UPDATE: Democratic Netroots Effort Raises $20K in 24 Hours in Support of Rep. Chandler


I posted last night about an effort through Kos and ActBlue to push back against critics of Kentucky Rep. Ben Chandler for his support of Sen. Barack Obama's presidential bid.  This morning the drive achieved the goal of $20,000 in 24 hours.

Ben Smith at Politico, who originally reported on the heat Rep. Chandler was taking, also has a post on the netroots effort:

This could send a valuable message to other uncommitted superdelegates.  Kudos to everyone who was able to contribute.

Just posted somewhere else here that you can send a clear message to supers that they will receive support if they endorse Obama. Give whatever you can to Chandler at http://www.actblue.com/page/bluemajority
