Not one more dime for the DSCC...

That's right, you heard me - not another plugged red cent for the DSCC unless or until our Democratic Senators can collectively prove they are worth our time, our trouble, and our diminishing disposable incomes.

Bush said "jump," and the Democratic Senators said "how high, Sir?" Enough.

1. The DSCC promotes DLC/BlueDog candidates

and works hard to pressure Progressive candidates to drop primary challenges of any DLC/BlueDog candidate.

Any money I give will be to a person or organization I strongly believe supports my views.

2. They'll get my money. We need a larger majority. It's the DCCC that doesn't get any more from me.

There are a LOT of good Senate seats up for grabs coming up...

The larger the majority we have in the Senate, the less we'll have to play these games.

4. But we don't need the DSCC in order to get those seats

We'll just donate directly to our Senatorial candidates and cut out the middleman. Time to starve the beast into submission.

3. This is the only thing that talks--No Money and if we

can find challengers to those voted with GOP. Replace
these DINOs. It may take a few years but we simply
have to get some real representation.

In Politics Section, there is a list of the those
who voted with GOP and more detailed post.
