donate

It's neck and neck in more than a few states. While I vote and have even sported a bumper sticker or two, I've never donated to a campaign before. This year is different.

If you even have $5 to spare (skip one latte/beer/chai tea this weekend) then can I press you to donate to the Obama campaign TODAY.

And I mean today, Friday, Sept 19th.


Email from David Plouffe, Campaign Manager, Obama for America:

With just 45 days left before the election, your support will affect crucial decisions about infrastructure in key battleground states. Our fight in the battleground states is going to be tougher than a lot of you mayt hink. Take Florida, where George Bush won by just 381,000 votes in 2004. The campaign we're running there is going to cost more than $39 million.

A donation now could have a big impact on voter registration and Get Out The Vote operations -- so please don't wait if you're planning to give.

A previous donor has promised to match every dollar you donate. A matched donation of $5 becomes $10, a donation of $25 becomes $50, and a donationof $50 will become $100.

Show your support before midnight tonight and double your impact: https://donate.barackobama.com/newgoal4a


Can you afford 5 bucks? 10? More?
Take 2 minutes and donate online before midnight to double it.


Who knows...that $10 you throw down might be used in the Michigan voter reg drive I'm volunteering for in two weeks!
