Dear Friend,
Support our featured candidates before the March 31st deadline!
It's time for action.
One of Born Fighting PAC's key goals is to provide early fundraising support to candidates who help us achieve our three primary platforms: reorienting our national security posture, bringing fairness back to our economic system, and developing greater accountability in government.
Today, I am happy to announce Born Fighting PAC's first 4 featured candidates: Del. Donald McEachin, Del. David Poisson, U.S. Sen. Mary Landrieu, and U.S. Sen. Tim Johnson.
In Virginia, we must build upon the momentum from the election of Tim Kaine in 2005 and our victory in 2006, by helping Democrats capture the Virginia State House and Senate in 2007. Helping Donald and David win is critical to this goal.
In the U.S. Senate, 2008 will be our opportunity to expand the Democratic majority, but before we capture new seats, we must defend seats currently held by Democrats. Sen. Landrieu and Sen. Johnson represent so-called "red" states and are the top targets of Karl Rove and the Republican leadership.
I would ask that you consider contributing to Donald, David, Mary, and Tim's campaigns today via my ActBlue page.

Delegate Donald McEachin was one of my earliest and most ardent supporters during my campaign for U.S. Senate. He stood by me and defended me against misleading attacks during the Democratic primary. And in the race against George Allen, he hit the campaign trail and helped carry us to victory on Election Day.
Donald is challenging Bennie Lambert (Lambert endorsed George Allen in last fall's Senate campaign) in the Democratic primary in Virginia's 9th Senate district.
In 2005, David Poisson faced a well-financed incumbent in a traditionally Republican area. As with my own race, he pursued a campagin that focused on positive messages and strong intellectual themes.
Now David faces a tough reelection in Virginia's 32nd House district, and we need to make sure he stays in the Virginia House of Delegates. We need David to continue to focus on the needs of the citizens of Richmond and continuing his career-long dedication on improving the education of our children.
Donald and David will fight for education and economic fairness for Virginians.

Louisiana Senator Mary Landrieu is running for her third term in the U.S. Senate in 2008. In the aftermath of the devastation caused by Hurricanes Katrina and Rita, Senator Landrieu has fought to make sure that the federal government lives up to its commitments to the people of her state -- and that fight continues. With hundreds of thousands of lives affected, and with tens of thousands of homes and businesses still to be rebuilt, the people of Louisiana still need support -- and they have no greater advocate than Mary Landrieu.
Given the changing demographics of the state, and the displacement of so many New Orleans residents who still have not been able to return, it's clear that Senator Landrieu will face a tough re-election battle. But Mary Landrieu has never backed down from a fight -- and I respect that, as I hope Born Fighting PAC does as well.
Senator Mary Landrieu's re-election campaign needs help from those who share our views.

Finally, as some of you know, South Dakota Senator Tim Johnson suffered a brain hemorrhage in December. He is now recovering, and intends to run for re-election. He's fighting to regain his full health, and I would like to help him gain the resources he needs for his reelection campaign when he is ready to work again. Senator Johnson is one of the few members of Congress with a son or daughter (in his case a son) who has served in Iraq. He comes from a small rural state, where working families struggle to make ends meet on a daily basis. His work in Congress demonstrates that Tim knows what it means to fight from the bottom up.
I would ask that you consider contributing to Senator Tim Johnson's re-election campaign.

Your support helped carry me to victory last November, and I thank you for any consideration you would give to Donald, David, Mary, and Tim today.
Sincerely,
Senator Jim Webb

Louisiana Senator Mary Landrieu is running for her third term ----- SLUT
Party of the little Guy. Bought and paid for by George Soros and other billionaires.
Born BrainDead is more like it.
Would you want the support of a weasel who threw his flunky to the wolves like webb did? I wouldn't.
Jim Webb has no honor. If he threw his own best friend under the bus, then can you imagine the personal qualities of the people who would accept his endorsement for public office?
I never heard of David Poisson before, but he sounds fishy to me.
What in the world is economic fairness?
No let me guess, I go to college for 4 years and make 150k a year, you don't finish high school nd can't hold a job becasue you are a moron, we both should make the same money.
Welcome to the Soviet Union.
Would any money he gets from the PAC be a Poission Distribution?
Why can't that damn Oompa-loompa Webb just go back to mixing chocolate for Mr. Wonka?
This is the tip off that the two most vulnerable Dim Senators next year are Tim Johnson and Mary Landrieu. If the Republican Party has any sense left, we'll find two strong candidates who can take down these two blue Senators from red states.
If Webb had had 10 more minutes in the campaign he'd broken out the hoods and red arm bands.
