MOMocrats Swag-O-Rama Raffle

The MOMocrats are doing a raffle to earn money to go to the Democratic National Convention. Take your chances by looking at our fantastic gift bags over at the Help A Mama Swag-o-Rama Site. Just choose the prize packages you want to bid on, put them in your shopping cart using the paypal widget, and check out when you're done. We'll notify the winners on Saturday, August 9. Proceeds go toward helping the MOMocrats pay travel expenses to get to and from the DNC.

I promise I'll stop the begging for the MOMocrats as soon as we get back from the Democratic National Convention.

If you have a blog and want to help us advertise the raffle, just put this code on your sidebar:

I'm in a travel writing contest over at FranceGuide.com and the winner gets a 7 day vacation in Martinique. If you vote, you are entered to win a trip yourself! Please go vote for me at:

My story is called "Stuck Outside Narsaq with the Qarqortoq Blues Again" and last time I checked it was on p.4, but they move them around.

Thanks!
