Jason, I'm going to pull back the curtain and give you a glimpse of what running for such a competitive seat is like. For starters, it means getting followed around and heckled by random men/political "trackers," like the one below who followed me last week. |
Then, every single thing I say is spun and taken out of context by groups like the NRCC, in hopes of weakening my support in Alaska. And lastly, running in such a competitive race means that the airwaves are about to be blanketed with attack ads against me, laying the groundwork for my defeat. Jason, I'll be honest: The smear campaigns and dirty politics sting. But the truth is, that's the price for representing Alaska in Congress, and I'll never back down from standing up for my state. I refuse to play the gross games and run the smear campaigns that my opponents and the special interests are playing. But I still need to fight back. So please Jason, will you split $25 between the Alaska Democratic Party and me before midnight so I can fend off these constant attacks and win in November? >> |
Counting on you! -- Mary Peltola |
