Breaking News: GOP Attack Ad Buys Reach New High
DCCC Executive Director just sent this urgent message to DCCC supporters:
Friend --
Breaking news: Since the historic health care vote, outside Republican special interest groups have spent nearly $2.4 million directly attacking Democrats who voted "yes" on health care.
They have made it clear - they will say or do whatever it takes no matter the cost.
I won't let their special interest friends stop us from creating the change our country needs. This year already, opponents of health care reform led by the U.S. Chamber of Commerce have spent $60 MILLION on attack ads.
Rumor is that Republicans are going to expand their advertising buys for Thanksgiving week when Democrats will be home in their districts. I need your urgent help to reach our goal of raising $50,000 more for our Emergency Health Care Rapid Response network by midnight tomorrow. And, if you give now, you will be automatically entered to win dinner with Al Gore.
Please contribute $5, $10 or more by MIDNIGHT TOMORROW and you will be automatically entered to win a free trip to Los Angeles to have dinner with Speaker Pelosi and Al Gore.
That's right - you can help us with rapid response protecting our Democrats who voted YES on health care and are under attack by GOP extremists - and you can even have a chance to meet Speaker Pelosi and Al Gore at a dinner December 3rd (ticket, flight and hotel included).
There has never been a more critical time for grassroots Democrats like you to stand with Congressional Democrats as we move America forward. The Republicans have no plan for fixing America's broken health care system. Their only goal is taking back control of the House next year. I need your grassroots support to help Democrats stand up to their dishonest attacks.
Please contribute MIDNIGHT TOMORROW and you could join me and Vice President Gore for dinner.
Thank you,
Jon Vogel
DCCC Executive Director
P.S. Together we are bringing real change to Washington. Please support courageous Democrats by contributing to the DCCC today and be automatically entered for a chance for you and a guest to be my guests for dinner with Vice President Gore on December 3rd.
