Sherrod Brown Needs Our Help

[otohara]

Progressive Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH) may have a harder time getting reelected than some observers thought. Ohio state Treasurer Josh Mandel (R), a 33 year-old Iraq War vet and former state Representative in his first year of statewide elected office, raised $2.34 million in the last fundraising quarter, significantly more than the $1.5 million Brown hauled in between April and June.

Brown still has an impressive $3.5 million cash on hand for his reelection bid, and Mandel still has a Republican primary to deal with. In fact, Mandel has not yet made an official campaign announcement, though he's been raising money for a Senate races and gathering up endorsements for months.

Among those standing with him, according to the Cleveland Plain Dealer, are Sen. Jim DeMint (R-SC) and the Club For Growth, heavy-hitters in the conservative community and the kind of backing most any Republican making a serious run for office would want.http://tpmdc.talkingpointsmemo.com/2011/07/gop-challenger-to-sherrod-brown-raises-big-bucks.php?ref=fpc

1. K&R - Let's put our money where our mouth is, around here.

And if you don't know me yet, you should know that I hardly ever say anything that does not go at least as much for myself as it does for anyone else.

4. I wonder how much AIPAC

is giving to this 'I've been elected to my first job and I don't like to work...I just like to go to fundraisers and collect money and drink cocktails and eat little Vienna sausages wrapped in dough' jerk. I wonder what kind of job he had in the military??

I rarely open my wallet to any politicians anymore....but Sherrod is actually one of the few good guys we have left in DC.

5. Sen. Brown is the Real Deal

Please send a few bucks his way, if you can.

I've had the opportunity to talk to Sen. Brown on more than one occasion; we need more just like Sherrod in the Senate.
