National politics has become so competitive that Democrats and Republicans are constantly appealing to donors for money to do battle.

The latest, in an e-mail from the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, seeks cash so Democrats can respond to any repeat of the town-hall attacks on President Obama's healthcare reform plan that happened during the August recess.

Democrats, in return, offer some advice to get through Thanksgiving:
