A few weeks ago, I wrote you about our party's Senate candidate in Georgia, Jim Martin. I asked for your help and you came through, contributing almost $30,000 to his campaign.
 
Our efforts paid off, and Jim Martin held Saxby Chambliss to under 50% of the vote, forcing a runoff election that will take place on December 2.
 
You can help put Jim Martin over the top and give Barack Obama another vote in the Senate to pass his agenda.

In 2002, Saxby Chambliss and Karl Rove ran one of the most disgusting campaigns imaginable, airing a television commercial that attempted to scare voters with images of Osama Bin Laden.
 
Back then, John McCain called the ad "worse than disgraceful" and condemned it. Well, last week John McCain headed down to Georgia to campaign for Chambliss.

Jim Martin needs all the help he can get to fight back.

Democrats have already picked up seven seats in the Senate, bringing our total to 58, including Mark Begich who was declared the winner in Alaska last night. In Minnesota, a statewide recount begins today and several experts predict that Al Franken could prevail.
 
If Jim Martin can pull off a win in Georgia on December 2, that just might give Barack Obama 60 votes in the United States Senate.

I know it's been a long campaign season, but right now Jim Martin needs your help more than ever.
 
Thank you,

It's because many, many Democrats have given up on trying to make you understand how to fight
for Democrats and American values against the Republican onslaught.

MAKE THE REPUBLICANS FILIBUSTER. It's not about "making them talk all night." Who cares if they talk
all week? The point of a filibuster is to MAKE THEM APPEAR AS OBSTRUCTIONISTS. It's simple.
Obama and the Democrats work to improve the country, the Republicans whine and squeal
and obstruct with their filibustering. Orchestrate this with a smart, well-run media campaign
to highlight their obstructionism and whining.

Or not. You could just keep knuckling under to the Republicans. Meanwhile, we're looking for
a new majority leader.
