Dear Greenbriar,
As you know, my mission as the new Chairman of the Republican National Committee is to rebuild our party from the grassroots up – using new technology to spread our conservative message and remind voters that our party is the one and only true party of the people.
But before we get too far down that road, we’ve got some unfinished business to attend to. Specifically, we’ve got to stop liberal Democrat comedian Al Franken from stealing Norm Coleman’s U.S. Senate seat in Minnesota.
As you may know, Norm Coleman won re-election on November 4th by 215 votes. But a subsequent recount -- tainted with inconsistencies and improperly counted ballots -- awarded a temporary 225-vote margin to Franken.
As I write to you, Franken and his allies are working feverishly to persuade a panel of judges in Minnesota that certain un-counted ballots must remain un-counted… and deny the one-person, one-vote principle which is the very foundation of our democratic process.
Your immediate financial support of the Coleman for Senate Recount Fund will help us stop this tragic injustice, and I urge you to click here now to help.
As the former Lieutenant Governor of Maryland and candidate for the U.S. Senate, I’m no stranger to the gutter campaign tactics and shady legal maneuverings of the Left Wing. They don’t fight fair, and they’ll stop at nothing to consolidate the power they crave.
This outrageous power grab by Al Franken and Harry Reid must not stand. With Norm Coleman in the Senate protecting taxpayers, it would have been much more difficult for Obama and Reid to get the 60 votes they needed to pass their outrageous, pork-laden stimulus package. And with Norm in the Senate protecting workers, it will be much more difficult for the Democrats to pass “Card-Check” legislation that will prevent the right of workers to cast secret ballots in union elections.
These are but just a few of the reasons why I’m counting on you to support Norm Coleman’s recount fund with the most generous contribution you can make.
Click here to contribute $15, $25 or $35. If you can contribute $50, $100, $500 or more – up to the legal maximum of $2,300 per person – please do so now. Whatever the amount, we need your help to keep a good man doing a fine job for the conservative principles you and I share.
Republicans must once again assert that the opportunities this nation has to offer rests not in government, but in the hands of individuals. Through both our words and our deeds, our party will do just that in the elections to come.
But first, we’ve got some unfinished business from 2008. The power to return Norm Coleman to the U.S. Senate rests in your hands right now, through the click of a mouse and your contribution to the Coleman for Senate Recount Fund.
I look forward to your reply. Help me help Norm, and begin the process of rebuilding our party for 2010 and beyond.
Thanks so much,
Michael Steele Chairman, Republican National Committee
