I would like to mention that Barbara Boxer and her staff are ingenius for getting people to sign up on Sodahead on an e-mail questionaire sent out a month or two ago. By signing up to answer one of the questions regarding important issues that we are concerned about, many of us, including myself, have become participants on SodaHead. I've noticed that a lot of the attack machines (esp. aimed at Democratic presidential contenders) operate at this grass-roots level, including here at SodaHead. By having so many in the progressive movement sign up, Barbara Boxer has put a bunch of us into action, to put out our message, to defend against unjust attacks, and put a strong progressive voice into one of the more popular internet debate/poll sites. This kind of grassroots organization on the internet, especially the kind that gets wide exposure to all kinds of different people, will allow the progressive movement to grow and become a popular movement in this country.

Also, I, as many of us undoubtedly are, am greatly indebted to Barbara Boxer's heroic fight to protect our natural resources and environment. I'm proud she represents us in the Senate!
