Organizations http://dleaders.blogdrive.com/archive/87.html Tue, 24 Jan 2006 21:07:05 GMT Nothing posted here since December 2004? Does anyone still checkin here? Does Howard Dean read this? I'm sure many "Dean Leaders" would like to give the good doctor a bit of advice from time to time in his curent role as DNC chair. Seems like this would be a good place to do that if we could get him in the loop. So, is anybody out there? http://dleaders.blogdrive.com/comments?id=87 http://dleaders.blogdrive.com/archive/86.html Sun, 19 Dec 2004 14:31:16 GMT From the DFA Day in the Life: Chris Warshaw thread I still have some holiday preparations (lots, actually) to work on today, but I wanted to repost something from a couple nights ago, because I haven't yet seen it addressed. Once upon a time I would have really appreciated a post about "what it's like at HQ", but since we are still struggling with this disconnect, it just doesn't have the same effect... Click my name for the thread "Ohio Urged to Veto Bill". Some highlight's I'd like to draw to your attention: What *is* this obsession with Ohio all of a sudden? Posted by Free Spirit...

It was meant to be posted in my new blog, Ohio Counts. Suppose this is as good a time as any to tell you about my new blog. ;-) This is from a Daily Kos diary by buckeye prof. It refers to an article in the Columbus Dispatch entitled More Voting Questions Raised. For anyone unfamiliar with the Dispatch, it is a site that requires registration, and it is not free registration like the New York Times and others. Registration to read articles online is $4.95 a month if you are not a subscriber to the...

So take a look at the ideas over there, and post your own thoughts here. W is for Women because... ...because there's nothing we love more than a man who won't admit when he's wrong! (My husband just made this into a bumper sticker, by the way.) I've been thinking about the whole "nice, regular guy" thing that Bush supposedly has going for him, and how to counter it. Thinking back to the "security mom" theme, and how, it would feel anything but secure to...

It helped to aggregate all the various resources and groups -- organize them -- and put them all on one page for easy understanding of which resources were available at various stages of involvement.. from "I know nothing about Dean; tell me about him" --> "That sounds good; I'd like to volunteer. Where do I start?" --> "Now that I'm helping, can we have one place where all our day-to-day tools and resources can be accessed?" That's how DeanPort was designed -- and it worked, and...

Here are the words to the title track. Lest any of us forget... DEJA VU (ALL OVER AGAIN) Did you hear 'em talkin' 'bout it on the radio Did you try to read the writing on the wall Did that voice inside you say I've heard it all before It's like DEJA VU all over again Day by day I hear the voices rising Started with a whisper like it did before Day by day we count the dead and dying Ship the bodies home while the networks all keep score Did you hear 'em talkin' 'bout it on...

I was just talking to my mom on the phone, and she was reading something to me about an AARP RV tour thing (that she and my dad won't be attending). It involved a chance to learn about the candidates, and you could have your picture taken with a life-size cardboard cutout of a candidate. Mom was wondering, I guess, if Demetrius had anything to do with creating one of those. Now Demetrius is working on another attempt to create a Flat John Kerry. I ventured back to the Kerry-Edwards site to try to find good...

I've tried every link to get there and it's gone. I tried going in through DeanLeaders, no go. I've tried my link for DeanPix and DeanPhotos - no go. I want to see the quilt Ann did for Dean! Anyone know how to get there from here? Thanks, Sally in SF http://dleaders.blogdrive.com/comments?id=80 http://dleaders.blogdrive.com/archive/79.html Thu, 05 Aug 2004 16:42:55 GMT Continuing a much needed discussion which started at Blog for America... And since it seems that Tara is reading the blog, FWIW it would be helpful to have a blog entry with a link to Dean's article of the week. I never remember which week he's published and don't always check. Posted by Corinne Marasco at August 5, 2004 11:05 AM I suspect they can't link to Dean's columns. At one point someone said they had to stay at arm's length from anything Dean was paid to do, because of the financing rules. Posted by karen anne at August 5, 2004 11:26 AM Rather than guess,...

Right now Kimmy's sister is in the hospital in Dallas and is very ill. She and Frankie have both been posting updates in the Blog for America comments, and I have collected most of them here for anyone who wanted to know what is going on but didn't want to sift through days of threads. The doctors have said that Christy has sepsis, but have been unable to diagnose the cause, and are only able to treat the... (more)
