"It's going to be a bloodbath."
That's what National Republican Senatorial Committee chairman John Ensign promised Louisiana Senator Mary Landrieu in her re-election race this fall. And we can expect this to be the playbook across the country.
That's why I wanted to make sure you help me support Mary and two other candidates that I am sure will be under nonstop attacks from the national Republicans this fall: Carol Shea-Porter (NH-1) and Darcy Burner (WA-8).
Join me and give Mary, Carol, and Darcy the resources to fight back. Please contribute to their campaigns before the March 31st end of quarter deadline!

Mary is leading the fight to rebuild hurricane-damaged parts of Louisiana after the Bush Administration's mismanagement led to unbelievable delays and mistakes. She's taking George Bush head on, overriding President Bush's veto of a bill providing $7 billion to restore wetlands and rebuild levees after Hurricane Katrina.
Mary Landrieu is also trying to fix our priorities on national security. She has been a strong and persistent voice calling on the Bush Administration to focus on capturing the person actually responsible for 9/11: Osama Bin Laden.
Now, national Republican operatives want to take Mary out, making her race their #1 priority. Mary's voice is one we can't afford to lose this year. Donate to her campaign before the March 31st deadline!

Carol Shea-Porter is running for re-election in New Hampshire's 1st Congressional District. As many of you know, Carol is a member of our Clark community, volunteering for my presidential campaign 4 years ago. After the 2004 election, I urged people to get involved, run for office and bring new leadership to the party. Carol did just that, and with our help beat the odds to become New Hampshire's first female member of Congress.
Carol is one of us, running a truly grassroots-driven campaign. She understands the need to engage the Middle East with diplomacy, provide better health care for all Americans, and take care of our veterans. But she's one of the Republicans' top targets this year, and her campaign is facing a tough election in November.
Help Carol Shea-Porter win a second term. Support her campaign before Monday's fundraising deadline!

I have written to you before about Darcy Burner, who is running for Congress in Washington's 8th District. She comes from a military family, and her family background will bring a needed perspective on the war in Iraq and veterans issues to Congress.
Two years ago, Darcy lost a tight race to Republican Dave Reichert, but Darcy doesn't give up so easily. We helped her get close last cycle. It's time for us to put her over the top. George Bush and Karl Rove have already come to Washington to help her opponent. We have to respond.
The race is sure to be tight again. Please contribute to Darcy's campaign and put her over the top in 2008!

Americans are looking to Democrats to fix the mess created by the Bush Administration. They are looking for change, and they are looking to us to deliver it. Republicans know that their only chance is to drag us down into the gutter with relentless attacks and distortions.
We can't let them do it.
Sincerely,
Wes Clark
Glad we're helping all three, and especially Carol and Darcy!

Hmmm it explains why "some" Rep. are not really compassionate with our soldiers and when they return, and what is happening to Iraqi citizens...
"It's going to be a bloodbath."
It reminds me of Shakespeare's Macbeth… That is, picturing a neocon holding a hammer with bloody hands. I mean, every problem is a nail, no?
Anyway, my help is going to be small and I wish them best of luck.
And go Carol! Actually, recently I have visited New Hampshire for ice climbing, and it’s a beautiful state and then there is the great Mt. Washington... The state still has a strong presents of colonial time as well.
Thank you again, Sir.

So nice to see you supporting Shea-Porter despite a differnce in endorsements & of course Darcy Burner is a real winner on so many levels!
