The Demorat Sweepstakes

Tags: obama

So the latest gimmick the Ds are using to attempt to raise money to less the coming November defeat is giving away a chance to meet Obummer himself.  That's right, the great I WON is going to meet with some lucky supporters.  All you have to do to enter is give up a donation of $3.  Can you imagine how cool it would be to meet this asshole in person?  I'm tempted to enter, it would be fun to have a chance to ask him all of those questions lefty "journalists" refuse to ask.

Here's the entire text of the email.

Greg --

Two years ago, I met 10 of you.

Just before I accepted our party's nomination in front of 80,000 people in Denver, I spoke with 10 grassroots supporters who had won a trip to meet me backstage.

I still remember the time we spent together -- because these are the people, like you, who stood with me in 2008, and got me through the tough fights since.

But we face another test on November 2nd that will say a lot about our future -- and I need you by my side again.

A Supreme Court decision I strongly disagree with has shifted the balance of power in our elections from folks like you to giant corporations. Their massive spending on attack ads could have a real impact on who represents you at all levels of government. Only supporters like you -- and all the work you are doing -- are standing in their way.

This may be our toughest fight yet.

So next week, just 11 days before the elections, I want to meet three supporters like you backstage at a rally in Las Vegas -- one of the last big rallies of this campaign.

Please make a $3 donation now to be automatically entered to win a trip to be at my side at the rally in Vegas.

This movement has always been about more than me. It's about change, and the kind of future we envision for this country.

The folks I met backstage in Denver told me they wanted health reform, a clean-energy economy, and a resolution to the war in Iraq. They wanted a new kind of politics, and a new kind of leader.

It was their hope and expectation that together we would move beyond the status quo, that we would counter the special interests and corporate influence in Washington -- that we would do what was right and necessary for all Americans.

With your help, we have made historic progress, but there is much left to do -- and it will not happen without your involvement. I need strong allies in Congress who will stand with us in the tough fights ahead, and I need you to give it all you've got through November 2nd to make sure they can.

Your donation today will provide critical support to our Vote 2010 campaign as we reach out to millions of voters who will decide the closest races across the country.

It will determine if we pass this test, and win our toughest fight yet.

Please donate $3 or more to be automatically entered to win a trip to Las Vegas to meet me backstage:

 

Notice the number of times the word I is used in this message. I realize that it was written by a campaign operative and not the looser in the White House but I still find it amusing. Especially when he says things like:

This movement has always been about more than me. It's about change, and the kind of future we envision for this country.

I really thought it was all about him, period.  His problem is that the "change" he is attempting to bring is not the "change" most Americans actually wanted.  Now there is real change coming to Washington and this guy is going to be shutdown for his last two years in office.  He's going to become a lame duck a bit earlier than expected.  I just hope it's not too late.
