Inviting fellow Obama supporters to make a split $50 pledge, half to the DCCC and half to the Obama campaign, the day after Hillary concedes.
Let me invite my fellow Obama supporters to make a pledge that ON THE DAY AFTER HILLARY CONCEDES we WILL give another $25.08 to the Obama campaign, and just for good luck and to encourage party unity, $25.08 to the DCCC.
$50,000,000 in pledges on the day after Hillary concedes ought to impress even the DLCers.
And I am sure Van Hollen could find a way to use that other $50,000,000 for those down-ticket races.
Here's what we can do about it. Just click this link and send Van Hollen a pledge/promise that you will contribute $25.08 to the DCCC on the day after Hillary concedes, and another $25.08 to the Obama campaign.
Don't send any emails to the campaign itself, just make sure you include in your letter to Van Hollen that $25.08 is going to the campaign and $25.08 is going to the DCCC, then let the DCCC tell the campaign about it. But don't make the contribution ubntil Hillary concedes. Plain and simple... your .08 will always identify you as one of the pledge signers.
If you want, copy and paste this letter in your email;
"Congressman Van Hollen: I am at this time making a pledge that the day after Hillary Clinton concedes this race, I will contribute $25.08 to the DCCC and $25.08 to the Obama campaign."
Sincerely,_____________________
Mass bribery, you say?
Not hardly. This is public financing at its most powerful. Don't let this discourage you from giving even more to the Obama campaign, but by showing the DCCC just how much benefit they will derive from an Obama candidacy, we might help encourage ore than one SuperD to make a decision sooner thanlater.
And the sooner the better.
Anyone else want to join the pledge list?
