Dear Readers,

The McCain campaign is bragging that they are out-raising and out-spending us.

By collecting huge checks from Washington lobbyists and special interest PACs, they raised more money than ever before in June. Combined with the Republican National Committee, they now have more than $95 million in cash on hand.

I recorded a short video in my office about what we are up against. Now is the time to step up and make your first donation to help us close the gap.

Please watch the video and make a donation of $25 now:

Together, we have already accomplished so much in this campaign. But we cannot take it for granted.

This grassroots movement won’t just happen on its own. It’s up to you to make it happen.

Thanks,

David
