Being a "fundraiser" isn't enough
Nothing wrong with that, except, he needs to see more than todays "dollar" one political worker stated that Paul" is "still rough around the edges" and he was trying to keep the blog on focus, I thought building support and "chatting" with potential donors was the "focus". Pardon me for asking for help with what I think is a political issue.

Fighting Dems: The Legacy of Paul Hackett
I agree with James Carville when he says that the problem with the Democratic Party is not ideological, but anatomical. Paul Hackett himself proved this point in his special election by having a backbone and being unafraid to tell people what he thought about the issues. The result of this was that people in a traditional Republican district respected Paul enough to vote for him. If Democrats learn nothing else from Paul, it should be that people vote for candidates that they respect and are honest with them. Even though Paul dropped out of the Senate race, by inspiring many others to run for office, he will prove on a national level in November that "Fighting Dems" are the future of the Democratic Party.

Tectonic Shift Taking Place
The war in Iraq is not going as advertised. It is a flawed policy wrapped in illusion. The American public is way ahead of us. The United States and coalition troops have done all they can in Iraq, but it is time for a change in direction. Our military is suffering. The future of our country is at risk. We can not continue on the present course. It is evident that continued military action in Iraq is not in the best interest of the United States of America, the Iraqi people or the Persian Gulf Region.
