John,

You may have noticed that we still have a lot of work left to do in Washington. Rebuilding our infrastructure -- and our middle class. Improving our schools. Working with President Obama to move the country forward.  Lots of work.

But if we're going to do it, we need more people in the House of Representatives who want to help.  You know, instead of spending their time trying to turn back the clock on women's rights and repeal everything we've accomplished over the last four years.

Luckily, Cheri Bustos is one of those people.  And I'm proud to be standing with candidates like her all across America.

Can you click here to send Cheri Bustos a contribution of $10 or more right now?

Here's what I'm worried about.  Let's say we re-elect President Obama this November and keep the Senate Democratic.  That's good!  But if we don't have a majority in the House to match, we could end up in a situation where we can't even agree on a lunch order, let alone pass the legislation we Democrats care about.

That's why we need to fight hard to reclaim the House majority -- and not just by electing more Democrats.  We need to stand with people who really understand the challenges middle class families face, and who are willing to work their tails off to make real progress starting in January -- especially when those people are in tight races.

That's the kind of leader we have in Cheri, and that's the kind of race she is facing.  But the right-wing special interests are paying attention to these races, too.  And we have to stand together if we want Cheri to win.

So stand with me right now: Click here right now and help Cheri win her tight race with a contribution of $10 or more.

It's going to take lots of victories to get the House of Representatives we Democratic Senators need as a partner in moving our country forward. But we can get this done, one race at a time, one click at a time, and one contribution to great leaders like Cheri at a time.

Thanks -- and tell 'em Al sent you.

Al

P.S.: You do know that we're 15 days away from the election, right?  So why haven't you clicked on one of the links in this email yet?  Here, I'll give you one more shot at it: Click here to help Cheri build the grassroots organization she needs to win!
