I gave up contributing to the Democratic National Committee years ago, right after Howard Dean left. IMO, he was the last chair who understood what needed to be done and every subsequent leader has been woeful. They totally lost the thread when the GOP were organizing to take over statehouses and governors in a lot of states back in 2010 and now are Gerrymandered out of existence in those states. I still get lots of meaningless emails every day but the only one getting money is the Obama/Holder effort that fights for fair elections.

I agree that the update which you received is an example of the useful things which a functional Democratic party ought to be doing. However, I seem to be on every Democratic email list in God's creation. I've been an officer in both the local and state party. I'm also a PhD economist who would have been happy to voice support for IRA. Why the hell didn't I get this mailing? In fairness, you are a nationally prominent public intellectual and I'm a little country professor (retired).
