Obama Fundraising Through PoliticalGroove

I have setup a fundraising page at Barack Obama's site here Barack Obama : : Change We Can Believe In

I have the goal set for $1000. If you can give anything towards our nominee that would be great, feel free to bump this post if you do and take credit for it!

Please keep this thread on the topic of donating only.

I would be happy and proud to set up my (very meager) monthly GE election donations via the PG group!

I can't see how to do that though.

Also---Why not form a PG for Obama group that you administrate over there. About 20 of us have put in a lot of work already (via our group here) but we could use access to a lot of their services there as a group. AND we would love to have one of our own with access to their group admin meetings----they are how things get bumped up into the campaign.

Another thing that would be of use----if you wouldn't mind----would be a McCain research forum. Were people can post and discuss what we are learning about the creepy old man.

Just some thoughts.

PM me with how to do the ongoing commitment under the PG name would you please!

Hey---I made my one time donation (can't figure out the ongoing) but I don't see it registering on the thermometer.

If you don't get the email---let me know!

Also can't get Political groove to come up as a group I can join.

Let me know if it should be there.

If I give $1000, would I get an invite to the Inaugural Ball?

Nope!

But cool thing is that depending on where you are, your Obama group may have it's own inaugural ball.

Okay, I have created a group for PoliticalGroove and it's awaiting approval (glad to see them doing that) once it's setup I will let you guys know. I am not sure that we can put our fundraising thingy into that group or not but we'll see once I get to see it.

RK, I will match your donation as soon as I get home and get it approved by the wife.

When I made my first donation through Obama website another
donor matched my donation. I was notified immediately that
she would contact me and I did receive email from my matching donor.

Didn't happen the next three times I donated.

It is very hard to communicate with the Obama campaign, but you
might ask about matching funds.

Yep you can! Or at least you can have one there also.

When we have a group there would you mind if I invite a few friends here? Some REALLY REALLY great women Harper and I met from the Oregon Groups---but I was hesitant to just start handing out your info.
