Democrats believe in the middle class. We believe in fair play. And we believe in winning with a grassroots team effort, not million-dollar checks from the Koch brothers. Deadline: Midnight. Stand with President Obama. Contribute.

Democrats believe in the middle class. We believe in fair play. And we believe in winning with a grassroots team effort, not million-dollar checks from the Koch brothers.

All week, Mitt Romney, Paul Ryan, and the Republicans have put their radical agenda on display. And they have practically unlimited resources at their disposal to put that agenda into practice.

The country's future is hanging in the balance. You and I now must respond.

But with this midnight FEC deadline looming, we can't just say we won't let Republicans buy this election and impose their agenda, we have to show them. And that means responding to their convention with a massive wave of energy and enthusiasm for President Obama and core Democratic values. Right now, you have an opportunity to be part of that response.

As you read this email, we have 16 hours before the FEC deadline and $X to raise so we can fight back against the far right. Will you chip in $X to get us closer?

This is a critical moment. We're not just between the two big conventions, midnight tonight is the biggest fundraising deadline yet.

Being a Democrat isn't just about protecting Medicare and creating good middle-class jobs. It's about rallying together at important moments to move our nation forward.

So take action -- right now -- and beat the midnight deadline. Contribute $X to defend President Obama and progressive Democrats like me.

We're at one of those moments right now. Let's make a statement.

Thank you, Sherrod Brown
