Don't brush this off, Diane

Diane -- In less than a week, Barack is heading to Chicago for Election Night. Whether he addresses the nation that night as a winner is up to you. Barack knows it. I know it, too. It's why he wants you there with him. But tonight at midnight is your last chance to enter. Donate $5 or whatever you can to stop the other side from buying and bullying its way to a win right at the end -- and you'll be automatically entered to meet Barack and get a front-row seat at the Election Night event in Chicago. Don't brush this off. This race could not be closer, and voters in states that will decide the election are seeing ad after ad after ad attacking Barack and me. Even a great campaign, with the right candidate and the right ideas, can lose to that kind of strategy in the end. I've seen it happen. The dangers of being drastically outspent, especially right now at the end of this campaign, are real. Mitt Romney and the Republicans have $45 million more in the bank than we do for the final push. Together with outside groups, they're outspending us in nearly every battleground state this week. That's a problem, folks, unless you take ownership of this campaign right now. Please donate $5 or whatever you can today, so that if you meet Barack next week, you'll know you did everything you could to help him beat this back: https://donate.barackobama.com/Close-the-Gap Thanks, Joe P.S. -- Don't worry about how you'll get to Chicago and where you'll stay.
