It's August 23rd. And 75 days from now, I'll either be looking at another four years in the White House or the end of this opportunity. And it's not just about me the progress Democrats have fought for across the country is on the line in these elections.
I know what's at stake for the parents worrying about health care, the kids who need help to go to college, and the seniors who want a secure retirement.
But we're getting outspent by wide margins in critical battleground states and what we do about that today could be the difference between winning and losing on November 6th. 
By donating to the Obama Victory Fund, you can help close the gap, and get me and Democrats nationwide closer to victory.
So as we near one of the last fundraising deadlines of this election year, I'm asking you to pitch in $X or whatever you can, right now:
