Elizabeth Warren thanks her supporters (video)

Elizabeth Warren’s money bomb

Very cool – just got this email from the Elizabeth Warren for Massachusetts campaign.

Virginia,

We are gaining strength every day, and Elizabeth's grassroots supporters are making it happen. But over these next 36 hours, it's more important than ever for you to join us and help make it happen too!

Tomorrow, on the same day Scott Brown officially kicks off his re-election campaign, we're launching our first ever Elizabeth Warren "money bomb." Already, thousands of supporters have pledged more than $300,000 -- pledges that become real contributions when that money bomb launches.

Will we raise $500,000 tomorrow? $1 million? Who knows.

All I know is that the ultimate success of tomorrow's money bomb, how much we end up raising, and the strength of our message is entirely in your hands.

Will you make your money bomb pledge of $25 or more now?

Only you can help us demonstrate that the momentum we have in this race is real, that we have the strength and resources to beat Wall Street and the big banks financing Brown's campaign. They've already helped him build a massive campaign war chest of more than $12 million -- twice what we have in the bank.

But tomorrow, if we can produce a big number on Scott Brown's big day, our money bomb will send a strong message that Elizabeth's supporters across Massachusetts and across the country are coming together to do something big.

That sense of togetherness is really important to Elizabeth, because she knows, that if we work together, we can win.

Will you make your money bomb pledge of $25 or more now to inspire fellow supporters to join us? Act now, and we'll automatically process your pledge tomorrow.

We all remember the day Scott Brown was elected one year and 364 days ago. We all know why he's trying to turn tomorrow's anniversary of his election into a powerful, symbolic day for himself and his campaign.

We need to show that on his big day, we're going to be the ones who step up with the huge grassroots support it's going to take to win this race.

Thanks for your support,

Mindy Myers

Surprise: Wall Street backs Scott Brown; opposes Elizabeth Warren

Greg Sargent at the Plum Line (Washington Post) on Wall Street's support of Scott Brown:

Wall Street executives have been quite open about the fact that they really, really don’t want to see Elizabeth Warren get anywhere near the Senate. And it looks like they’re about to ratchet up their efforts to help Scott Brown prevent it from happening — including the influential U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

The Center for Public Integrity reports today that Wall Street and K Street lobbyists are firing up the fundraising on behalf of Brown in a big way. The report quoted multiple big finance types saying Brown’s reelection campaign is crucial, and it noted — without sourcing — that the U.S. Chamber “will be engaged early and heavily in Massachusetts with ads.”

Well, it’s no wonder the 1 percent is up and arms. Watch this video from the Warren campaign:

Elizabeth Warren for Massachusetts raises $3.15 million!

 You heard it first here!

The following is a letter I just received from Elizabeth Warren for Massachusetts:

Virginia,

Our campaign to give working families a voice in Washington is just starting, but we are already gaining strong support from across Massachusetts and our nation. Today, I've got some great news to share, and I wanted you to be the first to know:

In the first few weeks of our campaign, we raised $3.15 million, and the overwhelming majority of those contributions -- 96 percent -- were $100 or less. More than 11,000 people here in Massachusetts contributed.

These are pretty amazing numbers for our first official finance report, raised in a very short period of time, so you can understand why I want to say thanks a million -- and more! -- for this remarkable support. I couldn't do it without you. 

With the big banks and special interests lining up against us, we know it's going to take a strong, grassroots campaign to win. In fact, did you see the headline in Politico a few weeks ago? Wall Street Readies Assault on Elizabeth Warren. The article says that the big banks and their legions of lobbyists are plotting "a strategy to hit hard," and they are "getting ready to pounce." We know they'll pay any price to try to stop us. 

That's why your support is more important than ever. I need you to help us build the strongest grassroots campaign we can by encouraging your friends and family to join us, too:

Forward this email and invite everyone you know to sign up at ElizabethWarren.com. 

Share with your friends on Facebook, or post an update on Twitter. 

However you do it, add to the momentum.

We are in this together. We are fighting back for the middle class families who are getting hammered here in Massachusetts and across the country. We are fighting for the future of America.  

Thank you for being a part of this.

Elizabeth Warren
