Update: My Submission to the Hillary Blog
No word from them, yet. I wonder what the heck they're waiting for? Time to get over the concept and get on with the weblog. There's no time like the present in blogging, those links are hot and you count their relevence in hours not days.
Don't let the shabby digs fool you, I am a genuine Grandpa bear, rocker, robe and slippers, an Ur blogger, the real thing, I know the in-jokes and the blog pitfalls...I won't steer you nubies wrong. I do this solely as a hobby (this blog is not for sale), and a political duty in the service of this aspiring toward fully informed generation. When election time rolls around, you'll be on your own way.
Hoping to speed up the process over there, I mistakenly signed up as a volunteer blogger and boom, they sent me a link to their fundraising site. Now, I don't really want to do that. Glug, I'd rather drink poisoned cafe au lait than give a red cent to a politican. It's immoral. I don't even tip the Letter Carrier because the first time I did, they would swoop down upon that poor prole and separate that person from their job faster than you can say NALC. I would never forgive myself.
That said, here is my Hillraiser Link. You can contribute there, but I wouldn't. I have serious doubts about the protected nature of speech when it comes in the form of a cash contribution to a public office seeker. I also think that dollar for dollar, that sort of thing dilutes the power of everyones vote. Give each candidate the equivilant of a years Social Security benefit, and let them run their campaigns on that, and no more...IMHO, anyhow.

Sorry. May I hope to launch an anvil.
