Kerry donates $1 million to DNC

Our former Presidential candidate Senator John Kerry is donating $1 million to the Democratic National Committee to help our soon-to-be Chairman Howard Dean in building grassroots support for the party at the state level.

Here's an excerpt from an email sent out to supporters:

"Join me with a contribution of your own to show the incoming DNC chair that you want to support organizing in your own community...A new DNC chair will be elected at the end of this week. Let's make sure he has everything he needs to start strong."
This is a good faith effort to unite the Democratic Party and keep us going strong. More Democrats should follow Kerry's example. Though there are those who will not like Howard Dean as Chairman, they need to put aside their greviances for the greater good of the party. We cannot win unless we work together and we will not win if we focus solely on winning federal races.
