Fired up, let's close it out!

Closing strong! Pick your cliche: This is it. Crunch time. It's now or never. Last chance.

Bottom line, the 2012 campaign is days from being over, and so is your chance to help deliver big progressive victories next Tuesday.

I'm not talking about those of you who are already doing your part donating or GOTVing. I'm talking to the rest of you. It's time to dig deep and chip in. It can be just a candidate or two. Don't wake up next Wednesday feeling like you could've done just a little bit more.

We'll either have the White House, an upgraded Senate, and a larger Democratic caucus in the House, or we won't. And we'd all rather have the former rather than the latter. So do a little bit more.

We've compiled our own list of winnable races featuring solid progressive candidates. Our Speaker Pelosi Project seeks to get us back in the majority. We'll have an infinitely better Senate if we elect the candidates on our Upgrade the Senate page. We can help make marriage equality a reality for our heroes fighting for it in Maine, Maryland, Minnesota, and Washington, via our Daily Kos for Marriage Equality page. And of course, there's the top of the ticket with President Barack Obama.

Pick one or more of these campaigns, or look at our full Orange to Blue list here. Or if your favorite campaign isn't on our lists, give to that campaign directly. Just give.

You guys have been incredibly generous to date. A sampling of how we've helped various candidates:

Total raised: $3.012 million
Elizabeth Warren: $384,450
Tammy Baldwin: $148,939
Barack Obama: $88,091
Sherrod Brown: $86,669
Chris Murphy: $88,192
Mazie Hirono: $71,163
Ami Bera: $32,356
Joe Garcia: $28,413

That's not Super PAC billionaire money. That's people like you, collectively given $3, or $5 or $20. Together, we can provide serious help to candidates who have put themselves on the line for what we all believe.

We're all tired of this campaign cycle. We're all sick of Romney bullshit and polls and fundraising emails and everything that comes with an important, hard-fought campaign.

But we've got five days left. Let's make them count.
