11:30 Bat Update -- Kasey and the Bat!
From the Official Campaign Blog

Monday, July 28, 2003

Kasey and the Bat; 11:30 Update

Director of Canine Outreach Kasey poses with the bat. Photo by John Pettitt. A high-resolution photo is available here.



Oh, somewhere in Green Mountain land the sun is shining bright.
The blogs are buzzing blithely, and Trippi’s heart is light.
A Governor is smiling, and all his interns shout.
But there is no joy for Cheney;
As mighty Kasey strikes him out.

As of 11:30 am, 6,412 Americans have contributed $335,124.88 to the Dean Team v. Bush-Cheney Challenge. Send this entry on to a friend and ask them to contribute today. Let's show the nation that the grassroots are more powerful than the special interests.

3. Thanks, Eloriel!
My bad.

I was just so enraptured by Kasey and the poem that I forgot to post the link. They introduced Kasey on the blog as Director of Canine Outreach last week, btw. The humor of this campaign is just remarkable!

4. Yeah, the humor, the creativity, the aggressive seizing of opportunities
The willingness to do things in a completely different way (like buying ads in Iowa so early).

I love that they don't take themselves as gravely seriously as, say, some Senator might.

:evilgrin:

6. Can't wait to see how the media handle this one.
They won't be crowing about Cheney's 250,000K...

Instead they will be talking about.
