Democrats --
Obama campaign manager Jim Messina got it right when he said that "we made a big bet in this campaign."
Our big bet is on our supporters like you -- that your support can help us cross the finish line in November. And I couldn't be more confident that this bet is going to pay off.
 Help give Democrats the resources they need to win on Election Day. Donate $X or more today. 
Mitt Romney and the Republicans believe their big donors and outside groups can fund enough misleading TV ads to turn the election in their favor. Their campaigns aren't based on a plan to create jobs or improve people's lives. Their plan is to buy the White House with a mind-boggling amount of money. Seriously.
Democrats do things differently. We're counting on millions of Americans to go to bat for the candidates who are fighting for working families. The way we're going to elect the President and Democrats across the board is by volunteering, chipping in what we can, and talking to voters one on one.
Is it a bit of a risky proposition? Sure.
But it's a risk we're ready to take because we believe everyday Americans -- not special interests -- should decide elections. And because people like you will step up, showing we can go toe to toe with any super PAC or wealthy individual.
 We're staring down the most urgent fundraising deadline yet. Donate $X today to prove that we not only have the better strategy, we have a winning strategy:
