George W. Bush is such a recruiter for Democratic victory. He’s coming to Miami today to raise money for his rubber-stamp party, and this inspires the blogosphere to start opening their wallets for two of our superb congressional candidates, Annette Taddeo in FL-18 and Joe Garcia in FL-25.
Here’s the post on DailyKos, by Kos himself, Markos Moulitsas Zuniga, with its special link to the ActBlue donation site.
These two fine candidates are no strangers to Markos, as they attended the Netroots Nation convention in Austin back in mid-July and were repeated stars of the national progressive crowd there.
If you’ve been waiting for an excuse to donate again — surely you’ve donated repeatedly to them, right? — this is a great moment to reply to W and help Garcia and Taddeo.
Last night I was at an Obama fundraiser on Miami Beach, where one of the guests said that Barack Obama should say at his inauguration in January that he owes his election to one man. Who, I wondered? “President Bush,” was the answer.
I dropped in at ActBlue and gave each of them $50.
