Props to blueinks for waking up in the wee hours of the morning to start the Donor Bomb off.
WE ARE AT 411,142 GOING FOR 415,010 DONORS TONIGHT! This is awesome. I just got home from the Predators/Red Wings game here in Nashville. I LOVE the energy!
If you are joining us from the previous diary PLEASE UNRECOMMEND THAT ONE AND REC THIS ONE.
What is a Donor Bomb you ask? Well it's like a Money Bomb (which was awesome fun by the way) only we measure in Donors. Everyone counts the same, and the goal is to try and attract new donors into the fold.
Join us for details after the jumparoo . . .
From now until 12 AM PST we are dropping a Donor Bomb for Abe Lincoln's Birthday. We are asking for $5.01 as Honest Abe appears on both the 5-spot and the penny. For those of that can give more, consider multiples, $10.02, $50.10, $100.20, etc. Here are some links at which folks can donate. If you have a personal fundraising deal going feel free to add it in the comments.

This donor drive is in line with the campaign's goal of 500,000 unique donors by Mar 4th as chronicled in this diary by kubla000.
Currently the count is at 408,121 and can be found here.
I think that it is important to highlight to new potential donors and previous donors that every donation helps and is appreciated. $5.01 is great and it shows their support of the campaign as much as a maxed out donor's. This is a big, inclusive tent we are raising here.
As you are able to get people to donate for this Donor Bomb please add comments and encouragement to keep it going.
And please recommend this if you like the idea so that we can try and make this as visible as possible.
Lincolns for Obama, because it's not all about the Benjamins.
