Epatriots

Daily Kos has set up a system with the DNC through which his readers can contribute and Kos gets ¨credit¨ (in the vanity sense, not in any financial sense). I like it - it´s a pretty good idea. The folks behind Dean Meetup (and Congrats to Kos also for getting paid real money to consult for Dean) requested that their members add $.01 to every donation to signal the source - and that did get the attention of the Dean campaign.

I´d like to do something similar once the campaign season heats up. My preference would be to find a winnable (but not safe) House race where a few thousand bucks could really make a difference and adopt a ¨pet candidate¨ for the website. But, that´s a few months off. Until then, go give money to the DNC through Kos and demonstrate the power of his Blogs.
