The Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee has sent out a new fundraising e-mail, officially under the name of Sen. John Kerry, using the specter of Newt Gingrich to raise money from supporters:
Key quote, with emphasis in the original:
Newt Gingrich’s economic plan: Make inner city kids go to work, and, as he boasted Monday night, make sure that Mitt Romney pays no taxes. The middle class can fight over the crumbs.
Contrast that with President Obama’s vision: Invest in American jobs. Strengthen our middle class. Pursue policies that work for everyone, not just the very top.
We know all too well what’s coming. Republicans will attack, assail and lie to destroy President Obama and usher in one-party rule. If the thought of President Gingrich leading a GOP Congress scares you beyond belief, then I’m asking for your urgent help.
The DSCC needs $405,000 in grassroots donations by its crucial Jan. 31 FEC deadline. Fall short, and the GOP can make President Obama a one-term president, and the GOP controls the entire Congress.
