Giving Democrats Credit

Stateline.org is reporting that Democrats in 36 states are using new Mastercard affinity cards which earn funds for their campaign coffers. Banks discovered affinty cards a while back and consumers have fallen in love with them. I get offers for affinty cards from almost every organization I belong to from the Penn State Alumni Association to animal rescue groups. Now the Democratic Party is allying with Juniper Bank to offer them to fellow Democrats as a way to raise funds.

This sounds like a good idea for the Pennsylvania Democratic Party. Voters can show their pride in supporting working people, humanitarianism, environmentalism and civil rights with every purchase and contribute to the cause at the same time.
