Where My Mouth Is Carl Manaster manaster@pobox.com I&#39;m putting my money where my mouth is - I&#39;m supporting Democrats, particularly those who share my liberal values. I want to see a much stronger Democratic majority in the House, and until we get publically funded elections, giving money to good Democrats is one of the best ways to bring that about. I&#39;m choosing candidates who are not shoo-ins, but who have a chance of winning - this is where my limited donations can make the most difference. Please help this country by making a contribution to one or more of these fine candidates today. Thank you! --Carl Manaster manaster@pobox.com public true 5047.65 103 Debbie Cook false CA-46 debbie cook 4800.00 201122.87 2682 http://www.debbiecookforcongress.com/ https://secure.actblue.com/contribute/entity/18872 20.00 1 Debbie is a very serious candidate who can defeat ten-term incumbent Dana Rorhbacher.

I&apos;m supporting him because I&apos;m disappointed with Representative Davis - particularly on the issue of impeachment - and I think Mike will do a better job. He won&apos;t be beholden to defense contractors, and I know he&apos;ll vote his conscience. He has a tough race ahead of him, and I&apos;m happy to help him try to win it.

MD-04 is a strongly Democratic district; it deserves a stronger Democrat representing it. Donna Edwards is that stronger Democrat; please help her win. Update: Donna won! 60% to 35%. Jerry W.

She&apos;s got endorsements across the Colorado Democratic spectrum. Betsy is running against Marilyn Musgrave, who is on Karl Rove&apos;s &quot;priority defense&quot; list - this district is going to get a lot of money from the opposition. It&apos;s up to us to see that Betsy has funds to answer that, so she can win this district. Please help.

He&apos;s a good, solid Dem in a slightly red district; between the name recognition and credibility he built up in 2006 and increasingly Democratic sentiment, I think he&apos;ll take it. He&apos;s certainly got my help and I hope he&apos;ll get yours, too.
