Bill Clinton signed an email letter encouraging Hillary supporters to donate to her campaign.
Here's the full text:
Dear Friend:
Here's the most important thing you need to know about this race: it's neck-and-neck.
Only 130 delegates separate Hillary from Senator Obama -- and that's not counting Florida and Michigan. The difference in popular vote is less than 1 percent, and millions of voters have yet to make their voices heard. This election should be about their choice.
But now we're hearing people -- elected officials, party members, and Obama campaign surrogates -- call for Hillary to pull out.
With the race this close, it sure doesn't make sense to me that she'd leave now -- does it make sense to you?
There's no better way to tell Hillary that you support her staying in than to make a contribution to her campaign -- and no better time to contribute than right now.
We're facing a big deadline on Monday. Our opponents and the media will scrutinize our fundraising reports and look for any sign of weakness. By making a contribution today, you can help make sure we show nothing but strength.
I know that Hillary never forgets exactly why she is running. Her commitment to the people of this country never wavers.
At this critical moment, all of us supporting Hillary must make sure we are just as focused as she is. With all the talk of the state of the race, all the people telling her she should just give up, you and I must make sure she has everything she needs to stay in this race.
With our big fundraising deadline coming up midnight Monday, we need to show the critics and the doubters that this campaign is running full steam ahead with the determination to win.
My family isn't big on quitting. Hillary's in this race to win, and she's in it thanks to you.
Signed,
Bill Clinton
