Today I contributed $100 to the Howard Dean campaign. I must say, it’s one of the most positive things I’ve done in a while. I’ve never given any money to any political campaign, ever. But I love the upbeat, strong energy of Dean and his campaign, and it’s something I need right now. Getting rid of George W. Bush should be a high priority for anyone who cares about the future of this country, and I believe strongly that Dean is the guy to do it.

I love the fact that they peg fundraising to match (or exceed) similar efforts on the Republican side. It raises money, raises supporters’ consciousness about the importance of fundraising, and gives the right wing a poke in the eye. All good stuff.

The last six months have been overwhelmingly negative for this country. Let’s do something positive.
