Gov. Howard Dean: “Alan Grayson Deserves Your Support.

Alan Grayson was a terrific Congressman during the term he spent in Congress. As a freshman member of the House of Representatives, he changed the national debate on health care, and made it stick.

The Republicans have hated him for it ever since. They spent millions against him, to get him out of Congress in 2010. But now he's back.

Already, the Right Wing has spent five million dollars telling absolute lies about Alan on television. In fact, the ads are so bad that Politifact labeled them as "Liar, liar, pants on fire."

Alan is one of the smartest people in Congress. He tells the truth. Sometimes people don't like to hear the truth in politics. But boy, do they ever need it, up in Washington! What a bankrupt group of people!

We can have a good Congress. We can make it full of people like Alan Grayson. But we need your money to do it. The Right Wing is going to outspend us by a lot.

We don't need a lot of money, but we do need your $5 or $10 or $20 or $100, right now.

On the internet, go on Alan Grayson's site, and let's make this work.

This is a great country. But you can't make this a better country by teaching people to hate each other.

Alan Grayson is somebody who gets things done, stands up for what's right, and tells the truth. And boy, do we need people to tell the truth in Washington right now!

Sincerely,

Gov. Howard Dean

P.S. (from Alan's campaign) Alan Grayson has an FEC financial report deadline tomorrow. It's the last FEC report from his campaign that Karl Rove and the Koch Brothers will see before they decide where to spend all of their special-interest "sewer money." Right now, Alan Grayson really needs your help.
