Dear Nancy,
We are just
75 days away from a historic election where Democrats have the opportunity to take back the White House and win strong Democratic Majorities in Congress.
I've stood in the House chamber to deliver the State of the Union Address. I've looked out over that sea of faces - some friendly, others not - knowing how critical Congressional support for bold ideas and strong policies is for our future.
Believe me, the best thing we could do to help Barack Obama when he is president is to elect more change-oriented Democrats to Congress on November 4th.
You can start your personal role today by contributing to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC)'s Denver to November campaign before their critical FEC reporting deadline August 31st and
if you give today, your gift will be matched 2-to-1 by House Democrats. All eyes will be on fundraising totals after the Democratic Convention ends next week - Democrats have to make a strong showing for these final days from Denver to November.
Contribute $35, $50 or more to our Denver to November campaign and your gift will be matched 2-to-1 by House Democrats. We must never underestimate the commitment of the hard-core Republican operatives who will come after our candidates. Republican attack groups - even one led by people like Tom DeLay, and another advised by Karl Rove - are prepared to spend nearly $250 million to defeat Democrats.
We know they will attack our candidates with everything they've got, so we urgently need your support before the August 31st deadline. There is no time to wait.
Contribute $35, $50 or more to our Denver to November campaign and your gift will be matched 2-to-1 by House Democrats. Thank you again for all of your hard work during this high-stakes election. I am counting on you to help pull us through to victory.
Sincerely,
Bill Clinton
P.S. You and I know we cannot let the Republicans and John McCain succeed at giving this country another Bush third term.
That's why we need your urgent contribution before our FEC reporting deadline August 31st - we must show we have the resources to fight back.
