Unfortunately, the end of the election has not ended the flow of begging emails from the DCCC.
I had to smile at one today, ostensibly from Nancy Pelosi. An excerpt:

See, there’s a reason it would be easy to feel that way — you were defeated. So don’t fight it. Sit back and absorb that for awhile, and give the clamoring for money a brief rest. Please…

2. What Veterans’ event comes exactly one week after the last election day?
