I'm personally a huge Howard Dean fan, but we don't have a bat.  We don't have the time for a bat.  I barely have time to type up this plea--I have to drive seven of our collegiate canvassers back to campus and finishing tabulating our canvass and phone bank reports for the night.  We're at the last possible moments for raising the funds for Tuesday's GOTV.  This race has tightened and we have to beat the Republican ground game to secure a margin of victory.

This is Katherine Harris's seat.  This is the most expensive race in America.  The Republican nominee, Vern Buchanan, is a far-right ideologue who has spent more than $5.5 million of his own money to try and buy this seat.  His partisans are running harassing automated phone calls designed to give the impression that they're from Christine at all hours of the day and night to voters throughout the district--Kos diaried about this tactic again today.

President Clinton has headlined an event for Christine (so have Wes Clark, Barbara Boxer,  Hillary Clinton, Tim Roemer, Bob Graham, Bill Nelson, Kendrick Meek, and Stephanie Herseth, among others), President Bush has headlined one for Buchanan (so have Dick Cheney, Mitt Romney and Tom Reynolds, Jeb Bush, Mel Martinez, among others).  This is one party versus the other in a direct confrontation.

We have to win this seat.  We have to get out the vote.

If we get your contributions in by noon tomorrow, we can have ActBlue cut us a check that will arrive by Tuesday at noon.  That will ensure we can push voters to the polls until the last possible moment.  If we can't raise enough money, we won't be able to fund a full day of GOTV, and the Republicans can snatch this seat at the eleventh hour.

Please, give one last time and help us make it over the top.

Support Christine Jennings.  Please.

(And please recommend--we need as many people to see this as possible)
