Looking forward to drinking liberally for Jerry and Charlie on Wednesday.

And, yeah, this "beers with bloggers" quarterly concept should be a national event for bloggers/netroots candidates across the country.

If not this Q, maybe next Q?

Thanks blogswarm and the Calitics crew for making this happen... again!

Eden w/ McNerney for Congress

I am going to Women for Obama Conference Call with 100.00 check, on Sunday at the NW IL Dem HQ.  I am donating by the 30th to Dan Seals, (IL-10) running against Mark Kirk (R).  He narrowly lost this seat.  Already signed up for information and to volunteer.  I will work the district for him in 2008.  I will also, donate to Al Franken, online, running for Minnesota Senate seat currently held by Norm Coleman.  My brother and sister are in Minneapolis and are up there working on his campaign.  I used to live in Minnesota and my husband graduated from the University of Minnesota and knew Senator Wellstone.  He was devistated of his death and has a picture of them on his desk.  He, too, has been sending money to Franken.  I have been pretty liberal these past months donating, but now I have to narrow it down.  I was giving to Edwards, but will relinquish.  My husband is supporting him.  So, I am concentrating on Obama, Seals and Franken.  Our other senator here in IL is Durbin, but I don't see or smell any serious competition.  If it does appear, my cc will have to break out for him too.
