Karl Rove is making a multimillion-dollar bet.
Posted: Fri Jul 27, 2012 11:37 amKarl Rove is making a multimillion-dollar bet.
His groups, American Crossroads and Crossroads GPS, think if they put enough money into misleading TV ads trashing President Obama, voters won't be able to see straight.
That's not all. They're also betting on $70 million as the magic number for taking control of the Senate. And they're pumping attack ads into House districts that could swing our way or theirs. Last month alone they spent millions of dollars attacking Governor Tim Kaine's Senate race in Virginia, along with other Democrats everywhere from New Mexico to Nebraska.
They're hoping we won't fight back. Too bad for them. We are. And we're doing it the right way: on the ground, with supporters telling their friends and neighbors the truth.
We're making a big bet -- on you.

For Democrats to keep making progress, it's critical that we re-elect President Obama.
And it's equally important to make sure we have a Congress that's no longer gridlocked by House Republicans.
We know what the last two years have been like in Congress. We can't sit on the sidelines and let that happen again.
Every time Karl Rove, the Koch Brothers, and other outside groups throw $5 million into a Senate race in Missouri, or $2 million into a House race in Illinois, they're hoping we'll just fold.
That's not how it's going to go down.
There are 102 days to go, and there couldn't be more on the line. Get in the fight today:
