Hi, Dennis here.

Thank you for your support. I'd like to give  you an update on the 2010 
general election. 

Now there are many  people out there who feel, "...well, Dennis, you don't 
have to worry.  You're in." Don't believe it! Because the fact of the matter 
is with the  recent Supreme Court ruling, which lets corporations spend 
unlimited  amounts of money to influence federal elections; we all better be 
very  concerned.

You know that I've been a leader in challenging the  military-industrial 
complex's desire to just keep us at war. It's not  just that peace is an 
imperative, but we need to change the way that we  relate to the rest of the 
world. And, in order to do that, we need to  challenge the hold, which people 
have on our economy. And I'm talking  about arms manufacture, arms 
expenditures. How our entire domestic  agenda is being usurped by a war machine. And 
I've been a voice to  challenge that.

I've also been a voice to challenge the bailouts  to Wall Street, and the 
bonuses as well. I've been there to raise  questions about why, in the world, 
are we subsidizing nuclear and coal  industries when that's not the path to 
sustainability; it's not the path  to a green economy. 

In light of my often singular role in the  Congress on these issues, I 
cannot rest easy and just assume that since  I'm in reasonably good shape that 
this election is in-the-bag.  

It's not! The only way that I can be assured that I'll continue  to serve 
in the United States Congress is if I have the kind of fund  raising network, 
of which you're a part, and make sure that I have the  resources to be able 
to conduct a vigorous campaign. And to send a  message to those who would 
look at Ohio's 10th District as being a plumb  ripe to be picked from the 
Congressional tree; that that's not going to  happen. Because you and people 
like you all over America, care enough to  contribute. 

But I'm going to ask you to do something else in  this election. And for 
those of you who are able to, I'm want to tell  you how important it is that 
you become not just part of our fund  raising network through your 
contributions; but I'm going to ask as many  of you as possible to engage with us in 
our fund raising. Not just  through contributions, which are extremely 
important, but to be a person  who actually helps us raise funds. Someone who will 
hold a fund raiser  at your home. Someone who will bring people together in 
your community.  

I want to enlist your help in expanding our fund raising network  in 
enabling all those who really care about an America that works for  everyone. In 
enabling people to know that there's someone in Congress  they can always 
count on. Someone who will be there to challenge the  insurance companies. 
Someone who will be there to challenge the banks.  Someone who will be there to 
challenge all those interests that are  trying to cheat the American people. 
And I will be there with your help.  Let's not take it for granted. 

So, in the weeks ahead, you will  be getting information about how you 
might be able to help. How you can  organize a fund raising party in your home. 
We don't need to raise  massive amounts of money from any one place; we need 
to raise a lot of  money from across the country through individual efforts 
such as you may  be able to participate in. When you can have a fund raiser 
in your home,  or at a community gathering. Sometimes I may be able to 
call-in or do a  video for the event and, in some cases, even show up 
personally.  

But, let me tell you, the guarantee that we have that this  Congressional 
seat will continue to belong to the people of Ohio's 10th  District and, 
through their good graces, continue to be a place where  people all over the 
United States can feel that their point of view is  being expressed. The only 
way that's going to happen is through your  continued efforts. 

So I ask you to make a contribution now. I  ask you to help send a message 
to Wall Street that this district is not  going to be for sale. That no 
matter how much corporations want to plan  to try to usurp a spokesperson for 
the people, that you're going to be  there to challenge that. That you'll be 
there with your efforts, with  your money and with your organizational skills 
to help us to continue to  stand up for the American people. 

Thank you so much for enabling  me to be in the United States Congress. 
Thanks to the people of the 10th  District for giving me the chance to serve. 
But let's prepare now for  the 2010 general election. Let's build a strong, 
unshakeable base of  financial support so that when any of these interest 
groups who now have  free-reign, unfortunately because it was a Supreme Court 
ruling, any of  those groups would look at Ohio's 10 District and say, "Off 
limits! This  one belongs to the people."

Thank you very much.
