Ronnie Cho, Maine's Campaign for Change Field Director, sent this message out this morning:
John McCain is making a final push for Maine—and he's committed to a negative campaign designed to distort Barack's record with false attacks. That means now is the time to fight back by making this the biggest get out the vote effort in Maine history. We need to prove that what we've built is real and can deliver the change America needs. Together, we've talked with thousands of undecided Mainers and organized our communities to make real change happen. But all of this work means nothing if we don't get people out to vote. Sign up today to talk with voters and help Barack bring the change we need. We have the chance to make history here in Maine. This is your opportunity to be a part of it—our plan won't work without you. What you do—or don't do—in the next week will decide the outcome of this race. If you agree that we can't afford four more years of George Bush's failed policies and politics, now is the time to stand up and demand change. Sign up and do your part to bring this campaign across the finish line: http://me.barackobama.com/gotvme We've worked too hard to let this slip through our fingers—it's time to put this country back on track. Thanks, Ronnie
If you've recently received a vicious robocall or mailer, you're not alone.The McCain Campaign has recently launched another round of these false, dangerous attacks in battleground states across the U.S.—despite his own colleagues, including Maine Senator Susan Collins, warnings to change his tone.
Mainers are saying enough and fighting these dishonorable campaign tactics.
Don't let these under-the-radar fear tactics continue to spread, visit Radar.BarackObama.com to report attacks and find the facts about smears you've heard.
Maine voters are facing issues too important to allow this election to be focused on character attacks and fear tactics.
Visit Radar.BarackObama.com and fight back today.
At a press conference today, Mainers denounced McCain's dishonest robo calls that are being made to Maine residents.

Mainers Call on McCain to Stop False Smears and Focus on the Economic Issues Facing Maine Families.
BANGOR, ME – Mainers denounced the dishonorable and dishonest robo calls that the McCain campaign is making to Maine residents today, and called on McCain to stop the negative smears and focus on the critical economic issues facing Maine families. The campaign also urged Mainers to report negative calls to www.fightthesmears.com/report.
Governor Palin will be campaigning in Maine for the first time tomorrow. Representative Hannah Pingree just sent out the following email asking supporters to respond by writing a letter to the editor of their local paper:
With Governor Palin making her first visit to campaign in Maine this week, we need you to speak out and share Barack's message with your community. In this struggling economy, Barack Obama and Joe Biden will make real change happen for Mainers. They will deliver tax relief for Maine families, strengthen the economy, and find real solutions to the energy crisis. They offer the leadership we need at this important moment in our nation's history. Not only will they work for middle class families here in Maine, they will bring real change to Washington and create opportunities for all hardworking Americans to get ahead. That's why it's so important that you help spread the word about Barack—who he is and where he stands on the issues that matter most to Mainers. Write a letter to the editor today and show the strength of our Campaign for Change. Maine is an important battleground state that could be the deciding factor in this race for the White House. With fewer than three weeks until Election Day it's going to take all of us working together to share Barack's message—not only in our neighborhoods but all across Maine. As president, Barack Obama will end tax breaks for companies that ship jobs overseas, and cut taxes for small businesses and companies that create jobs here in Maine. And under Obama's plan, middle class families will face the lowest income tax rates in more than 50 years. But we need your help to put that plan into action. You can make a difference right now by writing a letter to the editor of your local paper and sharing with your community why Barack is right on the economy, right on energy, and right for Maine. http://me.barackobama.com/YourVoiceME We can't do this without you. Thank you, Hannah Representative Hannah Pingree Maine House Majority Leader
