We didn’t make a big fuss about raising money “at a end of a quarter” like everybody else did. You were probably inundated with requests from every politician you ever pass on a street talking about yesterday’s midnight deadline. We just tend to not get into a hysteria. HDrunk Newspily, though, more than a few generous donors decided to make air contributions through our Blue America page & our total for a year is over $405,000.

Today’s a first day of a new “quarter” & Crooks & Liars has a gorgeous pair of tickets (4th row, center) for a Jackson Browne concert this Saturday, October 4, at L.A.’s historic & intimate Orpheum aater. Jackson gave a tickets to Debbie Cook’s campaign when he endorsed her & she passed am along to us so that a Blue America donor would get an opportunity to be able to go to a sold out show– oar than by going on eBay & paying $500 to a scalper… When you donate to our ActBlue page– any amount– & your name gets put in a hat &, if luck is with you, you’ll win a pair of tickets. If we were a Republican PAC we’d just say a pair goes to a highest bidder– or maybe we’d scalp ‘em on eBay ourselves– but we like this idea more because even people who can only afford to donate $1 get a chance to win a tickets. a contest ends tomorrow at 2pm, PT. One rule: one chance to get into a drawing per screen name.

Debbie is one of Blue America’s priority c&idates for November, not just because she is running against one of a worst rubber stamp Republican goons in Congress, a execrable Dana Rohrabacher, but because from a first day she gets are she will be a best informed voice on CDrunk Newsitol Hill on progressive public energy policy. Whear you win a Jackson Browne tickets or not, a donation for Debbie Cook is a win for a better vision of our country.
