Can you spare $5 for Martha Coakley's campaign?
Republicans & Teapartiers are matching our fundraising.

4. It's the massive "independent expenditures" that are killing Martha.
And there's no way we citizens can match their expenditures :-(.

6. Great idea.
It nice that people can make a contribution as small as $5. That should help bring the money in.

11. Hmm...
Edited on Wed Jan-13-10 01:09 PM by BolivarianHero
Why would I give money to a glorified health insurance industry lobbyist? I hope she wins because Brown is much worse, but it's not the DSCC's finest moment (In recent years, that would be Franken...).

15. I'm just telling the truth...
Not my fault that Democrats let themselves get hoodwinked by these shysters come primary time.

Comparing Coakley to Brown is like comparing HRC to McCain.

13. All politicians take lobbyist money
Just because the conservatives make an argument doesn't all of a sudden mean it's wrong. It's possible for a Dem to be bought. Plenty are. Anyhow, lobbyists gave her money, it's not a conspiracy nor something new to any politician. Her opponent probably has taken his fair share from lobbyists as well.

Just because it's DU doesn't mean we have to support the Dem. candidate no matter what. (Although, I do support Coakley, I don't like illogical arguments. And yes, I know, because I'm new I must be with the GOP, but just look at the argument.)
