We have six days.
In six days, California voters will go to the polls to decide who Barbara's opponent will be: the failed CEO who laid off thousands of workers and shipped jobs overseas, the architect of the Schwarzenegger budget, or the tea party extremist.
In six days, one of Barbara's opponents will become the nominee and begin focusing all of his or her attacks on Barbara Boxer and her record -- for the next five straight months through election day in November.
In six days, we have to be ready.
That's why, today, we're launching a $200,000 grassroots fundraising drive -- so that no matter who emerges out of next week's G.O.P. primary on June 8, we're ready.
Contribute to Barbara Boxer's campaign today -- and make sure we're ready for our opponent as soon as we know the winner of the June 8 GOP primary!
Last week in San Francisco, President Obama talked about what has been accomplished since he took office: significant steps to putting the American economy back on the path to recovery, making the single largest investment in clean technology in history, passing the Lilly Ledbetter Fair Pay Act, and of course, enacting sweeping health care reform.
But, he said, there's a lot more to do. In President Obama's words: "If you want to see that change happen [...] then, doggone it, re-elect Barbara Boxer!"
We understand that Barbara's leadership in the Senate is critical to keeping this country moving forward. Meanwhile, every single one of Barbara's opponents support the policies that got us into the problems we have today.
Contribute to Barbara Boxer's campaign today -- and make sure we send Barbara Boxer back to Washington, D.C. to keep working hard for all of us!
On June 8, the nominee to challenge Barbara Boxer will be chosen and then the general election begins.
We've got to be ready for the attacks on Barbara's record of accomplishment as soon as the votes are counted and the Republican primary winner is known.
That's why we need you today.
Contribute now, and help us reach our $200,000 grassroots goal by June 8!
Thank you for your steadfast support of Barbara Boxer's campaign. Your support is essential to making sure we have the resources to win.
