Mitt Romney and the Republicans are enjoying an uninterrupted national spotlight to make their case to millions of people.

But the number that really matters right now is how many people can chip in before the critical August fundraising deadline -- it's one of the last we have.

We're within striking distance of 3 million individual Americans giving to President Obama's 2012 campaign.

We're getting close to that milestone because of folks like you, and more people are pitching in every day. But the fact is that winning requires those of us who can to dig a little deeper, and give a little more.

It's up to you. Will you make a donation of $X or more right now?

What you do right now will have a bigger impact on the outcome on November 6th than anything going on in Tampa.

P.S. -- Oh, and if you're fired up by all that noise going on at the Republican National Convention, the best thing you can do is channel that energy here.
