Bruning Turning Attacks into Fund Raising Opportunity

In our 'We Get E-mail' category today we get one from Newsmax that comes from Jon Bruning's campaign.   Apparently, given the thermometer, the attacks are still helping Bruning raise money.

Of course, the hit pieces continue in the Omaha World-Herald today with Don Stenberg's comments about the Bruning riches and friends.   We still don't know where this is going but we'd say Deb Fischer is wise to refrain from commenting.  

With all this commotion one sometimes recalls the old adage, "Be careful what you wish for."  Nelson/Johnson/Democrat Party may ultimately find themselves wondering what they expected to come of this.....

Here's the Newsmax e-mail

Dear Newsmax Reader, This week Ben Nelson sent out a vicious fundraising letter to 10,000 Democrats attacking Jon for his outspoken claims against government spending and Obamacare. This was followed by two hit pieces in Nebraska papers and more ugly vitriol from the bowels of DC by the head of the Democratic Senatorial Committee. I have to ask: since when did saving taxpayer dollars become a bad thing? We need your help to fight these attacks today! If Ben Nelson and his peers in Washington feel no shame raising money against Jon's unabashed fight against overspending and fraud in DC then we feel no shame for affirming our position: the federal government is out of control and Ben Nelson needs to go! Will you join me today and make a donation of $25. Help us reach our goal of raising $20,000 before the end of August. We have just one week to go.  Our federal debt will drown us all unless we unseat Ben Nelson. Ben Nelson's votes for Obamacare and big government spending just don't align with Nebraska values, and neither do his politics. These desperate actions show just how out of touch Ben Nelson and his political machine are with Nebraska voters, who time and time again have rejected dirty politics like this. As sad as these actions are, they are predictable and we expect more of them. Ben Nelson and the Washington establishment backing him are focused on Jon because they must be hearing the same thing Jon hears as he travels the state - Nebraskans are disappointed with Ben Nelson's style of politics and are demanding new leadership, and Jon is poised to provide that leadership next November. Join us today and make a small donation to help us defeat these attacks. Thank you for your support, Trent Fellers, Campaign Manager P.S. Please consider making a donation today. We have one week left in the summer and we need to hit our goals! Click here to make a donation today.
