To: Date: Mon, 23 Jun 2008 17:49:47 -0400 Subject: Boehner/Mario Diaz-Balart Lunch - Wed. 6/25/08 I am sorry for the late notice, but I wanted to make sure you saw the invitation for Congressman Mario Diaz-Balarts fundraiser this Wednesday, June 25 th with special guest House Republican Leader John Boehner at the Monocle. Your consideration of the lunch would be greatly appreciated, as we need your support now more than ever. The invitation is below.
In case you missed it, below is the press release that the DCCC put out last week on Congressman Mario Diaz-Balarts race today. Marios race was placed into the DCCC's highly competitive Red to Blue program. The Congressmans opponent, Joe Garcia, raised more than $300,000 last quarter by surrounding himself with a well known group of advisors including Joe Trippi.
Thanks, CjF

DCCC Unveils Red To Blue Candidates for Change The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee announced today the next round of candidates who earned a spot in the DCCC's highly competitive Red to Blue program. These 14 candidates qualified for the third round of the Red to Blue program by surpassing demanding fundraising goals and skillfully demonstrating to voters that they stand for change and will represent new priorities when elected to Congress. The DCCC also released a list of 20 emerging races, where Democratic candidates are running strong campaigns that are generating excitement in their districts. "The candidates for change being named to the DCCC Red to Blue program are running strong campaigns and are committed to making things easier for middle class families in their districts," said Chris Van Hollen, Chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. "With less than five months to make their case for change to voters in their districts, the Red to Blue program will give these candidates the financial and structural edge to be even more competitive in November." Chairman Van Hollen joined Red to Blue co-chairs Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL), Artur Davis (D-AL), and Bruce Braley (D-IA) to announce 14 candidates who qualified for the Red to Blue program: Ethan Berkowitz (AK-AL) Paul Carmouche (LA-04) Gerry Connolly (VA-11) Joe Garcia (FL-25) Martin Heinrich (NM-01) Ann Kirkpatrick (AZ-01) Frank Kratovil (MD-01) Bob Lord (AZ-03) Betsy Markey (CO-04) Raul Martinez (FL-21) Mike McMahon (NY-13) Glenn Nye (VA-02) Harry Teague (NM-02) Dina Titus (NV-03) You are Cordially Invited to a Lunch Honoring
