Marlin Stutzman and the Senate Conservatives Fund


“Dear Friend

Something very important is happening right now in the state of Indiana that will impact you and your family for years to come.

A young, fourth-generation family farmer is running a come-from-behind campaign for the United States Senate.

The candidate’s name is Marlin Stutzman. He’s a husband, a father, a small businessman, and—most importantly—a constitutional conservative.

Marlin’s got an uphill fight in the Republican primary against a former Senator and a former Congressman. But as we have seen with Marco Rubio in Florida, voters are looking for new Republicans who will fight for their values.

I am proud to announce the endorsement of the Senate Conservatives Fund for Marlin Stutzman in Indiana.

Marlin is running for the U.S. Senate because he knows we cannot change Washington unless we begin to change the people we send to Washington.

Marlin can win this race but he cannot do it alone. The question I have for you today is this: Will you help him?

I know Marlin Stutzman is the kind of leader who won’t let us down. After meeting him last year, I was inspired by his genuine desire to save his country from the massive spending, bailouts, and debt that the Democrats and—I’m sad to say—some Republicans have forced upon us.

Marlin Stutzman is rock-solid on the issues.

1) He supports full repeal of President Obama’s health care takeover;

2) He supports a Constitutional Amendment to force Congress to balance the budget without raising taxes;

3) He strongly opposes the earmarks, which have turned Congress into a massive favor factory for special interests; and

4) He is 100% pro-life and strongly supports our 2nd Amendment rights to keep-and-bear arms.

Marlin Stutzman isn’t the biggest name in this Senate race, but he has a big heart and big ideas—and that’s exactly what our country needs now more than ever.

Marlin is turning heads across Indiana as his grass roots campaign grows each day. And now he’s getting noticed by the Washington crowd, which is terrified of reform-minded leaders like Stutzman who will stand up to the establishment in both parties.

People voted for change in 2008 but they voted to change Washington, not to change America. It’s time to send a new generation of conservative leaders to Washington who will stand up and fight for the principles of freedom. It’s time to elect Marlin Stutzman in Indiana.

Make no mistake. Marlin Stutzman can win this race. He is surging in the polls and there is still time to elect a true conservative who will stand up to the establishment in both parties.

But you will need to answer this call to action. You simply cannot push it off to someone else.

I am doing my part and will be criticized by many of my colleagues in the Senate for helping someone other than their hand-picked candidate.”

“Dear Friends

I want to thank you all of you who have supported Marlin Stutzman’s campaign in Indiana this week. The response has been remarkable.

In just 48 hours, the Senate Conservatives Fund has raised over $80,000 to fuel Stutzman’s come-from-behind bid for the United States Senate.

This is a lot of money in a state where you can run a television ad statewide for about $30,000 per day. With just over a week to go until election day, we’ve given Stutzman’s campaign a major boost.

CNN reported yesterday that this money came at a ‘welcome time for Stutzman’ who is fighting to overcome two challengers who are better known in the state.

But there’s something the mainstream media and the Washington establishment don’t know about our effort.

We’re just getting started.

RedState.com reported today that Marlin Stutzman is the only candidate in the race with an A+ rating from the NRA. This is great news but it’s not all.

Marlin has been endorsed by Indiana Right to Life, by David Keene, the chairman of the American Conservative Union, and by conservative radio talk show host Mark Levin.

And, thanks to your support, Marlin’s first television ad is on the air and running strong.

This race is important to our future as a nation. We have a unique opportunity to join with thousands of grass roots conservatives in Indiana to elect a true leader to the Senate.

If he’s elected, Marlin Stutzman will join a new class of conservative stalwarts like Marco Rubio from Florida, Pat Toomey from Pennsylvania, and Ken Buck from Colorado. These men aren’t afraid to stand up to President Obama or the big-spending politicians in their own party.

Marlin Stutzman is exactly who we need fighting for our freedoms in Washington and he can win if we’re willing to fight for him.

Here’s what we need to do before the end of the week:

First, if you haven’t already given money or if you can give again, please contribute to Marlin Stutzman’s Senate campaign today. With your help, we can crack the $100,000 mark and keep building from there.

Second, please sign up to make phone calls for Marlin. Once you get a username and password, you can personally call voters in Indiana using your home computer.

I know this is a lot to ask but the future of our country is worth it.

Marlin and his wife, Christy, have put their lives on hold to run this campaign so they can pass on a better country to their two boys. Certainly we can give a little of our time and money to support them. And consider this: If everyone who opens this email were to contribute $25, we could raise over $1 million for Stutzman’s campaign, which would instantly overwhelm his opponents and guarantee his victory.

Likewise, if everyone who opens this email were to make just 10 phone calls for Stutzman’s campaign, we could reach every registered Republican in the State of Indiana—multiple times!

This would propel Marlin past his primary challengers and position him to win the seat for conservatives in November.

I want to thank each of you for being part of this movement to take back our country. I truly appreciate your support.

I also want you to know that if you’re not able to contribute financially right now or if you cannot volunteer, that is not a problem. I hope you keep your name on our list and continue to be part of our team.

Thanks again for your support. Let’s keep fighting.

Sincerely,

Jim DeMintUnited States SenatorChairman, Senate Conservatives Fund”
