Steve Blythe Candidate US House FL-15
Recently, I was contacted by Jeremy L. Barlow, Esq., a volunteer Internet organizer who has created a website designed to help my campaign and other Democratic candidates for Congress running against Republican incumbents. The effort is an interesting one which hopes to raise $1 million for my campaign, as well as $1 million for each of 99 other Congressional candidates and $5 million for each of 20 Senatorial candidates challenging for seats currently held by Republicans.
Mr. Barlow's goal for the website is to build a list of 1 million small donors willing to contribute $1 to each of the Congressional candidates and $5 to each of the Senate candidates for a total of $200 from each contributor and a grand total of $200 million.
Mr. Barlow has asked for my help in making the initial launch of this site a success at generating free online publicity with several content aggregator sites which use social bookmarking to determine which sites are popular.
I ask for your help with this effort. In order to generate buzz, Congressional Revolution launches TODAY, December 15, 2007 at 2 PM Eastern time.
What I need you to do is become a member of the following social bookmarking services if you are not already, so that you can help with the effort:
http://www.digg.com...
http://www.reddit.com...
http://www.stumbleupo...
http://del.icio.us...
Because this effort requires a coordinated launch time for our supporters to help elevate the website to the most popular pages of those services, PLEASE DO NOT VISIT THE FUNDRAISING SITE BEFORE 2PM EASTERN TIME, located at
http://www.congressio...
It is my understanding that several other candidates and their campaigns are sending a similar email to their supporters. Mr. Barlow is sending a similar email to his friends and family to lay the groundwork for a successful launch.
However, in order for this launch to be successful and generate much needed publicity to help with the effort, this really needs your support, so please make time this afternoon to help.
You should also join the website's email newsletter to help show that there is real support for this effort. In addition to the website, the organizer has prepared a video posted to a YouTube channel associated with the website. I would ask those of you who are not members of YouTube to sign up for a YouTube account to help with an additional effort to generate some free online publicity for this effort at
http://www.youtube.co...
Please be sure to watch the video at the channel, rate it a 5 stars, comment on it, share it with your friends and subscribe to the channel to help get it onto several of the YouTube lists which will help generate further online publicity for this effort.
Mr. Barlow also created Facebook and Myspace pages linked from the website. If you are a member of those social networking sites, I encourage you to make those pages your friend and include them among your top friends to help with the publicity efforts for the site. The MySpace page is located at

The Facebook page is located at

Please share this message and the details of this important effort with your friends and family members who are likely to be supportive of the cause.
Thank you very much for participating in this important form of viral democracy. Our opponents lag Democrats in their use of the Internet but they are gaining on us fast.
Congressional Revolution can help us regain our decisive advantage but it only works with your help.
Thank you in advance for your help with this effort.

Sincerely,

Steve Blythe -your 15th District Congressional Candidate
