DON'T TIE ME TO OBAMA

In the latest in a series of smear tactics, my opponent Dennis Ross launched his first television ad this week.  Instead of explaining his own extreme positions, he is reaching into the same old Republican playbook, trying to tie me to Barack Obama and blame me for our struggling economy.  This is a desperate move by a politician who is trailing in the polls and can't defend his own radical agenda.  

Can you contribute $50, $100, $250, $500 or whatever you can afford to help me show Dennis Ross that the same old smear tactics will not work?

The truth is Dennis Ross wants allow big banks to gamble away our Social Security, protect special tax breaks for companies that ship our jobs overseas, and shift the tax burden onto the middle class by implementing a national sales tax of 23% on everything Americans buy.  He can't defend his own radical agenda so he is attacking me.

He knows my message of standing up for the middle class and small businesses against the harmful practices of big banks, big oil companies, and big insurance companies is resonating and his message of standing up for the special interests is falling flat.  

If we get our message out and set the record straight, I know we will win.  Help me defend against the smear tactics of Dennis Ross.  Please contribute today!

Thanks,
