Obama - Biden --
Big news: Last week, the Fourth Circuit U.S. Court of Appeals issued a ruling that will help bring shady outside groups out of the shadows and make them release their donors.
Karl Rove, the Koch brothers, and every other shadow player with secret, undisclosed donors potentially have a big problem: If they're going to throw millions into ads to influence this election by trashing President Obama, they're going to have to step up and own it.
It's clear that these guys will try to evade, appeal, and drag their feet in any way they can to get through Election Day without disclosing the names of the corporations and individuals trying to secretly buy this election.
So it's up to us to put the pressure on them and demand that they respect the ruling and disclose their donors.
 Add your name now to show you're not hiding -- and demand that Rove, the Kochs, and the rest disclose the corporations and individuals funding their organizations.  
Our campaign discloses its donors according to the law, and our average donation is about $X.
Karl Rove and the Kochs run organizations that are the opposite -- totally secret. We don't know what their average donation is. It could be in the hundreds of thousands, or millions.
These secretly-funded political organizations abuse laws meant for charitable organizations to effectively launder money to influence elections, without any accountability from the press or the public. They want to be able to affect the outcome of this election and have their identity known only to the power brokers who arrange meetings with elected officials, push legislation, and influence policy.
That's not how our democracy should work.
To fight for President Obama and win this thing in November, we need to know exactly who we're up against. And when voters are blitzed with negative TV ads telling them to vote for the other side, they deserve to know who's behind them.
We can't just wait for them to do the right thing.
 Ratchet up the pressure on Rove, the Koch brothers, and the rest of the GOP outside groups to come clean and reveal who's funding them:
