Dear Friends:

I’m writing to thank you for working so hard to save this great country. Yesterday, I asked you to help us raise support for Christine O’Donnell who is running to the U.S. Senate Delaware. Like always, you responded.

We set a goal of raising $174,000 for her campaign over the next week, which is the amount of “coordinated” money national Republicans could spend helping her but won’t. Thanks to your generosity, the Senate Conservatives Fund was able to raise $150,000 for Christine’s campaign in just 24 hours. At this pace, we will reach our goal of $174,000 very soon. You can track our up-to-the-minute progress by clicking here.

I also wanted to send you a link to one of many television interviews I did yesterday about the Delaware race and the ongoing battle that’s taking place within the Republican Party. Click here to watch the video.

Following Christine O’Donnell’s historic win on Tuesday, the Washington establishment launched an all out assault against me for supporting this principled candidate. They say she can’t win and that by supporting her, I’ve helped lose the seat for Republicans.

Well, I’ve been in the majority with Republicans who didn’t have principles, and we embarrassed ourselves and lost credibility in front of the country. Frankly, I’m at a point where I’d rather lose fighting for the right cause than win fighting for the wrong cause.

Of course, these attacks are really against you and the thousands of freedom-loving Americans in Delaware who supported Christine, but the Beltway insiders know better than to publicly criticize you. This is what one anonymous Republican aide told the press yesterday:

“If on Nov. 3 there are two or three seats in Democratic control that otherwise would have been Republican victories, then that anger will come back up to the surface and there will be consequences,” said one aide, declining to cite specific punishments DeMint might face.

I’m not certain what “consequences” this unnamed person has in mind. They can’t use their usual political power tactics to strip me of committee chairmanships or deny me earmarks because I do not seek either.

What they will do, however, is continue to insult the American people through cowardly anonymous attacks in the press. It makes no difference. I did not come to Washington to make friends. Rather, I came to save our country and I’ve learned you can’t do it without rocking the boat.

That’s why we need to work hard to elect Christine O’Donnell. She’s not afraid of the party bosses or the Washington power brokers. She will stand up to the big spenders is both political parties and help us take our country back.

But make no mistake: Christine won’t win unless we fight for her. National Republicans are not going to invest real money in this race and her primary opponent, Rep. Mike Castle, is refusing to endorse her.

The dirty little secret in Washington is that the establishment is quietly rooting for Christine to lose so they can continue to peddle their discredited line that conservatives cannot win. They mistakenly believe that a single defeat in Delaware will discredit the work we have done this year to elect principled leaders in Pennsylvania, Florida, Colorado, Kentucky, Utah, Nevada, Wisconsin, Washington, and Alaska. They are wrong. We can win in Delaware too and prove them wrong once again.

But this won’t be easy. Christine O’Donnell was leading her Democrat opponent in the polls by a significant margin until the party establishment began attacking her. They’ve done great damage to her image in the state but we can restore it. Many voters have already rejected the smear campaign against her and we can convince others to reject it too.

Please forward this email and video to your contact lists and encourage your family and friends to join the fight. There are only seven weeks remaining before the biggest election of our lifetime. We need everyone to help.

Also, please consider making a contribution to the Senate Conservatives Fund PAC today so we have the resources to fight the battles the establishment won’t. We’ve shown in race after race that we can elect principled leaders because there is power in numbers. We don’t have the special interests behind us, but we do have an army of freedom-loving Americans.

Thank you for your continued support and encouragement.

Yours truly,
