The Democratic Party
-----------------------
Robert --

Last night in the Indiana senatorial debate, Republican Richard 
Mourdock said that when a woman becomes pregnant as the 
result of rape, "it's something God intended."

One day earlier, Mitt Romney, the leader of the Republican Party, 
appeared in a TV ad supporting Mourdock's campaign, making 
him the only candidate in the entire country for whom Romney 
cut an ad in the general election. The fact that he has chosen 
Mourdock as the best representative for the Republican Party 
tells you everything you need to know.

And Governor Romney still won't back off his endorsement of 
Mourdock, let alone demand that Mourdock's campaign pull 
down the ad.

Yes, Robert, these are the kinds of candidates 
that we're working so hard to defeat in less than two weeks. But we 
can't do it unless Democrats across the country have the resources 
they need to win -- donate $5 or more now:

As hard as it may be to believe that a politician in 2012 actually believes 
something so offensive and demeaning to women, these views are part 
and parcel of the Republican Party's platform on women's health.

At a Mourdock rally earlier in this election, Romney said, "This is a man 
who I want to see in Washington, to make sure that we can not just talk 
about changing things, but actually have the votes to get things changed."

This man could be your president-elect in 14 days.

As a woman and a mother, I can't imagine raising my son in a country led 
by politicians who think so little of women and their health. And I'm going to 
work as hard as I possibly can every single day to make sure that we beat 
these guys on Election Day -- but I can't do it alone.

Donate $5 or more now to ensure that the GOP's backwards views on women's 
rights don't become a reality:

P.S. -- Think it's unacceptable for Romney to continue to endorse Mourdock?
