1. I'm going to lunch before I pass out....

kicking my own thread, so there. :p

[Nikki Stone1]

34. :p

....

[Iwasthere]

2. However Elizabeth DID say to donate to the campaign

http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=389x476656

[FuzzyDicePHL]

3. Indeed.

That's what I did.

[ourbluenation]

16. omg - I LOVE your shirt. Of all the people I HAD to have lose in November

he was number 1.

[Nikki Stone1]

21. Great shirt!!

:rofl:

[FuzzyDicePHL]

37. Thanks!

to you both for the kind words! :)

[JuniperLea]

6. I think that was a bad idea on her part

The RWNutJobs are already saying Edwards is using this as a sympathy ploy.

I'm going to send flowers and change my standing Susan G. Komen donation to Elizabeth's name instead of my Grandmother's this time around.

Great thread! Lots of good ideas!

[benny05]

10. That thread title was confusing to me too

The context was completely taken out. Someone called the campaign, asked what they could do for her, and she suggested a donation to the campaign.

[JuniperLea]

12. Beware the knee-jerk reaction I guess

She's a fine lady and I mean no disrespect, but the Freepers are goind wild with this.

And I feel shame for caring what they think, but at the same time... Know Thine Enemy:)

[benny05]

15. Yeah I suggested to the blogger to edit the title

For that reason, but I guess it was too late.

[Nikki Stone1]

25. ....

...

[robinlynne]

24. She said it this morning in the interview on public radio before these threads started.

She wants to move ahead with the campaign, as opposed to thinking about her illness. (you know what I mean.) The most important thing to her at this moment is her family and the edwards campaign, in that order.

[Nikki Stone1]

20. That is a concern.

I'm sure it wasn't meant that way but to some it sounds opportunistic.

I see no problem with donating to the campaign.

[JuniperLea]

22. I don't see a problem either

For moral support in addition to financial.

I hate that I'm swayed by Freeper'Pinion, but I hate seeing them given fodder too. Oh well. It's done.

[ourbluenation]

17. and I tell my hubby to not get me a thing for my birthday, but love the flowers

when he shows up with them. :)

[Nikki Stone1]

33. I like'm myself.

:)

[maddezmom]

4. thanks for putting this in one thread

:hi: I'm sure I can find one or 2 things to donate to in her name.

[Nikki Stone1]

31. ....

....

[benny05]

5. It is good to put these in one thread

Whoever wishes to chip in for the flowers, I would send the flowers next week. EE is on the road with JRE for the next 3 days.

I give money monthly, so I guess my defacto choice is the campaign.



Profiles of courage--those two.

[Nikki Stone1]

23. Yes.

Great people

[JuniperLea]

7. Good job!

Great idea to gather all the thread links together! Proving once more and again that you have a heart of gold!


:hug:

[sandnsea]

8. Or do a few of them

or all of them.

Life without flowers is a life not worth living. It's a mistake to not make room for the pleasures of life.

[Nikki Stone1]

30. Ah, there's an idea!

:D

[movonne]

9. I just donated to the campaign...that, if done today will tell her how

we feel..

[Nikki Stone1]

28. Great

That certainly will help

[Nikki Stone1]

11. This is a great OP. We all have different ways of appreciating Elizabeth

Thanks ourbluenation! :)

[maddezmom]

13. agree

That's the beauty of DU and Dems...we all do things differently, bur we do things to help others. :)

[Nikki Stone1]

14. Exactly

And such good suggestions all of them

[benny05]

18. You Can Also Send a Note to Them at the Website

[Nikki Stone1]

19. That's a good idea too

:yourock:

[benny05]

26. Yes, they rock! nt

[Nikki Stone1]

And I hope he gets his chance to run
