I'm the underdog...

From:"Anthony Weiner" <anthonyweiner@anthonyweiner.com>
...but that's fine by me.
Nothing worth fighting for is ever easy. Our campaign to keep New York the Middle Class Capital of the world is off to an amazing start. In a few brief weeks of campaigning, we have attracted hundreds of volunteers, crowds of New Yorkers at our whistle stops around the five boroughs, and an undeniable buzz that has lead the political establishment to sit up and take notice.
As I write to you, we are a mere 89 Days away from the Primary and 144 days from Election Day. As Yogi Berra might say, "It's getting late early".
I need your help. I need you to be part of this historic campaign. Can you make a contribution today?
Every dollar means another voter we'll be able to contact. In fact, $35 means we can send a letter to 100 citizens. $100 can get us a television advertisement. And if you are a New York City resident, the New York City campaign finance program matches your contribution 6 to 1. So a $175 contribution nets us $1,050!
Some have said that our campaign is trying to make history. Maybe that's true, but most importantly we are trying to make life better for Middle Class New Yorkers and those struggling to make it.
With your help we will do both!
Sincerely,
Anthony
