Here's the email the Kerry camp just emailed out

Dear XXXXXXX,

John Kerry won tonight's debate on foreign policy, and we need you to make sure the media reports this right.

Jump into the post-debate debate and keep the record straight.

America saw John Kerry as our next President tonight. Bush had a record of failure to defend, and he failed to defend it. Bush refused to take responsibility for his go it alone rush to war. Bush had no plan, no clue for ending the chaos. Bush can't fix the mess in Iraq because he pretends things are fine. Pretending is no substitute for planning.

Your assignment: Immediately e-mail and call all the major networks and programs listed below saying that John Kerry won the debate. The Republicans are going to do everything possible to spin the debate in their favor. We need you on the offensive.

Everything you need is in this e-mail, including contact information for the major news networks and programs.

Here are some things to emphasize:

America saw John Kerry as our next President tonight.
Kerry showed strength, conviction, and a steady command of the facts.
Kerry left no doubt he can lead the fight to hunt and kill the terrorists.
Kerry offered hope for a fresh start in Iraq so we can finish the job. Kerry has specific plans: Bush had shallow promises.
Here is a phone/e-mail list for the major news networks. Commentators like Larry King, Chris Matthews, Sean Hannity, and Alan Colmes are on TV right now offering their view of the debate results.
