EMAIL DETAILS

Dear Hunter,

It can be a real slog to get through my inbox these days. All those news clips about polls. All those obnoxious requests to contribute $5 to help fund my own grassroots machine (yes, I get them, too).

And, once in a while, an email like this gets forwarded my way:

SUBJ: Say Goodbye to Al Franken

This week we are launching our next round of Independent Expenditure ads in Minnesota to Defeat Al Franken.

Oh, great.

You know we can't let these new ads go without a strong grassroots response. Can you contribute $5 toward our $350,000 October goal?

That email was sent by a group called the "Conservative Campaign Committee," and it's full of cheery information like:

Our latest ad buy comes on the heels of brand new polling data which shows that Al Franken is in trouble in his re-election bid for U.S. Senate in Minnesota:

And:

The changing dynamics of this race has compelled Roll Call to now move Franken to #10 on the Most Vulnerable U.S. Senators who are up for re-election.

And:

Here's the good news: New polls show Franken is in serious trouble and might lose his re-election bid.

You get the idea. And I bet you know what I'm about to say next: These outside groups are a real threat in the final days of this election -- unless we're prepared to fight back against their attacks.

Please click here to help us reach our very last monthly fundraising goal of the campaign by contributing $5 right now!

I know that this email barrage is no fun -- whether it's coming from me or from one of these special interest groups devoted to defeating me.

But what will be fun is winning. And you can make that happen.

Thanks,
Al

P.S.: Here's another line from the "Conservative Campaign Committee" email, in case you didn't get the gist of their message: "Al Franken must be defeated." And here's another line from me, in case you didn't get what I was driving at in my email: Please click here to donate today!
