[Update 2:57 pm] I know a lot of people are tapped out and don't have any more money to give. You can get in touch with the volunteer coordinator of the Martin campaign at: frazier@martinforsenate.com
They can get you set up to make calls on Jim's behalf.
Original Post: In the dark hours of the worst election season of my life, 2002, Saxby Chambliss ran what has gone down in history as one of the most odious political advertisements in modern history, comparing Decorated War Hero and Triple Amputee Max Cleland to Osama Bin Laden. He even morphed Cleland's face into Bin Laden's.
Well, now Saxby is at it again. Terrified as his public approval falls and his opponent Jim Martin nears overtaking him in the polls, Saxby has again gone to the only tool he has - Hateful smears that know no bounds of decency.
Take a look:
Now if that doesn't infuriate you, I don't know what will. Saxby is taking a man, Jim Martin, who has devoted his life to the service of Georgia's working families and compared him to some kind of sick butcher who kills children.
In 2002, we were disorganized, powerless, leaderless, and filled with fear. Our dishevelment allowed evil men like Chambliss to slander the names of men like Cleland.
We don't have to stand for this now. We have a choice and we have the power to put a stop to it.
First, Jim Martin is running his own ad directly responding to Saxby's smears:
Next, Jim has a series of fantastic ads designed to take the fight directly into Saxby's comfort zone.
We have the power to put a stop to this, this time and we will.
Orange to Blue - Jim Martin
It costs $400,000 a week to be on TV in Georgia, help us make sure Georgia voters see more of Jim's ads than Saxby's ads.
Oh, and just for some added inspiration. Re-watch this and just see if it doesn't piss you off.
Its time to pay this bastard back.
