How low can a Republican go …


Tommy Thompson has hit rock bottom. On Monday, his campaign released a new ad that dishonestly attacks Tammy for voting against a cynical, politically-motivated resolution.
Make no mistake: Tommy is using 9/11 to score political points. But that’s not the worst part.
Tommy has also used 9/11 to score personal profits. He got a government contract to provide health care to first responders after the attacks. He put $3 million into his own pocket. But the first responders didn’t get the care they were promised.

Tommy knows that Tammy has supported nine different 9/11 memorial resolutions — and he knows that the one she voted against was intentionally politicized by Republicans looking to make 9/11 an election-year wedge issue.
But Tommy also knows he’s losing this race. And he’s desperate.
I want you to know two things.
First, we’re not going to let him get away with this. We’ve released a new ad exposing Tommy’s disgraceful behavior — click here to watch it. And the media is onto Tommy — click here to watch Ed Schultz take apart his false claims.

Second, the reason Tommy is so desperate is because he knows that our campaign is stronger — and that’s thanks to you. You’ve stood by Tammy through $16 million in special interest attacks, and I thank you for standing by her again in the face of this latest vile smear from Tommy Thompson himself.
We’re going to win this race.

Final push for NY-09 …Rep. Joe Crowley


House Republicans are investing heavily in an upcoming special election in New York in the hopes of electing another radical right-wing member to their caucus. We cannot afford to let this happen.

Republicans are trying to wrest NY-09 away from Democrats with smears and misleading attacks. Democratic candidate David Weprin is spreading his message that everyday Americans, families and seniors, not millionaires and Big Oil, should come first.

Meanwhile, his opponent is a radical right-winger ready to fight alongside John Boehner and the tea party. He has promised to push for drastic budget cuts and is even on record as rejecting the Republican’s budget and plan to end Medicare because it did not go far enough.

 The election is just one week from today. We must immediately raise $25,000 in rapid response funds to help David fight Republican attacks in these final days.

David’s opponent may have his deep-pocketed right-wing supporters to help him — and national Republicans ready to swoop in — during the final push before the election, but we are depending on grassroots supporters like you.

Your generous donation will help David with get out the vote efforts and to spread his message about the need to protect Medicare and Social Security. Even just a small gift today could go a long way.

Thank you,

Congressman Joe Crowley
