Mitt's a warm, friendly guy -- and a very proud grandpa -- who just happens to be running for president.

If you happen to win this "On Board" contest and end up meeting Mitt on the campaign plane at 30,000 feet -- I'm sure you'll find him to be as grounded and down to earth as I do. But this contest ends tonight.

[url] So donate $X before midnight tonight to be automatically entered for a chance to join Mitt on the campaign plane.

This is a very cool opportunity to meet Mitt in a unique setting. Don't miss out!

Romney-Ryan Friend,

Time is running out on this contest -- have you entered it yet?

On board with Mitt

Every entry gets us closer to winning on November 6 -- so I hope you'll throw in a few dollars for a chance to get on board with my dad.

We're in the final stretch of this important race, and we're counting on your support.

Donate $X before midnight tomorrow to be automatically entered.

Craig Romney
