Dear XXXXXXXXX,
If you want to prevent the next Samuel Alito from being confirmed to the Supreme Court, then you need to help the DSCC and me elect a Democratic Senate in November.
We need you to make an immediate investment in our campaign today so we can withstand the Republicans' Swift Boat-style distortions and character attacks that are sure to come. I know that we can win in November, but only if we can count on your support today and all the way through Election Day. Your help is crucial. Please make a contribution right now.

I know what's at stake. I helped lead the fight against Samuel Alito's confirmation to the Supreme Court because he has consistently made it harder for the poorest and most vulnerable Americans to have their days in court. He routinely defers to excessive government power, even in light of the most extreme abuses of that power. The only thing he has ever said about a woman's right to privacy is that she doesn't have one.
Trying to defeat Alito's nomination in a Republican-dominated Senate proved impossible, but the final vote total shows something important. 54 Republican senators - a Senate majority - voted for the nominee. 40 Democratic senators voted against him. The difference between a Republican-controlled Senate and a Democratic Senate could not be clearer. We have to change those numbers as soon as possible.
The DSCC is working hard to change that balance of power in Washington. As of today, Democratic Senate candidates are running strong campaigns against Republican incumbents in key battleground states like Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Missouri.
However, in each of those states, the Republican incumbent has a larger campaign war chest than our Democratic challenger. The DSCC's job is to level that playing field. I know we can win in those key states and take back the Senate in November, but only if the DSCC can count on your support every step of the way. Please make a contribution before it's too late.

Electing a Democratic Senate is the only way to prevent George Bush from putting more judges like Antonin Scalia and Samuel Alito on the Supreme Court. But if we're going to succeed, the DSCC urgently needs your help. Please make a contribution right now.
Sincerely,
John Kerry
