| Pacquiao -- We just found out that Mitt Romney and the Republican Party raised more than $100 million in June. The gap between what we're raising and what they're raising is growing -- and if we don't work to close this gap now, we risk losing at all levels in November. We're working hand in hand with the Obama campaign to ensure that the President, and Democrats across the country, are victorious in November. So I wanted to pass along a message from Obama campaign manager Jim Messina that talks about this fundraising gap -- and how we can fight back. Read the email below, then pitch in $3 or whatever you can to turn the tide in this election: http://my.democrats.org/Close-the-Gap Thanks, Patrick -----------------Original Message----------------- From: Jim Messina, BarackObama.com Subject: Urgent Friend -- Romney and the Republicans announced yesterday that they brought in more than $100 million in June. For context, that's about what we raised in April and May combined. We're still tallying our own numbers, but this means their gap is getting wider, and if it continues at this pace, it could cost us the election. If everyone who's been waiting to give pitches in $3 or more today, we can start reversing this trend in just a few hours. Please do your part -- make a donation of $3 or more right now. One hundred million is alarming enough, but it doesn't even include the millions pouring into pro-Romney super PACs -- or the fact that, unlike four years ago, it's perfectly legal for the Koch brothers, Sheldon Adelson, Karl Rove, and anonymous billionaires to funnel unlimited money into attacking President Obama in critical battleground states. I'm proud of the way we build this organization. Through the primaries, more than three-quarters of our donations were from people giving less than $1,000. Meanwhile, in that same period, Mitt Romney's campaign raised three-quarters of its money from people giving $1,000 or more. If we don't take this seriously now, we risk finding ourselves at a point where there is too much ground to make up. We need to do something about it. Today. Please donate $3 or more: http://my.democrats.org/Close-the-Gap More to come. Messina Jim Messina Campaign Manager Obama for America |
