Edwards coming up in national polls.
Has anyone else noticed? Little by little, Edwards is creeping up in most of the polls.

And this despite a media blackout, and a tighter budget than the big two.

Edwards is going to do it!

Everybody make sure to donate to Edwards THIS FRIDAY! We'll force the media to give him some coverage. The more people hear from John, the more they like him. GO JOHN! :thumbsup:

Donate here: https://www.johnedwards.com/action/contribute/form/
(Do not donate through ActBlue, as he does not get matching funds if you do.)

1. AndyA - let's all of us do our best to get people in our community to donate. We need
to reach out beyond the walls of DU, and get people to anti-up a few bucks.

DU alone will not raise the money......it will take many many many more than our ranks.


:hi: Good job for John!

4. You are right
We do need to reach out beyond DU. Your post inspired me to do a little something that might help. I posted the following in the Politics section of my local Craig's List, just now:



Our country can't stand four more years of Republican rule. Our civil liberties have been trampled. Our reputation around the world is shot. Young soldiers are dying. Our economy has been ruined.



Polling shows one possible Democratic nominee beats anyone the Republicans nominate: John Edwards.



The media is trying to shove Obama and Clinton down your throat. Why? Think about it.



The media is ignoring our strongest candidate. Why? Think about it.



Here is our plan to get John Edwards much needed media attention. Donate at JohnEdwards.com on Friday, January 18th, 2008.



I put the "Go for the Gold" graphic that someone posted just below it. I encourage others to do the same or similar. If you want to use my wording, feel free, or write what you want.

It's quick, easy, and free and it may help.

5. Craig's list is a great idea!
"We do need to reach out beyond DU."

That was the key to the Ron Paul folks and their huge success with fund-raising. They were ALL OVER the internet.

We need to plaster our neighborhoods with flyers and plaster the internet with our message. Go For The Gold!
