El Tinklenberg
His Act Blue donations are now approaching $170,000, raised since yesterday.
Democrat El Tinklenberg’s campaign has received an “overwhelming” amount of contributions since his Republican opponent, Rep. Michele Bachmann, told MSNBC’s Chris Matthews that she believed the media should investigate whether members of Congress are “anti-American.”
Tinklenberg’s communications director, Kate Munson, told MnIndy that online support has been strong, and that donations coming through Act Blue — $128,000 currently, coming from more than 3,000 supporters — has been one of many ways the campaign has been accepting funds. She wouldn’t give an estimate for direct donations to Tinklenberg08.com.
“We’ve had an overwhelming amount of online support,” she says. “We’re still counting so it’s impossilbe to give an accurate estimate.” She says the campaign will make an announcement of the figure Monday morning.

Sign the petition.
That's a lot of people in the heartland attending to Obama--I wonder if they're now on Palin's "un-American" shitlist.
McCain is supposed to do a rally sometime this weekend in St. Charles, MO--a conservative city located west of St. Louis. I guess Palin will anoint them pro-American...and lambast St. Louis as just a cesspool of towelheads.
I heard that 75,000 people attended an Obama rally in KC, also.
I had no idea there were so many of us in the midwest!
(Sorry it took me so long to get back--I'm getting ready to go out & canvass now, but I wanted to make sure & respond to you first! Have a great day!)
McShank can kiss our ass. He's a goner unless the rePIGs pull out some huge crime or series of crimes. The greatest joy that I am experiencing these days is to know that I will now live out my natural life with rePIGs eating sheist in the gutter. The pleasure that brings me is beyond words.

Palin didn't need Greek columns. People react to her because they believe she represents what the Greeks established.

*****************
GOP vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin urged a raucous crowd of nearly 20,000 Hoosiers on Friday to keep Indiana a Republican state on Election Day.
What would K Lo do if Palin had 100,000.....her brains would explode!!

Said it's his biggest rally so far in the US.
or stupid
100,000 people. Now that, Mr. McCain is a rally. And I bet not one was calling you a terrorist, or calling for harm to you or Ms. Palin.
For the pass two elections I've been using the following Election Poll tracking and Election Night Projection Web site ad there really good!
Here's the link to there site http://www.electoral-vote.com/
Give it a look... over the next few days and on Nov 4th.
My first reaction? Goddamn! And that line, "It comes down to values--in America do we just simply value wealth, or do we value the work that creates it?"
Excellent!
A bigger-than-average McCain/Palin rally!
http://www.huffingtonpost.com/
Sen. Claire McCaskill was among the many speakers, and made the point that St. Louisans are just as pro-American as those in small town Missouri. She seemed justifiably angry at Palin's rhetoric, and really verbally smacked her for it.
This was my first time ever hearing Obama in person, and let's just say that it was everything I expected and more. Felt like I was part of history!

Nothing means nothing until you count the box office receipts all over the country....
MAKE SURE YOU VOTE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Glad to be apart of it. It was historical!
Is that a mistake?
My fiancee and I hopped on the Metro at 8am, and by the time we got downtown, the line to get to security was 3/4 of a mile long. We got in and had an amazing spot, as close as we could have been without tickets. Even though it meant standing in one spot for 3 hours, it was totally worth it. The most amazing thing was when I turned around shortly before Obama got to the podium and saw a sea of bodies. It was unbelievable.
The real note here is that we were basically standing on top of one another, but there was no hostility. The crowd consisted of every type of human being imaginable, crammed together to the point that you couldn't bend your arms without knocking into someone. But, people handed the stranger in front of them their camera if they could get a better shot. People jostled around trying to make sure everyone had a good view. The only boo came at the mention of Still President Bush and the ungodly havoc he has unleashed on this nation.
Words cannot express my astonishment. To be witness to history, to be a part of a movement so much larger than any one person, any one candidate, any one moment. Having been through the 2004 campaign in my (heretofore) red state left me battered and bruised, but today instilled in me a hope that I thought was long gone.
KUDOS to the Obama staffers and volunteers! They were out in full force...I was approached to volunteer every-literally-ten yards. I urge everyone to thank these people when they call you or come to your door, and to sign up to help wherever you possibly can. I can say, as someone who has run the show from the trenches, that the folks who work tirelessly are the point of the spear, and not a damn thing could be accomplished without their efforts. They are the heart and the soul of any operation, and have the entirety my most humble admiration.
