I've given to Dennis Kucinich, John Edwards, and Wesley Clark.

First, I gave to Kucinich because I agree with him on many issues.

Then I gave to Edwards on the theory that he's the most electable in the general because he could unite the left and right wings of the Democratic Party.

Then I gave to Clark, because I consider him more electable than Dean in the general.

1. Why don't you now give to Dean - he is likely the strongest

contender of them all.

When the rightwing calls Dean "very liberal," a lot of people will believe it.

But if the rightwing calls four-star General Wesley Clark "very liberal," people won't believe it.

6. Dean's different 'cause there's no deadline to give.

Since he decided not to accept FEC matching funds.

3. Good Point - Many Multiple Donations

I have given to Edwards, Clark and Lieberman (as a favor to one who gave money at my suggestion to Clark).

Interesting to note that many here have supported multiple candidates.

Also interesting to see the first post was asking you to donate to Dean.

4. This is the best time to give to candidates using matching funds.

'Cause the FEC will match what we give.
Double our donation dollars!

I gave to Clark and Kucinich today for that very reason.

Thanks Eric J.

5. Given money to Clark and Edwards

Haven't donated my own money..but along with my dad, I've donated to Wesley Clark and John Edwards. Clark, because he's my first choice. And, Edwards is my 2nd choice..and I wanted a copy of his campaign DVD and his book..giving out free stuff as a fundraising tactic really does work. :)

7. Have given to Edwards and Clark.

Edwards is my favorite candidate because of his populist message - he simply gets it. But, it's time to coalesce behind the candidate most able to beat Bush in the current war and terror climate, and that is Clark. (Could have been Kerry, but the press has killed and buried his campaign).

8. I've given to Edwards. I plan on giving to Kucinich and Shaprton and

maybe $10 to Clark. But I'm definitely focussing on Edwards.

9. Edwards

I've made contributions to Edwards campaign and I'm also writing letters to Iowans asking them to support him.

10. Sharpton & Kerry

I gave to Sharpton when he said "impeachment" on Fox News, and I think after Slap that Donkey too. And Kerry, although not as much as I wish I could. My kids aren't too keen on me sending campaign money and eating mac 'n cheese instead.
