***DONATE TONIGHT PLEASE*** GOTV November 4

[kid a]

I just broke out an old 0 balance credit card to make my final donation to Obama - $250.
I'll pay it off in November with a check memo: TO PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA

For sanity's sake and to donate more time to call and canvassing this last week, I've vowed off of DU.
See you guys Wednesday. Just dropping in to spread the donation word one more time via the latest email from Obama HQ:

"Dear D --

I'm the Chief Financial Officer for Barack Obama's campaign. I track the donations coming in and the expenses going out.

I asked for the opportunity to write to you directly so that I could try to explain what's happening right now.

This organization has thousands of employees and spends millions of dollars a day -- and at the moment we're doing it without a safety net.

Our spending plans have been stretched by John McCain's negative attacks and the overwhelming resources of the Republican National Committee.

As of October 15th, John McCain and the RNC together had nearly $20 million more in cash than the combined total of Obama for America and the DNC. And just this week, we're facing new and unexpected spending against us in Montana and West Virginia.

Your incredible generosity has gotten us this far. But right now we need your help more than ever to get this campaign across the finish line.

Please donate $25 or whatever you can afford right now:

My team and I are working to stretch every dollar in order to keep as many paths to victory open as possible. But we need whatever help you can provide for this crucial final stretch."

Thank you,

MM

Marianne Markowitz
Chief Financial Officer
Obama for America
