Please Help Darcy Burner

Darcy is a true progressive running against a sexist douche bag in WA 8th Congressional district.  She is the author of a step-by-step plan to withdraw from Iraq and is a brilliant woman.  She narrowly lost to Dave Reichart (the douche bag) in the last election.  She needs to win this time.

Yesterday morning Darcy's house burnt to the ground.  She and her family got out just a short time before the roof caved in.  Saved by her 5 year old who woke her and her husband up in time to escape.  As a result she will need to take some time off from the campaign trail which will cost her in fundraising.  Please do what you can to contribute if possible and to spread the message.

Darcy's Act Blue page is here.

More info, links to other blog reports on this and a video of Darcy talking to the news media about her ordeal is here.

Please recommend this post if you will to keep the message up.

Thanks.

Gave $100 this morning.

The only sad thing is that I don't get to vote for her. I'm stuck with Jim McDermitt, who is fantastic but in absolutely no danger of losing his seat.
