A note from John Kerry sent on behalf of the DSCC

Newt Gingrich’s economic plan: Make inner city kids go to work, and, as he boasted Monday night, make sure that Mitt Romney pays no taxes. The middle class can fight over the crumbs.

Contrast that with President Obama’s vision: Invest in American jobs. Strengthen our middle class. Pursue policies that work for everyone, not just the very top.

We know all too well what’s coming. Republicans will attack, assail and lie to destroy President Obama and usher in one-party rule. If the thought of President Gingrich leading a GOP Congress scares you beyond belief, then I’m asking for your urgent help.

The DSCC needs $405,000 in grassroots donations by its crucial Jan. 31 FEC deadline. Fall short, and the GOP can make President Obama a one-term president, and the GOP controls the entire Congress.


Don’t wait! Please give $5, $10 or more to the DSCC. We can’t win in November without first hitting this goal on Jan. 31!

Republicans have plenty of cash to do it. Karl Rove is working overtime, collecting checks from every powerful interest in the book to fund his shady attack ads and smear campaigns.

If we come close to matching their money, we will win. If we don’t, we can’t. It’s that simple.

More than 90% of donations to the DSCC come from grassroots supporters – and they have millions of them. Maybe you think your contribution of $5 or $10 isn’t enough to make a difference. You’re wrong. Your donation could be the last little bit needed to push back against attacks on Wisconsin’s Tammy Baldwin, or get out a few more votes for Sen. Sherrod Brown.

Every dollar matters. Every day matters. We’ve got 5 days to raise $405,000, and I need your help to do it.

We have a choice. We can fight for a nation where fundamental fairness guides us, or we can let Republicans continue Robin Hood in reverse – taking from the many to give to the very few.

I know whose side I’m on, and that’s why I’m supporting the DSCC. Please join me. Let’s win one for fairness.

John Kerry
