I'm not going to lie. It's been a long, long week.

I went straight from celebrating the Supreme Court ruling on health care to staring down the single biggest fundraising deadline of this campaign so far.

So if you've been thinking about making a donation to help build this campaign, today's the day to do it.

So excuse my bluntness: Can you donate before tonight's deadline?

Obama - Biden Hey,

I'm not going to lie. It's been a long, long week.

I went straight from celebrating the Supreme Court ruling on health care to staring down the single biggest fundraising deadline of this campaign so far.

You said you're planning to chip in to help build this campaign at some point between now and Election Day. There isn't a better time than right now.

So excuse my bluntness: Can you donate before tonight's deadline at midnight your time?
