Do you ever wonder if you're doing enough?
A lot of us spend a lot of time knocking on doors, making calls and donating our hard earned cash to our nominee and local candidates. That's a lot. Most of us are not only hurting from the effects of the Bush economy, but we've already been hit up by the DCCC, the DSCC, a half dozen or so charities, PACs, the Obama campaign and our local Dems. But there's one more cause that needs your attention.
Senator Kerry has told us, more than once. "I know you've done a lot. Now I'm going to ask you to do more."
He's asking.
This time, it's for Teddy and everyone fighting the battle against cancer. An e-mail went out from Senator Kerry this week, asking us to sponsor his ride in the Pan Mass Challenge. If you aren't getting the emails, you can sign up at johnkerry.com, but first, you'll want to sponsor the Senator's Pan-Mass ride, and send some love (and your credit card number) to the Jimmy Fund.
There are a lot of great reasons to donate. Not only is the Senator a wicked fast rider who is sure to do his sponsors proud, but the Pan Mass Challenge is a great cause, and it's a personal one for Senator Kerry. And he's riding for Teddy.

So, give till it hurts, at least a little. You've done a lot. Do more.

I received a thank you in the mail today from Senator Kerry thanking me for my donation. I have to tell you it was a wonderful surprise.
What a thoughtful man.
And, I hope that one day his efforts and thoses of many others finally result in a cure for this horrible desease. God bless Senator Kerry and all those who has suffered through cancer, and family members who has watched a love one suffer and those that fight everyday to find a cure.
