John McCain: Your urgent support is needed in the next 72 hours
:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:


My Friend,

This weekend, I was honored to have Governor Sarah Palin join me on the campaign trail in Arizona for rallies in Tucson and Mesa. The crowds and energy were tremendous and I'm thankful Governor Palin was able to take time out of her busy schedule to support my reelection campaign.

Since President Obama's signing the health care takeover bill into law, I have continued to serve as a vocal opponent of the President, Harry Reid and Nancy Pelosi's flawed legislation. Governor Palin and I both support a repeal of the bill, and I know that we are not alone. Millions of citizens are angry at the Democrats for ramming through a government takeover of health care.

I assure you that I am fighting each and every day to repeal this bill in order to get our country back on the right course. This is why it is more vital than ever that I continue my service to the people of Arizona and our country in the U.S. Senate. But I write to you today with an urgent request because my service to our country could be in jeopardy.

As I have told you, I am facing a tough reelection battle. My opponent has set out to raise $1 million in the month of March to defeat me. He launched his campaign with a tirade of false accusations in an attempt to distort my record of conservative action. And he's used these to raise funds to launch even more attacks.

I need your immediate support to communicate my conservative voting record to the people of Arizona. Please follow this link to make a donation of $25, $50, $100, $250 or more to my campaign.

My friend, this is a vicious cycle and the only way to stop it is to win reelection. I am fighting back against these attacks, and friends like Governor Palin are helping me, but I also need your support.

We have a fundraising deadline approaching on March 31st so any amount you can give in the final 72 hours is appreciated. An immediate online donation is the best way to ensure the money we raise is deposited before Wednesday at midnight, so please give right away.

I appreciate your support and pledge to continue fighting for a repeal of this disastrous health care law.

Sincerely,

John McCain


P.S. In the wake of the Democrats' passage of their health care overhaul, I have recommitted my work in the U.S. Senate to our shared values. But this work is in jeopardy as I am in the middle of the toughest reelection campaign I have ever faced. I am thankful for friends like Governor Palin who have pledged their support to me. Today, I ask you to join her and make a donation of $25 or more in advance of our March 31st deadline. Your immediate support is greatly appreciated.

2. I never thought I would one day wish that a slug like hayworth would win an election
But I'm so tired of listening to this embittered angry old fart and seeing his lumpy face that I look forward to his defeat in the primary.

Then we can send Hayworth back to his little radio gig in November.

12. How are we going to send Hayworth back to radio

when Democrats are not running anyone? Janet Napolitano was supposed to run for that position but Obama took her to DC.

3. Hey McNasty - you weren't "my friend" in 08, and you sure aren't "my friend" now
So stop calling me that.

5. While he remains more sane than Hayworth.. he really deserves
to lose in a humiliating way. Big time.

6. And you will owe me $7M for reading your e-mail within the 72 hours.
Care to cough up the dough, a-hole?

Don't think so.

9. Isn't John McCain really a Socialist?
I would love to see him eaten alive by a teabagger while Sarah Palin explains that she had her fingers cross behind her back while she was endorsing him.

10. think about it
Would it be easier to unseat this grumpy old lump that even the Republicans have lost their taste for, or a teabagger upstart that might stir up some excitement among the wingnuts? Hopefully they slug it out to the point they are both battered, bitter, and broke...

13. McCain...makes me sad
There was a time I liked this guy. He wasn't a lock-step Republican. He had some good ideas on immigration. He was opposed to torture. I didn't agree with him often, understand, but I could at least respect him.

Not anymore.

15. "My friend", "my friend", "my friend"
Has Mr McCain still not come round to reading the assessment of his presidential campaign speeches? (Summary: of all things that didn't work, the phrase "my friends" excelled in turning voters off)

It's not like he was busy working on health care reform or anything, so is this just an old habit dying hard?
