John,
I won't lie to you, John. We're fighting an uphill battle right now. Let me explain:
FIRST, Republicans realized that if I win this race, Democrats are virtually guaranteed to expand our Senate majority.
THEN, polling showed me neck-and-neck with Marco Rubio, so national Republicans poured millions into Florida to stack the cards against me.
NOW, Mitch McConnell's committee is launching the first of many attack ads to defeat me – and we’re falling dangerously short of our $50,000 grassroots fundraising goal. We need to make up the difference before midnight!
Republicans are trying to buy this seat – no matter how much money it takes – and we desperately need more resources right now to compete with Rubio
