According to Republican George Allen, ActBlue is a "special interest group" hellbent on keeping him from his rightful seat in the Senate.
ActBlue does serve an interest--the public interest. That's what has Mr. Allen so scared. The D.C. Republicans he wants to join are hard at work on a devil of a problem: how can Republicans keep the most fortunate Americans from paying their fair share of taxes, then accept massive, secret donations from those fortunate few, all without the rest of us finding out?
ActBlue threatens that scheme. We give ordinary Americans a voice that used to belong only to the wealthy and well-connected, and we do our business in the open. We're ruining the game played by George Allen, Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY), and Speaker Boehner (R-OH). We make it so that candidates don't have to go to the boardroom to get on the ballot, and that's why they're scared of us.
To keep it that way, we need your support. All it takes is a $15 recurring donation to ActBlue to ensure that we'll be there for you today, tomorrow and in 2012. So please:
