An ActBlue Day For Virginians (UPDATED)

Ugh. Looks like RK is bringing ActBlue and the sordid world of partisan Internet fundraising into Virginia politics: Time to Act Blue in Virginia! Woe be unto those Democrats who fall out of favor with the almighty Lowell Feld, because he will undoubtedly only let voters insta-donate funds to the candidates he approves of. (Personally, I think every candidate in every party should have access to that kind of fundraising technology.)

UPDATE: Alice commented that ActBlue will support any Democratic candidates, and that seems to be true. However, there was this one little puzzling phrase in ActBlue’s FAQ: “As long as they’re a serious Democratic candidate we’d be happy to post them.” I’d be interested to know how they define a serious candidate. I would hope they’d accept anyone who has filed the proper paperwork to run for an office.
