Below is the latest RNC e mail that I received where Ken Mehlman and Michael DuHaime go over some of their grassroots efforts and strategies for the GOP to try and keep power in the midterm elections.
I have said it before and I will say it again. You have to know what your opponents are doing and what top GOP leaders are telling their grassroots activists to do in order for us to help our candidates who we are supporting to run the best possible campaigns against the Bush rubber stamp GOP candidates who they are running against!
Please forward this on so that all Democrats can see this and will know what their grassroots activist opponents are doing so that the candidates who we are supporting will have the best possible chances of winning their races against the Bush rubber stamp candidates who they are running against!
Democrats taking back at least one branch of Congress in 2006 is the ONLY WAY to help restore some real accountability back to government and to the extreme GOP leadership before 2008!

Listen to Gen. Wes Clark fight for Dems on Sean Hannity's radio program:
An excellent example for all of us to follow and what we all need to be doing to help fight against extreme right wing Neocon smear propaganda which will help our local candidates to win their races!

Dear Mitchell,
I wanted to send you a personal note with this must-read news from our RNC Political Director, Michael DuHaime. Our grassroots efforts are already making a huge difference - moving voters into the Republican column for the critical midterm elections just 74 days from today.
Because of this great news, I have set a goal of funding 3 million additional voter contacts for the final stretch - by the Labor Day start of the campaign. Mitchell, your support will make a critical difference to this effort. Your contribution of just $50 will enable our volunteers to personally call over 600 voters. A contribution of $250 enables us to reach over 4,000 voters - the margin of victory in a close election.
Please visit our special web site to contribute to this effort and track how many more voters we will reach because of your efforts:
Thank you again for everything that you do for our Party and our President.

With the traditional start of the Fall campaign just a week away, our nationwide grassroots effort is kicking into high gear. The response in August, traditionally a slow month, has been tremendous:
In the last four weeks, our volunteers have contacted more than 2.2 million voters through phone calls and door-to-door efforts, and registered thousands of new Republican voters.
Grassroots volunteers talking to their neighbors are still the best way of convincing undecided voters to support our Republican candidates. We need to make sure we have the resources to fully fund these volunteer programs through November 7.
Republicans are slightly behind in most national polls. But when the voters we reached heard about our Party's message of winning the War on Terror and reducing the tax burden, Republicans pulled even. If we can reach even more voters with this message, there is no doubt in my mind that we will retain our Republican majorities in November.
Expanding this volunteer effort is the key to victory, plain and simple. Just $180,000 raised online by Labor Day will enable our volunteers to personally contact 3 million more voters in the critical 60 days before Election Day.
Let's pass this along to our incredible online activists to let them know just how big a difference their efforts will make. Can our team get it done before Labor Day?
