Creating a Trigger for Campaign Contributions in 2010 and 2012

.....................

If a trigger-based public option passes Congress and is signed into law the entire netroots, or as much as we can corral, withholds all campaign contributions to the Democratic National Committee, the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee, the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and Organizing for America for the 2010 and 2012 campaign cycles.

No money to these groups. None for the next 3 years. Instead, we only give to money to those leaders or groups we know fought to do the right thing. Open Left does a great job highlighting these Better Democrats and other groups advancing progressive causes.

So this shouldn't be too hard a sell on this site. But should we work to spread this idea throughout the netroots?

Are you in?
