Actually, it is.

Drew —

I’ve been in politics for a while now, but I’ve never seen anything quite like this.

A group of freshmen senators are running the show in the Republican Party — that is not hyperbole.

You should see what these guys are doing now. They’re asking their Republican colleagues to sign a pledge to shut down the federal government unless we defund Obamacare.

Now these aren’t bad guys, but I want you to think about this: not only are they still trying to get rid of health care reform — they’re willing to use the entire federal government as a bargaining chip to get it done.

That’s what we’re dealing with in Washington right now, and it’s unprecedented in my lifetime.

Make no mistake — one thing we don’t need is to let the Republicans outrun us in 2014, and elect a bunch more people to the House and Senate who think, act, and vote the way Ted Cruz and Rand Paul do.

Chip in $10 or more right now and help build the organization that’s going to stop these guys:

Thanks,

P.S. — I’m serious about this
