's really hard when the media is against you.

[ChiciB1]

2. I'm Making Calls Now... And Sending Out More Email! I'm Just

DETERMINED, or stubborn I guess! Yeah, the MEDIA and some here at DU have been especially BRUTAL!!

[ninkasi]

3. K&R

[ChiciB1]

4. Latest Total... $8,870.941! Really Close n/t

[ChiciB1]

5. Me Again... 2:00 PM Update Now Is $8,896.510 & Almost 60,500 Supporters!

Just a little more PUSH. He does have an event going on in Orlando right now... Please let it happen!

I don't know why I've gotten so caught up in this, but for some reason my brain won't let it go! I know it's so early and 2008 has some time to go, but MOMENTUM helps so much!

6. lol Dennis' entire goal is $150,000

I prefer a cheaper alternative

7. This is tough because it is Saturday. If your here, please think about donating.

Thanks!

8. What happens if the goal is met?

He wins? The war is over? Global Warming and World Hunger end?

Perhaps only subtly, there's something really disheartening about this.

[ChiciB1]

9. AAWW Shucks! Don't You Know?? The BELL Rings!!!

Total is now $8,916,896! Check out the ActBlue site here at DU and especially see WHO has raised the most money there! I have to say, given ALL the negative posts... I WAS COMPLETELY surprised!!

So, he's not your cup of tea... I'm sure you have or will find one! I'm not going to do a "put-down" of ANY of our candidates, but then that's JUST ME!!!!

[Wilms]

13. You got me wrong.

Such is the nature of the internet...and other forms of communication.

But I'm offering no critisism of Edwards as that would not be my cup of tea with regard to him.

But the apparent aim of your OP, caught my attention in a heart-breaking way.

To be fair, however, I probably should not have posted as I'm unclear of the exact context in which this plea is posted, and "ALL the negative posts" which you referred to.

[ChiciB1]

14. OKAY... n/t

[draft_mario_cuomo]

10. Only $79,000 to go!

He will make it--plenty of time left. :bounce:

[slick8790]

12. Yeah, really. It says midnight in your local time zone.

Which means 3AM EST since the west coast is 3 hours behind. Meaning, as of now, we almost have 11 1/2 hours left.

[ChiciB1]

16. Waiting To See How The Orlando Event Will Go... It Started At 2:00 PM

I'm sure he'll get er done! I know some think this is sort of strange, but then again.... keeps his name out there too!

11. 8,920,743 (n/t)

[ChiciB1]

15. I See You Have Returned! I Got My Idea From You... Thanks! n/t

[Triana]

19. :) :) :) S'Kewl...

...I'm not that skeered off!

I just want Edwards to hit his mark - so the lamestream media has one less thing to lambaste him for and so his campaign can continue successfully - and end successfully! :)

[ChiciB1]

24. Going OVER The Top... Maybe Not By MUCH... But OVER Anyway!

I'm glad this got started last night... (Triana) And it's still going, kind of like a party or something. I KNOW it's no watershed, but I see many who have "decided" to GO WITH JOHNNY!!

And Elizabeth!! I'm literally hearing "fireworks" outside my window! Ha! Ha! It's the 4th of July celebration starting early. Plus we just had the first day of the Suncoast Off Shore boat races today! I've been hearing them going up and down the Gulf for most of the day!!

But fireworks are appropriate right now!

[illinoisprogressive]

25. Good luck to Edwards. Hope he makes his goal!

[ChiciB1]

26. It's DONE! $9,000,000 AND Still Going!!!

Ten days ago the campaign needed $3.4K to reach it's goal! Just for myself, I want to say thank you for helping him out!

Three hours to go, they aren't posting figures right now, so maybe later we'll get a final!

I'm going back to watch the Herbie Hancock EXPERIENCE! Black Music Month and in between lots of New Orleans chatter! Taping it now and loving it! My mother tells me it's the Black Irish in me cause I'm whatcha call a Honky! God, don't even know if I spelled that right!

It's Been FUN.... GO, JOHNNY, GO!!

27. Chici--"K" stands for "thousand" and "M" stands for "million"

That's the second post of yours I've seen that on. No biggie, but you have to admit the latter conveys the sense of excitement better! :hi:

29. No, The First One Wasn't Mine... But I DID See It And Then Goofed

myself! I DO know the difference.

I used to be a typesetter and I was constantly hitting the (m) key when I wanted a comma. Our raw copy went to proof readers and when we saw the same errors come back for corrections we could make "formats" to check for specific errors. Why I hit the K key was strange though because the same finger isn't used for (m) as it is for (k), but the same finger IS used for (m) and the comma key.

I will go back and try to find the first post though... I DON'T recall doing it, but I must say this... NEVER say NEVER!

[ChiciB1]

30. I Can't Find The Original Post... But Went Back And Checked MY

posts since Friday morning. I only used the K once. Seems like I'm trying too hard with this correction, but I have a bad case of seeing errors and getting horrified by them. It's My OCD that kicks in.

Anyway, I DID see is used but don't know where.

[Hekate]

31. LOL--I used to be a proofreader! Old habits die hard, don't they?

I go back, recheck my work, edit... Yep, probably is a touch OCD of me too.

And funny about the "k" finger -- mine seems to be getting arthritic, so it hurts when I tap the key.

:hi:

32. My Alter Nemesis... A PROOF-READER! YIKES!

Small world ain't it! Sorry for the late reply... an old friend came by needing some advice concerning her daughter who JUST turned 18 and flew the coop! Since I've "been there done that" she felt I have "the answers" to which I say... NOT!

The kid is just like generations who have gone before us... feeling her oats! So she spent the night and just left.

And about that arthritis thing... I just got a shot in my thumb last week and I no longer say, it's hell getting OLD, at 60 I AM old! Ha! Ha!

So I'll just blame it on the arthritis too! I will say this, even though I have been diagnosed with OCD, I DO admit that most people suffer from it from time to time. Mine just got out of whack for a while. I'm doing well now and have weened myself from a lot of the CRAPPY Meds they over-load you with!

See you on the boards!

[Hekate]

33. Have a great day -- see ya! nt

[Hekate]

28. That's absolutely fabulous! Thanks a million (or so) for the good word!
