Hi everybody! This is my first post.

I really like it here and I'm so glad I found this place! A little about me: I'm in my mid thirties. I'm married with no children. My first presidential vote was for Clinton and I've gotten progressively more liberal since then. My family is mostly democrats. I love to read and I enjoy spending time with my family(most of them anyway). I'm a volunteer for Obama and the local Democratic party. And I'm really glad to be here.

Glad to hear you're with your local OFA, a friend in Oregon just called me this weekend to describe her work for them in her mostly red small town. Will be glad to hear how the work is going with your group. A couple of links:

Barack Obama (Group)


http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=forum&id=1102

Democracy for America (Group)

http://www.democraticunderground.com/?com=forum&id=1105

We also have different state groups and Democratic Party groups. Just don't give personal details since the anti-Democrat website members also read this place. I look forward to seeing your posts.

I am new too. I just found the site by accident. I have been on a couple of other forums(sodahead and topix)but they were infested with hate filled republicans who had no clue what their party was doing to this Country. I have been a Dem since I turned 18 and have not missed voting since that birthday. I too worked for the Obama campaign(did phone banks at the local university) and made my first donation to a Presidential Campaign ever to help elect Barack Obama. Hope I see you around!!

I hope you will enjoy it here.

Out of curiosity, what does the 'stolen08' part of your username mean?

Thanks!
