A MESSAGE FROM JOHN EDWARDS '08
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Dear Friend,

The press may be trying to spin this as a two-person race -- but
the voters in Nevada are saying differently.

According to the latest poll from the Reno Gazette-Journal, it's
a dead heat -- with the momentum moving in John Edwards'
direction.

Can you help us build on this momentum as we reach out to caucus
goers around the state? More than 500,000 caucus goers have been
contacted by thousands of volunteers over the past two months. 
Just this past weekend, 15,000 potential caucus attendees were
personally canvassed by volunteers from our campaign who fanned
out across the state.

The momentum is breaking John's way at exactly the right moment
-- but we need your help to put additional resources into Nevada
immediately.  Now is when it counts.  Please show your support
for John -- and help us pull off a strong finish in Nevada this
Saturday.

A strong finish in the Nevada caucuses means this is still a
three way race for the nomination.  It means the two $100
million candidates will be forced to compete on the issues that
matter, unable to buy the nomination with glitz and glamour.  

Your contribution helps us get the extra resources we need into
Nevada now, so we can maintain the momentum, expand our ground
operation -- and hold off any last minute desperate attacks from
the other candidates.

http://johnedwards.com/r/60173/1246934/

John has said that he intends to continue this campaign all the
way to the Democratic Convention, win the nomination and then on
to the White House.

A strong finish in Nevada will be an important step in that
journey for our campaign.  It will shock the pundits and reshape
the dynamics of this election.  

You can make the difference now.  Please take a moment and show
your support for John with a contribution to help us finish
strongly in Nevada this Saturday.

Sincerely,

A MESSAGE FROM JOHN EDWARDS '08
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Dear Friend,

The choice in this election is simple. If we want a president
who will lead America to the big, bold changes we need and
change the conversation in America, Democrats should choose the
candidate who has led the field in ideas and shaped the
conversation in this race so far.

In this campaign, John Edwards has led on the issues -- the other
candidates have merely followed.

But don't take it from me -- let me share with you some of the
things people are saying about John.

As Paul Krugman writes today in The New York Times:

   &quot;On the Democratic side, John Edwards, although never the
   front-runner, has been driving his party's policy agenda. He's
   done it again on economic stimulus: last month, before the
   economic consensus turned as negative as it now has, he proposed
   a stimulus package including aid to unemployed workers, aid to
   cash-strapped state and local governments, public investment in
   alternative energy, and other measures.&quot;

And as Christopher Hayes writes in The Nation:

   &quot;The fact remains that the Edwards campaign has set the domestic
   policy agenda for the entire field. He was the first with a
   bold universal health care plan, the first with an ambitious
   climate change proposal that called for cap-and-trade, and the
   leader on reforming predatory lending practices and raising the
   minimum wage to a level where it regains its lost purchasing
   power.&quot;

In this campaign, John Edwards has led the other candidates in
standing up for progressive change.

As Ezra Klein writes in The American Prospect:

   &quot;Much more so than Obama, it was Edwards who forced a new style
   of politics, untethered by the fear and timidity of the 90s,
   adamant that liberalism was an electoral boon and economic
   justice a popular sentiment. Knowing they had to defend against
   his challenge, both Hillary and Obama edged closer to his
   appeal.
   
   &quot;It left the Democrats in a much stronger position overall, and
   forced them to argue for, and commit to, a much broader and more
   inspiring agenda than we otherwise might have seen.&quot;

In this campaign, the other candidates have followed John's lead
in talking about the special interests -- but the special
interests understand the difference between rhetoric and
reality. That's why corporate lobbyists are united against John
Edwards.

As Kevin Drawbaugh reports for Reuters:

   &quot;Ask corporate lobbyists which presidential contender is most
   feared by their clients and the answer is almost always the same
   -- Democrat John Edwards. One business lobbyist said an Edwards
   presidency would be a 'disaster' for his well-heeled
   industrialist clients.
   
   'I think Hillary is approachable. She knows where a lot of her
   funding has come from to be blunt,' said Greg Valliere, chief
   political strategist at Stanford Group Co., a market and policy
   analysis group.&quot;

Want to help John's field-leading campaign for change? Then
please take a moment to forward these quotes on to your friends
and family who live in the 48 states that have yet to cast a
vote for the Democratic nominee. Tell them that you are
standing with John Edwards -- and ask them to join you.

