Got this from the Foster campaign yesterday:<\/p>\n

Dear Steve,<\/span><\/p>\n

Last night, Bill was on stage for the final debate with Congresswoman Biggert.\u00a0<\/span>\"$10,000<\/a><\/p>\n

With just 12 days to go \u2013 and the polling tied \u2013 Bill delivered a big win. \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Time and again, Congresswoman Biggert was unable to explain her rationale for policies that would hurt the middle class.\u00a0 When asked about her plan to \u201cvoucherize\u201d Medicare she didn\u2019t want to \u201cget down into the nitty gritty.\u201d \u00a0Viewer questions on her vote against the Dream Act and Obamacare reduced her to incoherent ramblings and half-remembered talking points.<\/span><\/p>\n

But we all know that very few undecided voters will actually watch the debate.\u00a0 Earlier this week, we asked you to step up and help us keep our TV ad on the air.\u00a0 We are closing in on our grassroots goal and only need to raise another $10,000 by Friday for our final TV buy of the campaign.<\/span><\/p>\n

Can you chip in $35, $50, $150 or whatever you can afford to help us reach our goal?<\/a><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

Last week Congresswoman Biggert ducked out of a debate sponsored by AARP, because she is unable or unwilling to defend her votes to end Medicare\u2019s guaranteed benefit and privatize Social Security.\u00a0 Along with her allies, she is now retreating behind a barrage of false personal TV attack ads.\u00a0 We have been only partially successful at convincing TV stations to take these lies off of the air.\u00a0 So we need to fight back \u00ad\u2013\u00a0and we need your help to keep our ad on the air.<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Thanks<\/span><\/p>\n

\nP.S. With just 24 hours until our media buy deadline we are closing in on our grassroots goal. Can you chip in $35, $50, $150 or whatever you can afford right now?<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n
