Fwd: "Once you vote me in, I get great benefits."

[Don Dwiggins]

Here's a campaign that might be worth contributing to, for the chutzpah value if nothing else. :-)

Honest Gil is headed to Kentucky!

We hit our first crowdfunding goal in just 5 days. That means Gil Fulbright will be campaigning against Mitch McConnell and Alison Lundergan Grimes  in the most closely watched election of 2014. He'll be there to make corruption the #1 issue.

If you’re one of the 500+ people who pitched in to make this happen, we can’t thank you enough!  Now, we’ve set our sights higher, including putting Gil on TV. If everyone who donated got just two more people to pitch in $10, we’d hit our next goal today.

Watch and share Gil’s Honest TV ad on healthcare costs to give your friends a taste of what this campaign will look like:

It takes bold ideas to keep corruption in the headlines, and Honest Gil is already having an impact. Just this morning, we were featured in Fast Company(1). Now, let’s put him on TV and really shake things up during the most expensive Senate race of all time.

I can’t tell you how excited I am about the potential of this campaign. Thank you for making it happen.
