Within Reach

Dear Erick, Last night, our campaign made major news in South Carolina when we secured one of the Palmetto State's most sought-after endorsements. State Senator Tom Davis - the most outspoken advocate for fiscal responsibility, conservative principles, and limited government in the South Carolina legislature - knows Dr. Paul is the only candidate serious about reining in the out-of-control federal government and getting this country back on track. Senator Davis noted, "Ron Paul's record matches his rhetoric, his fiscal plan matches the fiscal challenges that our nation is facing, and his movement represents the taxpayers whose interests have been ignored in the political process for far too long." "I'm also endorsing him because unlike what the pundits have led you to believe, he is the candidate who gives the Republican Party the best chance to beat Barack Obama in November." Polls continue to show that Dr. Paul is the best candidate to take on and defeat President Obama, but we've got to do everything we can to win him the Republican nomination first. Our campaign is surging in South Carolina, and the overwhelming support we've received in our South Carolina Money Bomb has enabled us to increase our ad buy and intensify our Get-Out-the-Vote efforts. But with another historic result this weekend so close within reach, I want to leave nothing on the table during our final push. So can Dr. Paul count on your support today? You may be able to give as much as $100 or more.  Or you may be able to only donate $30 or $20. Every dollar is greatly appreciated, and every dollar you can give allows us to reach more voters. Jon Huntsman, who the media did its best to try to prop up in New Hampshire, has dropped out of the race and endorsed establishment candidate Mitt Romney. The contrast couldn't be clearer. One campaign heads home while another climbs in the polls. We're getting stronger every day because our campaign is based on throwing out the playbook in Washington and getting serious about tackling our nation's problems. That's why more and more voters are choosing Dr. Paul and passionately supporting his campaign. Huntsman's exit just before the South Carolina primary also presents an opportunity: more undecided voters to reach! You and I know firsthand how powerful the freedom message is and how Congressman Paul's principled record of consistent conservatism is unmatched by any other candidate. When you put those two elements together, and our campaign cuts through the bias to take the truth directly to voters, the result is more enthusiastic Ron Paul supporters! With Senator Davis' endorsement, and Jon Huntsman's exit from the race, the opportunity to recruit more voters and further boost our poll numbers is there for the taking... ... if we act right away and give this final push our all. If you've already donated to our South Carolina Money Bomb, thank you so much for your support. I hope you'll make an additional contribution right away. I know times are tough.  Believe me, I wouldn't be asking if another historic result in the South Carolina primary weren't within our reach. And if you haven't donated, please do so today. Every contribution is used to win this race and put Ron Paul in the White House! When the results are in on Saturday night in South Carolina, let's not have to look back and wish we did more. As Senator Davis noted in his official endorsement, "We have a choice: We can keep electing candidates who talk about change only during political campaigns as a way to get elected, or we can finally elect a candidate who will walk the walk and make that change a reality - restoring our bottom line, our individual liberties, and our national pride in the process." Donate today to our South Carolina Money Bomb so we can have every possible resource at our disposal for victory! For Liberty, John Tate Campaign Manager P.S. With State Senator Tom Davis' endorsement providing yet another boost of momentum to our campaign, and Jon Huntsman's exit leaving more undecided voters, we must act right away to fully capitalize in this final week before South Carolinians head to the polls! We've extended our South Carolina Money Bomb through this Saturday's primary to make sure we leave nothing on the table. Can Dr. Paul count on your most generous contribution right away? If you've already given, I urge you to dig deep one more time.  I wouldn't ask if another historic result weren't within reach. And if you haven't yet contributed, please do so today. Every dollar raised helps us reach another voter with the freedom message and the truth about Dr. Paul's unmatched, consistent conservative record.
