Roland Burris, Meet Scott Brown

View as Webpage or on Mobile Device | Forward to a Friend Dear Fred, The people of Illinois deserve better than Roland Burris, the machine-backed Senator who was appointed by a corrupt governor to represent you. But as Scott Brown's stunning Senatorial victory yesterday in Massachusetts shows, no political machine can stand up to the will of the people. The Democrats threw the kitchen sink at Scott Brown in their effort to keep "Ted Kennedy's seat," as they called it. But thanks to grassroots leaders like you, Fred, our Party had the resources to take back what is really the "people's seat" for the first time in over 48 years. Republicans now have the 41st vote we need in the U.S. Senate to break Harry Reid's filibuster-proof majority and put the brakes on Obama's radical tax-and-spend, big government agenda. And it's the vote we need to stop the Obama Democrats' disastrous government takeover of our health care system. This is our Party's first victory of 2010 -- and it won't be our last. Republicans will build on the momentum from our big win in Massachusetts, but our candidates across the country and at all levels are counting on your continuing support of the Republican National Committee for the resources they need to organize strong campaigns. Please help keep our Party on track to nationwide victories in the upcoming mid-term elections by making a secure online contribution of $25, $50, $100, $500 or more to the RNC today. With your continuing support, we will retake the U.S. House, reclaim the U.S. Senate and elect more Republican governors and state legislators in 2010. Thank you again for helping our Party make history last night in Massachusetts. Sincerely, Michael Steele Chairman, Republican National Committee P.S.: Fred, Scott Brown's victory shows that with the support of the people, Republican candidates can win anytime, anywhere. We want to help you send Roland Burris packing and elect a Senator that will represent your interests, not the interests of the Democrat machine. So please, make a secure online contribution of $25, $50, $100, $500 or more to the RNC today, so that we can provide you with the assistance you need. Thank you.
