Ever wonder exactly what the Democrats have in store for the 2012 campaign?

If you're like me, you always want the inside scoop where we're

focusing, what's our game plan, how we're going to win across the country.

Well, I could give you a long lecture, filled with charts, briefing papers,

and footnotes. Or you could get it straight from the source: Chairwoman

Debbie Wasserman Schultz.

Donate today, and you'll be automatically entered for a chance to have

lunch with Rep. Wasserman Schultz and you can ask her whatever you'd

like.

If you care about this fall's races, and what the Democrats are doing to

win, you shouldn't pass up this opportunity. Trust me, no matter how much

you read or watch the news, you'll get more out of an hour with Debbie than

an entire election cycle of talking heads and pundits.

Plus, your donation will make a huge difference for Democrats in critical

races across the country. They're counting on us we can't let them down.

Don't miss out on this chance make a donation of $X or whatever you can

to be automatically entered today:

DNC Chair Debbie Wasserman Schultz wants to meet you. She's the boss, so I'm working to make that happen.

This is an absolutely critical election for Democrats, and we're heading right into one of the most important fundraising deadlines of this campaign.

That's why Debbie is inviting a few supporters like you to sit down for some lunch and talk.When you donate to support Democrats today, you'll be automatically entered for the chance to win lunch in Washington, D.C. with Debbie:[url]

It's a great opportunity to help shape the party in the months to come, and Debbie can't wait to meet you. We'll take care of your hotel and your airfare, so no need to worry about that.

Good luck,

Hildy

As communications director of the DNC, I'm on the road a lot that's what

you get for a career in politics.

But I have to tell you, hands down one of my favorite people to be on

the road with is our Chair, Debbie Wasserman Schultz.

She's tough, funny, and one of the sharpest political minds I know.

So if you enter to fly out to D.C. and have lunch with her, I promise

you'll have a good time.

Don't miss your chance to meet the woman Barack Obama chose to run the

party while he is in the White House. Just pitch in $X or whatever you can

to be automatically entered to win that trip today.



Before Debbie was the DNC Chair, I'd seen her take Republicans head on in

Congress. I've seen her nail exactly what Democrats are fighting for on TV

and in speeches across the country.

And she's not afraid to cast tough votes in Congress the ones that

aren't always popular, but the ones that are right.

If you make a donation today, you'll be directly helping Democrats in races

across the country from the smallest congressional race up to re-electing

President Obama before our critical quarterly fundraising deadline on

Saturday.

And you'll also be automatically entered to win a trip to Washington, D.C.

to sit down for a meal and talk politics with our Chair.

I wouldn't pass this one up. Get your name in the mix today:
