If you're on the OFA mailing list, I'm sure you received this email today. However, in light of all the blatant, in-your-face GOP lies, I wanted to post Joe Biden's letter here because the August donation deadline is tomorrow, and we've got to give until it hurts.
Paul Ryan's speech, hell, the GOP's entire clown car convention (the peanut tossing especially) has lit the "Fierce Urgency of Now" fire beneath me.
If we win this election, it will be because of what you did in moments like this to help close the spending gap.
Because this is real: Just last week alone, Mitt Romney's campaign and his allies outspent our side by at least three to one in North Carolina, Iowa, Michigan, Minnesota, Colorado, and Pennsylvania, all states we need to win.
That could swing the election -- but it doesn't have to.
Tomorrow is our biggest fundraising deadline so far. Will you make a donation of $13 or more today and help this campaign hang in there for the final two months?
Tonight Mitt Romney will deliver a speech that millions of Americans will hear.
He's going to say a lot of things about Barack Obama, and belittle what we stand for.
When he does, remember the important role you play in the political process. Remember the kind of man our president is, and the tough choices he's had to make from that Oval Office.
Voters in some very important states are hearing distortions and lies from people who've invested a lot to see Barack Obama removed from the White House.
Fight back. Donate $13 or more and make sure your voice is heard just as loud:

We wouldn't be here without you. Thank you.
Joe
P.S. -- Deciding that the stakes are high enough to do our part isn't a November 6th decision. It's one I'm asking you to make right now, before tomorrow's big fundraising deadline.
Please, let's not let the President and Joe down. But most importantly, let's not let our country down. The lunatics are attempting to gain control of the car again. BO got the car out of the ditch, but now they want the keys so they can drive it over a cliff.
