Romney-Ryan Friend,
I wanted to make sure you saw the latest polls since the debate on Wednesday night. Mitt Romney's performance has moved numbers in key battleground states and victory is in reach:
Ohio: Romney 47%, Obama 46% source: We Ask America Ohio: Obama 50%, Romney 49% source: Rasmussen Florida: Romney 49%, Obama 46% source: We Ask America Virginia: Romney 49%, Obama 48% source: Rasmussen Virginia: Romney 48%, Obama 45% source: We Ask America
But the billion-dollar Obama juggernaut won't go down without a fight.
That's why your support is critical to keep up this momentum.
We can't afford four more years of President Obama - please contribute now.
Thank you,

#SaveBigBird
|
On Wednesday night, Mitt Romney told us he'd fire Big Bird.
Seriously!
If you want to protect Big Bird, here's how: Log on to Facebook, check your voter registration status, then share the app and make sure your friends are registered, too:

Sesame Street friends aside, the debate on Wednesday reminded me why I'm proud to support President Obama.
He told us the truth. He treated us like grown-ups, and he kept it real, talking about what we need to do to put America back on track. The president said point-blank that we've got to improve our education system by hiring more teachers and keeping college tuition low.
That wasn't a zinger -- that was some straight talk from a President who's fighting for young Americans.
Looking for more facts in your face? Obamacare allows young people to stay on their parents' insurances plans until they're 26. Millions of young adults including more than 3.1 million who were previously uninsured have the President to thank when they don't have to shell out the big bucks for a check up.
President Obama's got our back. He's got Big Bird's back -- and Bert's, Ernie's, Elmo's, and the rest of the gang on the Street.
We've got to get his. #SaveBigBird and get on #TeamObama.
Make sure you can vote this fall -- and that your friends can, too:

You could be on your way, [name]
|
Thousands of this campaign's most incredible volunteers are on their way to battleground states to help get out the vote through Election Day.
They're a part of Vote Corps -- and you should join them.
Here are a few reasons why:
1. There are only 32 days left in this election. There's not much time left to have a big impact.
2. It's flat-out amazing to be a part of the team that helps win a key county in a key state. The camaraderie out there in the field is unlike anything else, especially as we near the end.
3. You could spend some time in a battleground state where you have friends and family, or in one you've always wanted to see -- and you'll have an awesome excuse for the trip.
4. If you want to fight back against Mitt Romney -- the guy who said corporations are people and wants to turn Medicare into a voucher program -- this is one of the most effective ways to do it.
5. President Obama needs you out there, just as soon as you can go.
The logistics: You'll go to your battleground state as soon as you're able, whether that's a week before Election Day or as early as next week, and you'll stay through the end. You'll pitch in full time -- organizing, making calls, and having conversations with voters about the President's record and why it's important for them to vote. It's unpaid, but you'll make friendships that will last a lifetime.
The last weeks of this election are coming up really fast, so don't wait -- get out there as soon as you can. Apply now:

Let's get this done together,

This is big, big news:
|
How's it feel to be a record-holder?
Last month, we surpassed 10 million donations in 2012 alone. We made history.
In September, 1.8 million grassroots supporters like you chipped in $X million to support the campaign and our party's grassroots organization. That's by far our biggest month.
This race isn't over. These last 31 days are the most important, when the final decisions are made. Let's finish strong -- chip in $X or more today:
[url]
More than the total, I love how we raised it. Here are the numbers:
-- 1.8 million people donated to this organization in September -- 567,044 of them for the first time ever. -- For the month, our average contribution was $X and 98 percent of our contributions were $X or less.
Those are great numbers. But it's the people -- like you -- who are the heart of this campaign and make this all possible. It's people like Sarah from North Carolina, who gives to the campaign every month. She says: "Words cannot describe what President Obama has done. I am much better off. He saved my home ... my blood pressure medicine used to cost me $X every month. Now it only costs $X a month."
But let's take a step back for a second: This last month is going to be our toughest and most important yet, and every single one of us needs to step up and keep this momentum going.
Next week, Mitt Romney and his allies are preparing an unprecedented negative ad blitz in critical battleground states across the country. We saw in the debate the extent to which Governor Romney is willing to distort the truth to win -- and we know what that kind of "leadership" will do to our country.
We're going to have to work harder than ever before.
Last month you showed exactly what we're capable of on the ground. In states like Iowa, our ground game kicked off early voting in a big way -- more than 65,000 Democrats have already cast their ballots, compared with more than 21,000 Republicans. In Ohio and Florida, we celebrated the openings of our 100th field office in each state. And speaking of Florida, our team registered 10,000 new voters in a single day last Thursday . We're still looking into if that's a record.
Point is, we're doing this right, but there's still a lot to do. One month to go -- can you donate $X or more today?
[url]
I know you have the President's back every day -- and that matters. It's what gives him, and everyone on this campaign, the confidence and inspiration to keep at it these last 31 days. And I promise you we're all going to do the best we can to honor that support. Together, we will get this done.

