Greetings Davis Democratic Club Members,

The following e-mail is from Bill Ritter, current member of the DDC Board
and former DDC President.

****************************************************************

Dear Fellow Democrats:

Charlie Brown is being "swiftboated" by his 
opponent the carpetbagging Tom McClintock.  This 
is a race we have a chance of winning.  If anyone 
can spare $25, $50, $100 or more please send it 
to the Brown for Congress Campaign to help them 
to fight back with their own TV & radio ads.

Thanks,
Bill Ritter

Charlie Brown for Congress

Dear Willis,

It's been a rollercoaster of a week-and I'm not 
just talking about the stock market.

On Monday, Charlie and I became grandparents for 
the first time.   We were so happy, so proud, 
and so elated that our son Jeff- who will soon 
return for his fifth rotation in Iraq ---was 
actually able to be there with his growing 
family at this important time.   Many military 
families are not so lucky---something Charlie 
and I learned first hand when our daughter Stacey was born.

EWAVdSAJVC04CWlYEXA%3D%3D> 
Lifelong Politician Tom McClintock would know 
nothing about this kind of sacrifice.

So on Tuesday, when McClintock launched his 
sleaziest attack yet, we were no 
surprised.   Predictably, he regurgitated some 
of John Doolittle's 2006 talking points in a 
pathetic effort to smear Charlie's patriotism-by 
mail, radio, and swift boat style TV ads.

WlYEXA%3D%3D>Our 
new TV ad in response is already up ---but we 
need your help to keep it on the air.

McClintock's latest attack only shows that he is 
part of the same old problem in Washington-- a 
hyper-partisan mudslinger who never served and 
would rather attack veterans than actually do 
something to help them.  The truth is, Tom 
McClintock has made a career of voting against 
earned benefits for veterans, and even financial 
support for the widows of Californians killed in 
action .  And t! hat' s not all--

For the next 47 days, we are going to make sure 
every 4 th District voter knows the truth, the 
choice, and the sharp contrast between my 
husband and Tom McClintock.   But to do that, we 
are going to need your continued support right now.

There are so many important issues in this 
election---the war, the economy, gas prices and >healthcare.   Tom
McClintock's smear tactics 
aren't solving any problems, and they certainly 
aren't helping our troops-they are part of the problem in Washington.

So I'm asking you to stand with us once again. 
We are going to win this race and we are going 
to bring change to Washington. But we need your 
<http://www.charliebrownforcongress.org/lists/lt.php?id=cUVTVw0EWAVcSAJVC04C
WlYEXA%3D%3D>help 
- right now - to fight back.

We must make sure that lifelong politicians who 
vote against helping veterans don't win 
campaigns by "swiftboating" those who served.

Please take a moment and make a 
<http://www.charliebrownforcongress.org/lists/lt.php?id=cUVTVw0EWAVcSAJVC04C
WlYEXA%3D%3D>contribution 
right now. Help us fight back. We have prepared 
for this moment for three years and now is! the tim e to make our stand.

Thank you so much,



Jan Brown

P.S.  We are 12 days from our last quarterly FEC 
Deadline before the election.  Please make your 
stand now and 
<http://www.charliebrownforcongress.org/lists/lt.php?id=cUVTVw0EWAVcSAJVC04C
WlYEXA%3D%3D>help 
Charlie fight back with a contribution of $250, 
$100, $50, or the largest contribution you can afford today.

Please circulate this with the DDC list 
serve.  No doubt the recent polls showing Charlie 
Brown leading in the race has caused the "swiftboating" from McClintock.

Thank you,

Bill Ritter

</div>
Roseville</font>:</i>  With less than two months to go before the
November election, Retired USAF Lt. Col. Charlie Brown has released
recent polling showing him leading Southern California politician Tom
McClintock 43-41, and widening his lead to nearly double digits when
voters were presented with the positive attributes of each
candidate.<br>
<font face="Times New Roman, Times" size=2> <br>
The survey of 500 likely General Election voters was conducted by the
Benensen Strategy Group from August 21<sup>st</sup>-24th, with a margin
of error of +/- 4.38%.  <br>
 <br>
Beyond Brown’s advantage on an initial ballot and following positive
contrasts of each candidate, the poll reveals that Brown enjoys a higher
net favorability rating than McClintock---despite the fact that
McClintock is a better known career politician who has run for Statewide
office four times.  Brown, who is a career military officer, has
also built a 29 point advantage among Independents while capturing nearly

race, and it’s why so many people of all political stripes have joined
Charlie’s campaign to put patriotism before
partisanship.”    <br>
</i> <br>
Of particular note in Brown’s latest polling is that in his 2006 race
against current 4<sup>th</sup> District Rep. John Doolittle, Benensen
Strategy Group had surveyed the 4<sup>th</sup> District at almost the
exact same time---giving Doolittle a 41-39 edge in a race Doolittle won
by a similarly narrow margin (49-46).<br>

Re:       Poll of Congressional District 4
Voters<br>
 <br>
</font>Ret. USAF Lt. Col. <font face="Trebuchet MS" size=2>Charlie Brown
has an excellent opportunity to pick up the Congressional seat vacated by
scandal-plagued retiring Republican John Doolittle, as Charlie Brown is
leading his Republican opponent with just two months until the
election.  This is despite the fact that McClintock has previously
run for (and lost) four prior bids for statewide office.  Brown
narrowly lost in 2006 against incumbent John Doolittle.  He is
currently in a stronger position against McClintock than he was at this
stage of the 2006 campaign. <br>
 <br>
<b>Mood of the Electorate<br>
</b> <br>
Two thirds of voters believe the nation is headed off on the wrong track

direction of the country and Washington’s bickering and are ready for
change.  <br>

In September of 2006, Brown trailed Doolittle by a 41% to 39% margin and
eventually lost by a similar 49% to 46% margin.  This time Brown
enjoys a 2% advantage over McClintock even though McClintock is better
known than Brown due to his previous statewide campaigns and recent
high-profile and fractious GOP primary.  Brown receives 43%,
McClintock 41%, and 15% are undecided.  <br>
 <br>
Brown’s 2% lead is even more notable, given the fact that McClintock
enjoys a residual name identification advantage from his numerous
statewide bids for office.  Brown leads by 29% among Independents -
the swing voters in the 2008 election, and he even captures 17% of the
Republican vote.<br>

<i>The Benenson Strategy Group conducted 500 interviews in California
Congressional District 4 with likely 2008 general election voters August
21 – 24, 2008. The margin of error is ±4.38%.<br>
 <br>
The Benenson Strategy Group’s clients include Governor Tim Kaine (VA),
Senator Jim Webb (VA), and Barack Obama’s campaign for President. Peter
Brodnitz, who conducted this survey, was named “Pollster of the Year” by
the American Association of Political Consultants last year for his work
for Kaine, Webb and the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee. 
It is a bi-partisan award given to one pollster every two years. <br>
