northside dfa (chicago)
i am not a real active member of this dfa group, but it is the last one active in chicago. it is a very strong organization, especially when it comes to getting folks down ticket on the ballet, and elected.
posting a couple shots from a photo op in 11/07.
i made political buttons during the bush years. i made on that was a pic of bush, the logos of all the companies that his cabinet worked for when he came into office. the wording was- george bush, brought to you by.... and millionaires everywhere.
so, i later made a button that had howard, surrounded by pennies, nickels and dimes, and computer mice that said- howard dean brought to you by ordinary people.
so, i asked him to sign his button, but snuck one of each in his pocket, telling him he needed them both to get the joke.
earlier this year i was able to meet him again at a dfa fundraiser. i asked him to sign the same button again. we had a chuckle and i had him sign it "hello again".
it is now my double most prized possession.
this is the album. more pics there. http://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10150439127050810.355687.682225809&type=1

You can really tell he got a good chuckle out of those buttons! 
...they have such a reputation 
"i am more of a supporter and donor than an active member"
I think that's true of many of us, including myself.
Happy New Year!