I have amazing news, month, we surpassed 10 million donations in 2012 alone. We made history. And we raised $X million during the month of September. I don't think I have to tell you how huge that number is.
The more important tally, though, is the number of grassroots donors who came together last month to chip in what they can to help grow this campaign and our party's grassroots organization: more than 1.8 million Americans -- 567,044 of whom were first-time donors -- giving an average donation of just $X. And 98% of the donations were $X and under.
Day in and day out, you're out there getting the President's back. It's your commitment that gives him -- and everybody who works for this campaign -- the confidence and inspiration to get back at it every single day. And we're all going to do the best we can over the next 31 days to honor that support.
But this election isn't over. With just one month left, we need to lean in and sprint.
Chip in $X or more now so we can finish strong:
[url]
We're building this campaign the right way, from the grassroots up. Laurie, a factory worker in Iowa, perfectly captured the spirit of our campaign: "I plan to make another donation, probably several. I actually love that you can make a six-dollar donation. Six bucks? Come on, that's a burger or some coffee."
What makes our campaign so strong is that people like Laurie are giving what they can when they can, because they know that every donation counts, no matter how big or small.
Our opponents don't have that. They're relying on distortions, negativity, and outside groups to win this election.
In the debate, Romney showed just how far he was willing to deviate from the truth in order to win. Outside groups are flooding the airwaves with negative ads trashing President Obama and everything we've accomplished together in the past four years.
Over the course of next week alone, these groups are planning an unprecedented negative ad blitz in battleground states across the country.
That's why it's so critical that we don't get complacent. I know I've asked a lot of you these past few months, but that's only because this is extraordinarily important.
Donate $X or more now so we can keep our guy -- the right guy -- in the Oval Office:

Obama - Biden
You should be the first to hear about this.
the most for an election year in history. And we raised an incredible $X million in September from 1.8 million Americans supporting this campaign and our party's grassroots organization, with more than 567,000 donating for the first time.
We did it the right way one donation at a time, each an average of $X and 98 percent of donations $X and under.
We have exactly one month to go and this race is still neck and neck. Chip in $X or more today I can promise you that your donation will go further today than it will later on.
You're building the best grassroots campaign our politics has ever seen. Take a look:
1 Last month, we opened our 100th field office in Ohio and in Florida. That's just incredible, especially when you compare that to the 38 Romney offices in Ohio and the 47 in Florida.
2 Speaking of Florida ... on Thursday alone, our team registered 10,000 voters there. In a single day. Similar things are happening across the country. Last month in Nevada, we registered twice as many voters as Republicans did, and we now lead the party breakdown by 71,000 registered voters.
3 From here on out, every day is Election Day. People are voting right now in key states like Iowa, where more than 105,000 people have already cast their ballots 62 percent of those voters are Democrats, compared to just 20 percent Republicans.
The work you're doing is paying off. It's how we're going to win this election.
On good days and bad, it's on all of us to have the President's back. I can
inspires not only the President, but everyone who works on this campaign. And my staff knows it's their job to honor that commitment by running the smartest, quickest, and most battle-tested organization we can.
In the debate this week, our opponent was both wrong and dishonest that's a dangerous combination. We're telling voters the truth.
The stakes are too high for us to lose this election. Chip in $X or more, and let's go win:

Game day

Obama for America
In basketball, getting ready for the big game takes years of hard work on the court and in the weight room.
But getting ready to vote? Now that's easy -- and this year it's more important than I can ever remember.
So much is on the line this election -- from good, affordable education to equal rights for all -- and it's up to us to deliver the win for President Obama.
Will you ask your friends to register to vote today?
If there's one thing I learned on the court, it's that people can always achieve more when they're working together as one team. That's the vision President Obama has for our country -- and that's why it's so important for us to vote in this election. I couldn't be prouder to have a president who stands up for the middle class and provides a good role model for us all. It doesn't hurt that he knows how to make a jump shot, too.
So I'm going to tell you the same thing I always tell younger players: Make sure you're ready for game day.
Get your friends to register to vote now:

It's game time. Let's go win this thing.
