We got beat

For the first time in this campaign, we got beat in fundraising.
The Romney campaign and the Republican Party raised more than $76 million
last month, compared to our $60 million.
We knew this moment would come when Romney secured the nomination.
What happens next is up to you.
Help close the gap right now make a donation of $25 or
more.
I want to be clear: We'll always have more people pitching in.
We know that only 15 percent of Romney's May totals came from people giving
less than $250, compared to 98 percent in that category for us.
We don't have the special-interest and high-dollar donor advantage that
Romney has. Barack Obama has you, and we are bound and determined to fight
back on behalf of a country where everyone gets a fair shot and a fair
shake.
From the beginning we've built this campaign together, from the bottom up.
More people giving a little bit is the only way to compete with a few
people giving a lot.
So let's fight like hell and win this thing:

P.S. Together, our team raised more than $60 million in May even more
impressive when you hear that the average donation was about $55. Check
out the rest of our
numbers.

We learned this morning that the Romney campaign and the Republican Party have outraised us for the first time in this campaign.
Let's be clear here -- we could have 10 times as many people giving to us. You can see our results at the bottom of this message.
But they've got a lot fewer people, each giving in many cases 10 times as much, and those big donors are lining up now that Romney is the presumptive nominee.
That means it's up to each of us who has given to Obama to dig a little deeper to make up the difference. Now's the time to do it, before we fall further behind.
Mitt Romney has a lot banking on the storyline that his campaign isn't raising that much money compared to ours. But it's clearly false.
When Obama supporters repeat that point, it gives me chills.
The truth is that Obama haters and, to a lesser extent, Romney allies have declared that they will spend more than a billion dollars to make Obama a one-term president. In key states, outside groups have already poured $75 million into ads attacking the President. We just saw in Wisconsin what unlimited money from corporate interests and right-wing ideologues can do for a candidate who's ready to do exactly what they want.
And that's on top of what the Romney campaign and the Republican Party raise -- we learned this morning that it was $76 million in May alone -- and whatever he might contribute from his personal fortune.
From the beginning we've built this campaign together, from the bottom up. We are bound and determined to fight back, on behalf of a country where everyone gets a fair shot and a fair shake.
We don't have the special-interest and high-dollar donor advantage that Romney has. Barack Obama has you.
What are you going to do?
