Help build our Democratic team

The 2006 elections may still be over a year away, but the Democratic Party has already reached a critical juncture.
Right now is the moment when candidates must decide if they will run for office next year. If we're going to put more Democrats in office in 2006, we have to do everything we can to recruit and support the strongest possible candidates and help them get their message out today.
We certainly need solid candidates to run for the U.S. Senate and House, but we also need a farm team to prepare for the future. So we need to be supporting candidates at the state and local level, too, where these candidates can make a huge impact while gaining the experience and credibility they need to move up to higher office.
That's why I spent several days over the last weeks in Iowa and Wisconsin helping local Democrats raise the money we need to be competitive.
Already, I am excited by what I see. Democrats are energized, and they know that 2006 is going to be a critical pick-up year for us. I am going to do everything I can to recruit strong candidates and give them the resources they need to get their message out and win. But I can't do that without your help.
This past Monday, I was in Alabama, supporting the state Democratic Party and the Alabama House Democratic Caucus. Over the next week, I will be attending events for the Oklahoma and Arkansas Democratic Parties and campaigning for two of the most important races this fall: Senator Jon Corzine's race for New Jersey Governor and Lt. Governor Tim Kaine's race for Virginia Governor.
With your support, we are having an impact. But I need your help to continue supporting and building a leadership team for Democrats that will lead us into the future.

I hope to see you on the campaign trail over the next 12 months. But please, take a moment to act right now. This is our best chance to build the team we will need to win in 2005, 2006, and beyond.
Sincerely,
Wes Clark
