Obama Could Lose 17 Electoral Votes

Thanks to your dedicated support the Our Country Deserves Better Committee has cut Barack Obama's lead in Michigan in half in just one week's time! And as I write this note to you we are preparing a massive ad blitz in the state of Michigan over this upcoming weekend. We are now putting ALL of our resources into this state to win the critical 17 Electoral Votes at stake.

If we can win win Michigan for John McCain it will mean a gain of 17 Electoral Votes for McCain/Palin and a loss for Obama that he hadn't been expecting. That's a 34 vote Electoral Vote swing that will likely mean the difference as to whether Sen. John McCain wins this presidential race. We simply cannot let Barack Obama win this election!

We have 24 hours now until we have to place our media buy in Michigan for this weekend. I am asking every one of you reading this note to make a contribution that we can use in our Michigan ad campaign to defeat Obama. The maximum allowed contribution is $5,000 and some of you will be able to help with this amount, or a $2,500, $1,000 or $500 contribution. You can contribute online - HERE:

Some of you will only be able to afford $100, $50, or $25. Even a contribution of $10 or $5 will help. The key will be to get thousands of Americans to make an investment in this effort to defeat Obama. This is a critical time.

Some of you have asked why Michigan? The answer is easy: With an unpopular Democrat governor who is closely tied to Obama (Democrat Gov. Jennifer Granholm) and Obama's ties to disgraced Detroit Mayor Kwame Kilpatrick, and the one-state Depression that has engulfed Michigan, this state is ripe for us to win for the McCain/Palin ticket.

And here's the best part: so confident was Obama in winning Michigan that he pulled almost all of his advertising dollars and paid staffers from the state. This state is up for grabs if we can get our message out. Sarah Palin has told the press that she wants to fight for Michigan's 17 Electoral Votes... so let's go win this state for her!

Friends, we can shock the nation if enough of you make an investment within the next 24 hours. Ask your friends, family members, neighbors or co-workers to match your donation. We can own the TV airwaves uncontested and do to Obama what he has done to the McCain campaign in other states: overwhelm them with a massive advertising buy.

Again - time is of the essence, please make a donation between $5 and $5,000 - CLICK HERE TO CONTRIBUTE:
