I am afraid to donate to Kucinich
It seems like any time I donate to anyone or any cause it is the kiss of death. I guess my views are just too damn Liberal. I want Kucinich to win very badly, although I will be content with any of the Democratic candidates, Kucinich is closest to my ideology. I made a vow to myself I would not donate to anyone this time around until I see some actual attempts to hold the GOP accountable. I see the effort from Kucinich but I am afraid if I give money the same thing will happen as it always seems to. I feel I am a jinx but still want to help..

1. I know what you mean...
it seems that my support of any candidate is the kiss of death for them...my candidate has NEVER won the Democratic Presidential primary in my 25+ years of voting...;)

2. Oh Toots, you're not a jinx, you're like I am
You believe in the former greatness of this country, want to that returned, and are more than willing to champion lost causes, so long as they're just, time and again. Don't give in to despair and cynicism. Go ahead and donate to Kucinich, he needs the money, he's on a roll, and more and more people are joining you and you're thinking.

4. It's not you.
If you are donating to those who stand up for us, they aren't winning because the power establishment doesn't want them to. Not because of your donation.

Put your money and votes where you believe they belong, and to hell with the establishment that doesn't like it.

5. DK is my choice
too. Donate, the problem is not that you are jinx it is because you are liberal. Very few of us ever get to see our candidate win. :(

Stand for what is right.

6. Toots don't worry..
give me the money and I will send it on to Dennis for you! :) Actually I have had the same feelings at times but I have donated to Dennis in hopes that I can break the cycle. Dennis is the last hope for me and I will send him as much money as I can. From all I can tell, money is the thing that will make this happen for him. Peace, Kim
