a message from Vice Presient Biden

But we can’t let up now.

There are campaign offices out there that need to add extra phone lines because they’re packed with volunteers ready to make calls. There are volunteers ready to go canvass, but they need flyers to go door to door. There are kids on college campuses working to get their classmates to vote, and they need our help, too.

I don’t want to let any of them down — not now, not when we’re so close.

So I need you to join another supporter and commit to this work, together.

Please donate $3 or more today:

Thanks for all you do,

Joe Biden
Midnight tomorrow is the deadline for getting last-minute urgent funds into our final week’s media ad buy.

We just got new polls that show several challengers surging in these final 8 days and we continue to see our members with narrow leads in dozens of races nationwide. Urgent additions must be made to our ad buy to put us over the top — but we are still coming up short on the funds.

We are literally just $77K away from President Obama and Joe Biden‘s grassroots goal — we can get there tonight in time for tomorrow’s one week out ad buy, but only if you can give right now. I have several House Democrats lined up to match your gifts 2-to-1 tonight. Please give right now to our final week’s ad buy.

It all comes down to these final 8 days — it’s now or never and I know we can do this. Don’t let Sarah Palin and her tea party express buy their way into Congress with deceptive ads. Please contribute $5, $10 or more right now so we can cross the finish line to victory together.

DCCC Executive Director

————————————————————————————

Friend —

The Republicans are putting everything they’ve got into these 8 final days before Election Day. The only question is will we do the same?

They are trying to overwhelm us with misleading attack ads funded by the very same special interests that would hold enormous sway if Republicans control Congress.

Let me tell you something. I’ve been around campaigns for a long time and I have never seen a midterm election with this many races in play. That’s why my friends at the DCCC have a strategy in place to secure victory in these final days. But they need your help to fund it by midnight tomorrow.

Every dollar you give could be the difference between victory and defeat for another House Democrat.

Help the DCCC raise $250,000 more before the One Week Out deadline Midnight Tomorrow to fund Rapid Response ads and support their state-of-the-art voter contact efforts for the final push before Election Day. Contribute today and your gift will be matched 2-to-1 by generous House Democrats.

We’ve seen this kind of politics from the Republicans before. They’re coming at us with this final blitz of attack ads on the simple calculation that we won’t have the wherewithal to fight back.

Your support will help our Democratic champions in the House set the record straight against these kinds of attacks in these final days, when it matters the most.

In an election this important, we cannot have a single regret, thinking we could’ve worked harder in these final days.

With victory so close at hand, now is the time to move forward with everything we’ve got.

Joe Biden

P.S. Every dollar you give could be the difference between victory and defeat for another House Democrat. Help the DCCC raise $250,000 before the One Week Out deadline Midnight Tomorrow to fund their efforts for the final push before Election Day.

Just got off the phone… a message from James Carville

10/28/2010 Nativegrl77

I just got off the phone getting an update from Democratic Headquarters about how things are looking out there.

They told me early voting is going better than expected in several states and that the poll numbers are tight but showing us up in dozens of toss-ups. Then they said — they need cash.

We’re now just hours away from our last shot to wire money to our campaigns for their get-out-the-vote blitz this weekend.

We can’t leave any votes on the table because a campaign doesn’t have the cash to rent a van or pay for gas to get folks to the polls. The DCCC must have $28,949 more in the bank by the 5pm wire deadline today to get enough Democrats to the polls in races where Democrats are ahead, but just barely.

Contribute $5, $10 or more by the 5pm wire deadline today to support this weekend’s make-or-break voter turnout activity in districts where Democrats are on the cusp of victory.

We’re talking about literally keeping the lights on in campaign headquarters out there. They want to support even more Democrats running against Republican extremists but they can’t unless they get money in the door by the 5pm wire deadline.

You know these extreme tea party nut cases that Sarah Palin is trying to put in Congress aren’t going down without a fight. Neither can we.

After this election is over, what will you tell your kids and your grandkids that you did to keep Sarah Palin’s favorite extremists out of Congress?

Contribute before 5pm today.

A major announcement …

10/28/2010 Nativegrl77

Ann Kuster and 95 Dems -- Net Neutrality protectors

Hi! This is Ann McLane Kuster, Democratic candidate for Congress in New Hampshire. I have two exciting pieces of news to report.

First, RealClearPolitics just upgraded our race from “toss up” to “leans Democrat” — thanks to the strong people-powered campaign we’re running, in which so many PCCC members have played a role.

Second, I’m proud to announce that 95 Democratic candidates are uniting to protect the biggest driver of people power in our democracy: the Internet. We’re promising to protect Net Neutrality — the First Amendment of the Internet — from recent attacks by big corporations.

The media are already reporting on this news today. Can you show everyone that Internet freedom is important to voters by being a “citizen signer” of our joint Net Neutrality statement? Click here to see it and sign.

(Please also donate to help pro-Net Neutrality candidates win next week. Chip in $3 here.)

Let me tell you how protecting Net Neutrality affects voters and jobs here in New Hampshire.

Phone and cable companies want to put tollbooths on the Internet — forcing businesses, organizations, and individuals to pay extra for their websites to open quickly on people’s computers.

Big corporations like Exxon Mobil could afford this cost. But small businesses, economic innovators, independent media, and grassroots groups could not. Losing Net Neutrality would stifle free speech, innovation, and jobs.

Especially in the “Live Free or Die” state, hurting Internet freedom by putting new tollbooths on the Internet is a non-starter. And across the nation, Democratic candidates agree.

Please show everyone that voters support pro-Net Neutrality candidates by being a “citizen signer” of our joint statement? Click here to see it and sign.

(And please donate $3 to help pro-Net Neutrality candidates win.)

Thanks so much — especially to the thousands of PCCC members who have used the Internet to make small-dollar donations to my campaign and make calls reminding people to vote.

Together, we’ll win next Tuesday, and fight together in the future.
