Republicans are taking the podium at their convention today, and millions of people will start paying attention to this race for the first time.
The message they'll hear will mirror the distortions Governor Romney has based his entire campaign on -- amplified 10,000 times.
They're going to talk about the economy, but they won't mention that their $5 trillion plan gives big tax breaks to people who don't need them. They won't mention their plan to turn Medicare into a voucher system that could cost seniors up to $6,400 more per year. They'll talk a lot about strengthening the middle class, when their plan is to do the opposite: repeal Obamacare, cut Pell Grant scholarships and Head Start funding, and raise taxes on the average family.
Donate $5 or more today and make sure we have the resources we need to fight back.
There are very real and important differences between Mitt Romney and Barack Obama, and we're going to keep pointing them out. But we've been outraised three months in a row, and now we're getting outspent on the air by as much as three to one in some battleground states.
The other side is banking on their TV ads to be louder than any organizer we've got on the phones and on folks' doorsteps.
That's what we're fighting this week.
We need to be ready. Make a donation of $5 or more today:

This week is going to remind us all that we're on the team that fights for everyone, not just those at the top. We're the campaign that's having an honest debate about the issues that matter to American families.
Thanks.

“...big tax breaks to people who don’t need them...”
That’s it in a nutshell. Who are they to decide people don’t need their own money?
You didn’t make that. The Government made it for you.
There’s a lot of class envy and hatred of success on the other side.To be successful you have to work hard,and the thought of work repels these bums.
I get an email from nobama almost every day. The more amusing ones I post here.
The progressing of begging has been interesting.
Throughout all of this they are constantly bashing you over the head with how much they are being out spent.
They began by begging for $2.
$2 became $3.
$3 became $5.
$5 became $10.
Then the big leap, today: $10 has become $25.
Hilarious.
Seems to me that if everybody is supposed to agree on what a wonderful job nobama has done that the money would be an avalanche.
In other words “they won’t blatantly lie to America”.
I haven’t got any of the $10 and $25 ones yet. I did get one where they were begging for $3, then a few days later resent it with a “hope you got this it’s really important” forward and changed it to say $5.
Years ago I was a linguist (VN conflict). We flew on AWACS aircraft which included operators conducting jamming.
Here I sit during the RNC convention being telecast on Fox News and some group is apparently jamming the telecast which I receive on Brighthouse (Warner) via cable in Manatee County Florida.
I’ve noted apparent jamming on my TV occasionally during the past year but only during Fox News broadcasts, not on any other program.
This apparently is a first taste of the next four years of this failed Marxist regime.
I don’t know why he is out there groveling for a measly $5.00 or aren’t those wedding and abortion registry donations pouring in?
now its $5Trillion? The tax cuts must be HUGE
Or maybe more total debt than all previous administrations combined.
Or maybe a record 42+ straight months of 8% and higher unemployment. (more like 10% if you don't fudge the numbers as hussein's minions have) This in spite of a nearly trillion dollar stimulus hussien promised would hold unemployment below 8%. (thus illustrating his relative lack of understanding of how the real economy works)
Or maybe all the czars that have been appointed as un-elected rulers over us.
Or maybe the abject failure to secure the border - in fact his "Justice" Dept. {snort} actually sues any state (eg. Arizona) that attempts to enforce federal law on immigration.
Or maybe I'd look at all the golf and vacations he and his family have been on, on our dime.
Or maybe I'd look at how he demeans himself, the office, and our Country by bowing to other leaders. (though calling hussein a leader is being pretty loose with the term)
Maybe I'd rather look at the billions wasted on crony capitalism in boondoggles like green energy, or on union payoffs like GM.
Maybe I'd like to find out how obamacare is going to violate the laws of nature by adding people, reducing costs, and not reducing quality of care. In the real world not many additional people are covered, many lose their coverage and/or doctors, costs go up, quality and availability of care are negatively impacted.
Maybe I'll just sit back and reflect on how P.T. Barnum was right. Somehow, an {expletive} Marxist with fascist leanings and a bunch of terrorist cohorts in crime fooled enough weak-minded people (ie. so-called "liberals") into voting him into office. Well, they say an education is expensive, no matter where or how you get it. America has learned an expensive lesson, time to apply that knowledge and vote the {expletive} out, then work on imprisoning him and his minions.
