Dear Constituent, You have the power to take on the special interests. On Monday, July 28th, Vice President Dick Cheney will raise $250,000 for the Bush campaign from a handful of special interest contributors at a luncheon in Columbia, South Carolina. Let's show George W. Bush and Dick Cheney that we will not let our government be sold to the highest bidder. Let's show that the grassroots are stronger than the special interests. At the end of June, the Dean campaign posted a "fundraising bat"-- a baseball bat that marked online contributions to the campaign-- on the Dean for America homepage. More than 73,000 Americans contributed $7.6 million dollars to Howard Dean in the second quarter, mostly through small donations. Thousands of Americans understood that their contribution, when combined with the contributions of thousands of others, had the power to change our country. The bat became a symbol of that power. To take on Dick Cheney and George W. Bush-- to beat back the special interests-- the Dean campaign is "Bringing Out the Bat" this weekend. Our goal is to raise $250,000 in online contributions by midnight, Monday, July 28th. You can take part. You can show George W. Bush and Dick Cheney that the grassroots campaign for Howard Dean is going to send them packing.
