  <blurb>The most important thing we can do is fight for a 60 Seat Majority in the Senate. Please give something to each of these candidates and to the all-important DSCC. 

YOU MAY GIVE A LUMP SUM WHICH WILL BE DISTRIBUTED EVENLY. OR, YOU CAN PICK AND CHOSE THE CANDIDATES YOU WANT TO SUPPORT!</blurb>

      <pageblurb>Elizabeth Dole Is A Horrible Woman. The Worst. Kay Hagan is a brilliant State Senator From North Carolina and right now she&amp;apos;s only losing by 1 point. Thats it folks. 
And just a reminder, Elizabeth Dole thought it would be a good idea to try to name an HIV/AIDS funding bill after Jesse Helms this year. Great Job Elizabeth, Great Job.

      <pageblurb>The DSCC is the campaign committee for all Democratic Senatorial Candidates. Give generously, they have the ability to run independent ads and fund a ground operation. DSCC Chair Chuck Schumer has done a brilliant job of picking fantastic candidates and not wasting money on people who will definitely win. 
Tight Races Only! </pageblurb>

      <pageblurb>Jeff Merkley is in the tightest senate race against Gordon Smith. Smith tries to play himself off as a liberal Senator despite the fact that he&amp;apos;s voted 90 percent of the time with Bush </pageblurb>

      <pageblurb>Colorado is almost blue, please make a contribution to make sure that Colorado has TWO Democratic Senators. Mark Udall is a brilliant legislator and will make an even more brilliant Senator. And he opposed the war and the patriot act from the start.

      <pageblurb>Senator John Sanunu is the most anti-Israel member of the Senate. This is a must win. Governor Shaheen has pulled ahead, but we need to put the nail in the coffin on this one. </pageblurb>
