The attacks on President Obama started              before he even took office, and they've only gotten worse.              Republicans, their ideas discredited, their policies responsible for              the incredible challenges we face, have stepped up their attacks,              spreading misinformation about policy proposals, and even              criticizing the President's date with his wife.
We can't              afford to let up at all. It's tough, hard fighting in Congress to              make progress on getting new jobs, real reform of our health care              system, and a new energy economy, and we need everyone to know that              Democrats are not going to let up until we get the job              done.
I've seen first hand how the far right reacts when they              see their failed policies challenged. Rush Limbaugh calls for              failure, and Republican House leaders back him up. When their              attacks start flying, we need to hit them hard.              
June              30th marks a critical FEC deadline where both Republicans and              Democrats must report how much money they have in the bank. The              political pundits, media and the GOP will use these totals as a              referendum on support for President Obama, and they've already              started running ridiculous stories about a GOP "comeback." We need              your help to raise 
$1 million before June 30th to show the              world how committed we are to standing with President Obama and              against those who are rooting for him - and America - to fail.              
Make your voice heard:              Contribute $50, $75 or more by Midnight on June 30th. Congressional              Democrats will match every dollar you give with two of their own.*              From our economic recovery, to health care reform,              to meeting the climate crisis, to restoring our moral leadership in              the world, there is far too much at stake. The amount we raise will              be used to judge how committed we are to standing with President              Obama and his agenda for change, or whether these Republican attacks              are actually starting to work.
That's why it's so critical              that we make a strong show of support for President Obama before              June 30th. 
Contribute $50, $75 or              more by Midnight on June 30th. Congressional Democrats will match              every dollar you give with two of their own to show the world how              strongly we support President Obama.* The power to              stand strong against these attacks is in your hands. 
Please              help us before Midnight on June 30th. 
Thanks.              
Senator John Kerry 
P.S. If there was ever a doubt              that the far right intends to go after President Obama with the same              dishonorable attacks they used on me, just listen to the likes of              Rush Limbaugh and Newt Gingrich rooting for our President to fail.              
Contribute by Midnight on              June 30th to help us fight back on behalf of President Obama.              Speaker Pelosi and House Democrats will match every dollar you give              with two of their own.*
