from Alison Lundergan Grimes.

When September rolls around in less than five days, we will truly be entering the home stretch of our campaign.

Since we started our journey 14 months ago, we've already made history – breaking grassroots fundraising records and beating back Mitch McConnell's record-breaking spending on misleading attacks.

Last week the urgency of our fight became even more apparent when Mitch McConnell promised more government shutdowns and partisan games if he's reelected.

We've still got time to stop him. The Washington Post called our race one of the "tightest" in the country – and that means every day and every dollar counts.

Contribute $5 or more now and help us reach our goal of finding 2,000 new online donors before the end of August.

I really hope my contribution does not jinx her/our efforts. My past record is not very good.

about shutting down the government. Let the people know that kind of thing will only hurt regular folks. Also, she needs to keep on pointing out that KY like many Southern states (and others) have really gotten a boost from Obamacare which McTurtle wants to defund and then eliminate.
