Day: November 12, 2014

Jason330, We screwed up. But here is the good news – starting today we aren’t taking any money from banks or finical services industries. None. Nothing. We now realize that working to protect the profits of banks doesn’t serve the interest of the working class Americans who have always been the backbone of the party. So from now on, the DNC will turn away all money from banks so that we can get back to being the party that looks out for the little guy. That will put us in a fundraising bind, so we will need to depend on people like you to help get the message out. You are the Democratic Party’s biggest asset. Thanks for considering a donation to help return the Democratic Party to its core values. Sincerely, Joe Biden

Jason330, I've been through a lot of elections, Jason330, and it's a simple fact that you're not going to win them all. No matter how hard you work, sometimes things don't turn out the way you want them to. But I hope you won't listen to any of the people who are saying that what happened on one Tuesday night in November changed everything -- because they are wrong. Nothing changed the fact that there are millions of Americans counting on us to create good middle-class jobs, and build better schools for our children. It didn't change that we still have a lot of work to do together, and two full years to do it. So I want you to stay committed, keep your head up, and invest in the future of our party. If you've saved your payment information, your donation will go through immediately. Thank you, Jason330 -- I mean it. Folks like you have always been the Democratic Party's biggest asset, and there's nothing that's going to change that either. Joe
