I can't afford this, but I want to defeat Bachmann so bad so for the first $200 I will match your contributions. I wish I could afford this, and I wish I could afford more. Please give!
#1 I talked with my mom today about the Tinklenberg/Bachmann debate today, where in her closing statement, she brought up the abortion issue. Because she was last, Tinklenberg didn't get the chance to respond. Mom also told me about being at an earlier debate where Tinklenberg stated his opinion, then in the Bachmann response which immediately followed she completely misstated Tinklenberg's position. (He did correct the misstatement, and he waited around after today's debate and made a statement regarding his position on abortion, which was then played on the news.)
#2 Got this email from the campaign.
Dear Friends,
I had hoped this campaign would be an honest discussion of how to rebuild our nation’s economy, create jobs, and strengthen the middle class. But Congresswoman Bachmann is embarrassing the people of the Sixth District once again, dragging what should be a civil debate into the gutter with two new attack ads accusing me of being a criminal.
Her allegations are baseless and just flat-out false – evidence of a desperate campaign that will do anything to win.

The extreme right has come to Congresswoman Bachmann’s aid in the last few days with more than $860,000 in contributions to help her air these smears and lies. Bachmann is raising money because of what you did last week – by generously funding our campaign, you’ve activated the country’s fringe right-wing, and they’re on the attack. She is firing up her base and will stop at nothing to keep from losing her Congressional seat: a seat she simply assumed was hers. That is, until you spoke ten days ago.
We simply cannot let her get away with these heinous attacks. The voters of the Sixth District deserve better. Bachmann’s extremism and divisiveness know no bounds. We must do all we can to deny her a second term. You’ve done so much to help us reach this point, and we are in a strong position to win this race. But we need your help now more than ever.

Please help us finish what we started. We can do this with your continued enthusiasm and support.
Sincerely,
El
El Tinklenberg
P.S. Please help out today with one last contribution to help our Get Out the Vote efforts.
