Interning With the Jeff Seemann Campaign...
Edited on Wed May-26-04 11:31 PM by slinkerwink
I'm now working as an intern on the Jeff Seemann For Congress campaign, and many of you know Jeff as AWD from here. We're looking at accomplishing several goals, the first of which is fundraising, media exposure, running ads, and creating a formidable organization to unseat Ralph Regula, our Republican opponent.

Ralph Regula appeared at the Timken plant with George Bush last year, promising the stability of jobs to workers at the Timken plant. As a result of Bush's irresponsible economic policies which Regula also follows, over 1,000 people are being laid off from the Timken plant. The loss of manufacturing jobs as a result of outsourcing has alienated many people from the Bush campaign in Ohio. We have an extremely good chance of picking those votes up.

We've got a very committed team of young interns working for Jeff Seemann, and he will also be at the "Take Back America" conference next week in D.C. if any of you might happen to be there. What we need the most right now is fundraising, and we would greatly appreciate it if you would donate money, anywhere from the amount of ten bucks to $2,000 if you're so inclined.

In helping take back the House one seat at a time, we are helping advance the goals of the Democratic party. Once again, thank you very much for reading this, and we look forward to hearing from you in the future.

Seriously, slink, I could chat with you all day, you Rarest Combination of Intelligence, Compassion, Raised Consciousness, and Beauty!

(No, I'm not hitting on you, I'll save that for the Magic Rat...unfortunately I'm old enough to be your...older brother)

But you have many adoring fans of all ages and genders at DU, slinkerwink. Surely you must know that.

:loveya:

17. I saw Jeff yesterday in a very good film titled "Liberty Bound"
that was screened at the International Citizens' Inquiry into 9/11 in Toronto.

Good luck to him, and you!

21. I'm with Jeff now at the intern house
He's totally excited to hear that you saw "Liberty Bound." That documentary was filmed last year in June, and the director according to Jeff has been putting herself through hell to get this movie distrubuted. Jeff's very proud that you saw that movie because it was a testament to what happened that day.

Jeff has asked me to ask you what you thought of the film, and he'll tell your thoughts to the director of the film.

28. Why isn't Jeff one of the "Dean Dozen"?!
I've gotten two "Dean Dozen" lists from Democracy for America so far, and no Jeff on either one of 'em! :(

C'mon. He's from the Democratic wing of the Democratic Party for sure! Does DfA think Regula is some kind of unbeatable Superman or something??

33. No Dean encourages people to work on races that seem difficult
He is not a fan of only running easy races.
I think Jeff just got his application in later than some of the other 400 people running as grassroots candidates. I am sure he will appear on an upcoming list.
