Congratulations! We hit our 50k goal on ActBlue. I’ve upped the goal to 75k!
*** Update ***
Well, I updated it, but the code is still showing 50k. I’m gonna go out on a limb and blame Rahm.

You can’t blame Rahm. We are finally rid of him. Good on Google for green wind farms!

Rahm is gone.
Burn the Witch! Burn the Witch! Burn the Witch!

Moving the goalposts? That’s kinda Republican, isn’t it?
Comrade Mary
Hey, blaming Rahm worked!

It’s showing 75k now. I think updates just take a few minutes to pass through. Which leads us to…
AWWWWW, man, more homework?!

@gnomedad: FTW.
Gave this a.m.
Trying to shake the sense of impending, inevitable doom.
Throwing money at John’s thermometer helps for a short while…

50 grand is quite impressive balloon juicers. Bravo!! My greedy landlord gets all my extra cash these days. Down with The Man.

I try to think of it as the storm before the earthquake, no pain, no gain. That funky bird can’t rise from peaches and cream.

Hey, Eric Erickson endorsed Tom Tancredo for governor today and then on Twitter called Obama’s call for the revelation of US Chamber of Commerce donors the same thing as asking to see Obama’s birth certificate! No rest for the wicked, indeed!
Suck It Up!
Like it matters if Rahm is gone.

Keep going. A fool and his money are soon parted.

Christ, that gets funnier the more it gets beat half to fucking death.

@Koz: That’s a little off topic, but hey, I like pecan pie too!

A dance of congratulations to all the BJ community:
[shuffle, shuffle] We did it! We did it! [shuffle, shuffle] We did it! We did it! [shuffle, shuffle] We did it! We did it!

@Joseph Nobles: Am I to assume that the Chamber will release their donor file?
The President has shown his Birth Certificate.

O/T: Can someone at BJ give me some advice on voting? I’ve got an absentee ballot as I live abroad (originally from NY). When I look at the ballot I see Schumer and Gillibrand listed as the Dem candidates, but also as the Independence Party and Working Families Party candidates. Does it help either of these parties to vote for Schumer and Gillibrand by ticking those parties’ boxes instead of the Dems? Or does it detract from the total Dem votes? Sorry if this is a dumb question, but civics was never a strong subject for me. (And the fact that I had to take a civics class will also probably give my age away …)

@losingtheplot: It can help WFP (or the independence party) in 2 ways. a)Vote totals are broken down by party, so NY candidates can see where their support is and b)parties in NY have to get a certain number of votes (50K I think) to show up the next time on the ballot.

@Ron: Thanks for that Ron!

You must have known my old sales manager. =)
“Good going, BFO! That last big sale put you over your quota for Q2, so I’m upping it for Q3! Now get your feet off the desk and get your ass on the road, you got targets to hit.”
Truly, no rest for the wicked.

Way to piss your money away.
Have a nice day this November 2nd!
