You probably have heard that Tommywonk has been selected as the Delaware representative to the Democratic National Convention in Denver as a member of the blogging corps. We are very happy for him. Really.
What you may not know, is that along with this honor, comes a high price tag. Tom must pay his own way to Denver. Sure, he’ll be able to swipe a few donuts from the catered events that he can sneak into, but it will still be a significant financial hit. Not that I priced going out there if DelawareLiberal were selected, but I’m guessing Tom will be out over a grand for the week.
We here at DelawareLiberal are big fans of Tommywonk. He thinks, so we don’t have to. So, we are holding a fundraiser for Tom. The event will be held at the next Drinking Liberally at Catherine Rooney’s on July 31st at 7:30. At that time, we will send Tom off with a bang.
The event will be the election of Delaware’s Hottest Blogger by ballot. Since we are not public officials, we will be electing the Hottest Blogger with money. Each vote will be written on a 5, 10 or 20 dollar bill and each $5 counts as a vote. So a $20 bill gets you 4 votes. All proceeds will go to Tom to help pay for this once in a lifetime opportunity.
Unlike Delaware election law, you may write in any blogger name that you want to vote for, without regard for the favorites (Donviti and I). Did I mention that all proceeds go to Tom?
So mark your calendar for the evening of July 31st to attend Drinking Liberally, spend time with fellow liberals and crashing libertarians (I’m looking at you TPN), and support the wonderful cause of sending Tom Noyes to Denver. And for $5 you can either inflate Donviti’s ego, or crush it.
