I may be the last one…

…on the northwest liberal blogger block to tell you this, but you ought to take a minute to click on over to the DCCC's "Candidate for Change" contest. Darcy Burner's on the ballot, and there's plenty of space in the write in window for Peter Goldmark's name (yep, you can vote for both).

There are, as they say, "valuable prizes" at stake, including...

A fundraising email from Democratic House Leader Nancy Pelosi or DCCC Chairman Rahm Emanuel to our list;

A phone bank run out of the Democratic National Headquarters for their campaign;

The feature spot on our Web site to get their message out, with a link to their campaign contribution page;

An online chat with the DCCC community to exchange ideas on the campaign and the future of our country.

It's the kind of attention that puts campaigns over the top. It's the kind of attention our candidates deserve. Vote early, balloting ends on August 23.
