IOWA - JONI ERNST MUST DEFEAT LIBERAL PROGRESSIVE

Fellow Conservatives:

I was just in Des Moines, Iowa to speak at the Family Leadership Summit and I wanted to give you a report of the U.S. Senate race there.

It's one of the most competitive races in the country and it could determine whether the Democrats continue to control the Senate.

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) knows this, which is why he and his liberal allies are on the air right now attacking Joni Ernst (R-IA) with negative, dishonest TV ads.

The ads claim that Joni supports shipping jobs overseas because she signed a pledge not to raise taxes. It's completely bogus.

Higher taxes chase investment out of our country, not the other way around. Even the left-leaning Politifact rated these attacks as "False."

We need your immediate help. If conservatives like you don't take action right now, this race could slip away.


This race is very close. A new Rasmussen poll shows it tied 43-43.

Joni's hard-fought primary left her campaign war chest empty and that’s made her a sitting duck for the Democrats’ carpet bombing.

Harry Reid's super PAC is running ads that are ripping Joni to pieces right now. That's why we need an emergency donation from you TODAY.

Your response to this email will help us respond to these smears and help us tell voters the truth about Bruce Braley (D-IA), her liberal opponent.

Please support Joni Ernst now.

The Democrats are attacking her for two simple reasons.

First, they know this race could determine who controls the Senate.

Republicans need to flip 6 seats to win the Senate and the polling right now says they will pick up exactly 6 seats. But if they lose any of these races or if Senator Mitch McConnell loses in Kentucky, then the Senate would be 50-50 with Vice President Joe Biden casting tie-breaking votes.

This is why Joni Ernst poses such a threat to the Democrats. If she wins, she could be the candidate who fires Harry Reid.

Everything hinges on this seat so please help now.

Second, they know she's a strong conservative.

As a state senator, she supported the largest tax cut in Iowa history, fought to limit government, and cut job-killing red tape. She has an "A" rating from the NRA, Iowa Right to Life has endorsed her, as has Sarah Palin.

As a Lt. Colonel in the Iowa National Guard, she commanded the largest battalion in Iowa. In 2003, she served as a company commander during Operation Iraqi Freedom. She knows the face of evil and, unlike Obama, she won’t waver to protect America.

As a mother, she knows that our pro-life and pro-marriage values are under attack by runaway courts where judges legislate from the bench. She could keep Obama's radical nominees from being confirmed.

Now do you see why Joni Ernst scares the Democrats so much and why they are bent on destroying her?

Please help us slam the brakes on President Obama’s far-left agenda.

Your support will help us pay for voter contact mail, phone banking, Internet micro-targeting, and hard-hitting radio and TV ads.

The more you can give right now, the more SCF can do to defend conservative Joni Ernst and expose liberal Bruce Braley.

Thank you for being willing to fight for America's future.

Sincerely,

Ken Cuccinelli II
President, Senate Conservatives Fund
Former Attorney General of Virginia
