The Joe And Bubba Show

I'm sorry to be "putting the bite on everyone" with these posts, but the end of the quarter is a big deal for fundraising. Also, I probably won't be posting tomorrow, so...

There's less than one week to go before September 30, the end of the fundraising quarter! Tied in the polls, tied in fundraising. We plan on exceeding each of those standards in the coming weeks… and ask your help to do so! $25, $50, $100 -- whatever the amount, will help us to finish the quarter on a "will win" note! Please help by contributing today:

My former boss when I served in the White House, President Clinton, is coming to my home district on October 5th to support my candidacy for Congress because he recognizes the stakes in this election - a need to change Congress for a better America! Please read his comments on this race below!

Our campaign was featured last week in Time Magazine by columnist Joe Klein, who saw: a compelling race, a strong vision for a better tomorrow, and a district ready for change.

But we cannot do it alone. We need your help in the last days before the end of the financial filing deadline! Please contribute today:

The enthusiasm and excitement for our campaign continue to grow:

Congressman Bob Edgar, who served this district so well as the last Democratic representative to hold this seat, joined us last week to underscore the commitment that we have to take this district in a better direction.

Over 200 people joined us last Monday for a distinguished panel on national security, featuring my former colleagues in the Clinton Administration: Tony Lake, Richard A. Clarke, and Rand Beers. Together we laid out a vision to strengthen our security at home and abroad.

But with the end of the quarter quickly approaching, we must have your help. This is a battleground race that will determine who controls the House! We cannot stop now! Join thousands of others who have shown their commitment to taking our country in a better direction:

And thank you… again, for your support.

Warmly,

Joe Sestak

In case you missed it, former President Clinton commented on our race two times in the last week, each in interviews with Fox News:

"There is a House race in Pennsylvania where Curt Weldon, a 20 year veteran, is being opposed by Admiral Joe Sestak, who was a career military man who served in that capacity on my National Security Council staff" (On the Record, Fox News, 9/21).

"We’ve got 9 Iraq war veterans running for House Seats. President Reagan’s Secretary of the Navy is the Democratic candidate for Senate in Virginia. A three star admiral who was on my NSC staff — who also fought terror by the way — is running for the seat of Curt Weldon’s in Pennsylvania. We’ve got a huge military presence in this campaign and you can’t let them have some rhetorical device that puts us in a box that we don’t belong in. That’s their job. Their job is to beat us. But our job is to not let them get away with it and if we don’t we’ll be fine" (Fox News Sunday, Fox News, 9/24).

Yes, even Bill Clinton is watching, because he knows how important this race is for changing the direction our country is headed in!
And if nothing else, the Chris Wallace smack down will bring more attention to "The Big Dog" that hopefully will translate to more exposure and more support for Admiral Joe.
