Elephants.

I've always said politics is like the circus: the worst job is cleaning up after the elephants. We're just beginning to find out how true that is.
President Obama has done more good in just 8 weeks than George Bush did in his entire 8 years, but you and I both know it's going to take longer than that to clean up the Republicans' mess - especially with a whole herd of 'em in the Senate willing to filibuster change at every chance.We need every last Democratic vote to overcome their obstruction. That's why the DSCC is fighting so hard to get to 60 Senate seats. It's the best way we can help President Obama change this country.

Even with Republicans trying to block him at every step, President Obama has already expanded health care for kids and moved mountains to try to put our economy back on sound footing.Imagine how much more President Obama could do without Republicans throwing sand in the gears.If you help the DSCC win 60 Democratic Senate seats, Barack Obama can truly deliver on universal healthcare, better education and a real plan to get us off foreign oil.

Folks, I'm sorry to say it. These Senate Republicans just can't be helped. They're just too beholden to Rush and the rest of the right-wing fringe.We have to clean out as many as we can in this next election.

Let's get to work.

Sincerely,

James Carville
