Obama Fundraising Letter for the DSCC

Dear friend,

If I said the sky was blue, these Republicans would say no way.

They said no to fixing health care, regulating Wall Street greed, tax cuts, and even job creation. If this election swings on who's actually fixing things, we'll win.

The problem is that all these special interest groups are going to spend $400 million to scare people and confuse the truth. There's no bold new vision. They just want to tell America what we can't do.

Don't tell me that we can't change history. Don't tell me we can't rescue our economy, win global conflicts, and make America more equal and more free.

Don't tell me we can't. I've seen you do it.

This is a pivotal moment, and we can do it again. Give to the DSCC right now so we can tell the truth and show America why we have to keep the Senate in Democratic hands.

Give to the DSCC today and be a part of our fight to keep control of the Senate. If we can raise $265,941 by midnight tonight, we can answer Karl Rove's lies and attacks. Every dollar you give will be matched, doubling your impact.

If you go online or turn on the news, you'd think Democrats have already lost this election. Now, I'm sure it will be close. Midterms always are, and this year, we already have 15 Senate races within five percentage points.

But the truth is, no one has put these races away. The American people are rightfully leery of giving the keys back to the Republicans after they drove us into the ditch.

And with the powerful grassroots army the Democrats have built over the last few years - built with your help, I might add - I think I like our chances.

So I'm asking you to channel that power today and give to the DSCC, the one organization that's dedicated to defending Democratic senators from Republican attacks and protecting our majority in the Senate. With your help, we can gather the resources we need to tip these tight races in our favor.

Click here to make a donation to the DSCC and help us reach our goal of raising $265,941 by midnight tonight. Every dollar you give will be matched, doubling your impact. You have the power to decide what happens on November 2.

We've worked too hard to get to this point to just sit back and watch it slip away. Some might say we have a tough hill to climb, but it can't be any tougher than the ones we've climbed before. So please, join me and contribute today.

Sincerely,

Barack Obama
