 Norm Coleman and the Republican leadership in Washington are holding
President Obama's change agenda hostage.

They know that when Al Franken gets seated, Democrats will be closer than
ever to the filibuster-proof 60-seat majority.  That's why Coleman has
pledged court appeal after court appeal, even though his own lawyers think
he's bound to lose.
 
 Enough is enough.  Earlier this week, the DSCC asked our grassroots to tell
Coleman, in one unified voice, that the process has worked and that it's
time to give up his court challenges.
 
 The response has been overwhelming.  Tens of thousands of grassroots
Democrats want Al Franken in the Senate so he can help President Obama turn
this country around.
 
 Norm Coleman hasn't heard from you yet.  If you want President Obama's
vision for change to move forward, we need you to get involved.
 
 It's time for Norm Coleman to give up the endless court appeals.  Click
here to tell him to concede the race so Minnesota has full representation in
Congress.

 Remember, Minnesota already did a hand recount of every single ballot and
Al Franken got the most votes.
 
 Now after Norm Coleman had his day in court - as was his right - every
observer thinks he has almost no chance at victory when the three-judge
panel counts the final votes next week.  
 
 Yet amazingly, Coleman has already pledged to appeal the case to the
Minnesota Supreme Court and, if necessary, the federal courts.  It could
take years to hear those challenges, and Republicans think it's OK to deny
Minnesotans their fair representation the entire time.
 
 At some point, they have to give it up.  Please take action immediately to
tell Norm to step aside.
 
 Click here to tell Norm Coleman it's time to concede.  President Obama
needs Al Franken in the Senate.

 The response from our grassroots has already been huge.  Thank you in
advance for joining our ranks.
 
 Sincerely,
