  Dear John ,

You and I know better than most what Republicans will do to win elections. 
 
 We saw those Swift Boat Veterans impugn the patriotism of John Kerry.  And
we've watched our opponents spread vile lies about both Hillary Clinton and
Barack Obama.
 
                                  The hard truth is that even the worst kind
of smears and slimy insinuations work if no one on our side calls them on
it.  Chuck Schumer and the DSCC have seen our candidates pay the price
before, and you've helped them build a campaign organization ready, willing
and able to leap to their defense when Democrats are in trouble.
 
 When those attacks come - and believe me, they will come - the DSCC's job
is to hit back - swift and strong - in every race, every day.  When a
shadowy third-party organization pours millions into a key race, the DSCC
can only level the playing field with your help.
 
                                  Your contributions in this critical
election year have helped us build a strong foundation, and for that you
have my gratitude.  But now, the DSCC needs your help again so that our
candidates and our party can fight back. 
 
 By helping the DSCC reach its $2.25 million end-of-quarter goal, you give
them all the resources they need to execute our campaign strategy.  Make
another contribution now, and a group of Senate Democrats will match your
contribution 2-to-1, effectively tripling your impact.

contribution of $50, $75, or more.  Giving right now is the best way you can
help the DSCC stop Republican attacks.  Cold.

 There is so much at stake in this historic election.  We're at war in two
countries.  And every important decision about getting out of Iraq and doing
better in Afghanistan goes through the United States Senate.
 
                                  I know that I want Democrats making those
decisions, and I don't want Republicans getting in the way with another one
of their filibusters.  You may not know it, but they've already set the
all-time record blocking more bills than any other Congress in history.
 
 That's why I'm doing everything I can to help the DSCC elect a
gridlock-proof Senate majority in November.  Then we can get down to the
important business of cleaning up George Bush's mess.
 
                                  Tens of thousands of contributions from
committed Democrats like you will give the DSCC everything they need to win
that majority.  In 2006, we all worked together to help the DSCC pour $2.6
million into Montana at the last minute to deflect the attack ads and help
Jon Tester eek out a victory by only 3,562 votes.
 
 2008 has the chance to be even bigger and even better.  The DSCC knows
exactly what it will take to win, and they have to meet all of their quarter
goals so they have the resources to succeed. I know you've been with them
before, so I'm counting on you to make another contribution today and help
put them over the top.

 I've seen first hand the worst of what our opponents are capable of.  I am
committed to never letting it happen again.
 
 That's why I'm supporting the DSCC.  They know exactly how to fight back. 
They proved it in 2006, and now they're ready to make history in 2008 by
electing the gridlock-proof majority that can put our country back on track.
 
 I hope you'll join my commitment.
 
 Sincerely,
 Max Cleland
   
      
  
 Your contribution allows our candidates and our party to fight back.  Give
by June 30 and your donation will be tripled.
