Dear Me.....
Now that Im a Senator, I look for opportunities to put aside old, petty grievances and forgive longtime opponents.
Im referring, of course, to Wisconsin. Does it grind my gears that the Packers have won four Super Bowls while the Vikings have never won one? It does. Do I like the cheesehead hats? I do not. But that doesnt mean the good people of Wisconsin dont deserve to have an awesome progressive Senator.
Thats why Im proud to support Tammy Baldwin. Ive watched her demonstrate the kind of bold progressive leadership itll take to win tough fights in Washington -- and a keen understanding of what it means to be middle class in America today.
Her campaign is trying to raise $25,000 this month to fight back against special interest attack spending -- will you click here to help?
Just as Vikings fans cant wait to see Adrian Peterson back on the field this September, I cant wait for the day next January when I see Tammy Baldwin sitting with me in the Senate. Except I dont expect her to do much sitting -- shes the kind of leader who likes to stand up and make change happen.
It's Tammys commitment to social and economic justice, passion for progressive principles, and limitless dedication to moving our country forward that make her such a great advocate for middle class America. And its your support that we need to help her pull out a win in November.
The usual cast of right-wing attack dogs are hot on Tammys trail, and her campaign needs your help (by which, of course, I mean a couple bucks of your money). Please click here to make a contribution now and help Tammy Baldwin raise $25,000 by the end of the month!
And think of it this way. If Wisconsin is represented by a talented progressive like Tammy Baldwin, maybe it wont be so hard to watch the Packers win next season.
Okay, it will be. Itll be awful. Just awful. But still. Help Tammy out, would you? And tell em Al sent you. Thanks for your help.
Skol Vikings -- and go Tammy,
Al
P.S.: One thing Packers fans and Vikings fans can agree on -- besides the fact that Tammy is awesome -- is that adding an extra ask in the P.S. of a fundraising email is perhaps the greatest political fundraising innovation of our time. Its true. So wont you join me in supporting Tammys campaign with a contribution?
and needless to say, I did help. I love Al and Tammy