Here's the bottom line in this election. We need a president
who has the vision to put forth bold, progressive solutions to
the challenges facing America in the 21st century. John Edwards
has shown he has that vision -- and he has led on it throughout
this campaign.

Thanks for taking action.

--Jonathan Prince
  Deputy Campaign Manager, John Edwards for President
  January 14, 2008

A MESSAGE FROM JOHN EDWARDS '08
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Dear Friend,

Just over a week ago, I was in Iowa, directing operations for
John Edwards as we came into the caucuses. Thanks to you -- and
thousands of folks like you -- we were able to finish strongly in
Iowa, beating out one of the $100 million celebrity candidates.

Immediately after Iowa, I came to South Carolina where I'm
helping to direct operations for John as we close in on the
January 26 primary.

Because I know, firsthand, how well you responded to my requests
for help with Iowa, I'm asking you to come through again for
South Carolina.

Click here to help secure victory in South Carolina
http://johnedwards.com/r/59574/1246934/

The race here is tight. The celebrity candidates are now
starting to recognize the importance of South Carolina -- John
always has. 

That's why, today, he's on a four-day bus tour across the state,
with his message of &quot;Bringing It Home&quot; being heard by
enthusiastic crowds everywhere. This past Thursday, more than
80 South Carolina elected officials and other community leaders
endorsed John for president. 

The challenge now, with just two weeks to primary day, is to
turn that momentum into people voting for John on January 26. 
Your contribution today will help us with our Get Out The Vote
ground operation in South Carolina:

  * $27 pays for drinks and snacks for volunteers working the
  phone banks over the next two weeks
  * $53 pays to blanket a neighborhood with literature to
  undecided voters
  * $75 helps us expand the reach of our broadcast spots
  * $102 pays for a van and fuel to help transport our
  volunteers as they go canvassing door-to-door

Click here to help secure victory in South Carolina
http://johnedwards.com/r/59575/1246934/

Every dollar you can give today can counter the efforts of the
other celebrity campaigns as they start to focus their attention
on South Carolina. Your contribution will make a difference for
the South Carolina primary on January 26.

Thank you for all you did for our efforts in Iowa -- I hope you
will come through for John Edwards in South Carolina as well.

Sincerely,

Jennifer O'Malley Dillon
Deputy Campaign Manager, John Edwards for President
January 12, 2008

A MESSAGE FROM JOHN EDWARDS '08
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Dear Friend,

John Edwards is taking his campaign to South Carolina, Nevada --
and on to the Democratic Convention, the nomination and the
White House. It's a fight we're going to win -- and I'm asking
you to help.

I'm challenging you to help us raise $1.8 million between now
and January 26, the day of the South Carolina primary. Your
support today allows John to keep fighting for the kind of
America that all of us believe in.

Click here to help raise $1.86 million by January 26
http://johnedwards.com/r/59365/1246934/ 

Over the past 10 days, thousands of new supporters have joined
this campaign and made a contribution. This new support is
helping to sustain John's message of change, standing up to
corporate greed and fighting special interests in Washington. 

I'm asking you to become one of those contributors today. This
is not the time to sit on the sidelines and simply wish for
change. Now is the time for people like you, who care about the
future of this country, to stand up and make a contribution to
John's campaign.

Click here to help raise $1.8 million by January 26
http://johnedwards.com/r/59366/1246934/

On Tuesday night, speaking in New Hampshire, John said, &quot;We know
exactly what we aspire to: universal health care, attacking
global warming, protecting the environment, ending poverty, and
standing up for American jobs and for the creation of American
jobs.&quot;

If, like me, you believe these are the issues that we need to be
fighting for, then it's time for you to join John and hundreds
of thousands of other supporters in this fight. You are not
alone and together we are a powerful wave of change sweeping
across this country.

Please make a contribution today toward our goal of $1.8 million
by January 26 -- your support will help make a difference.

Thanks for all you do.

--Joe Trippi
  Senior Advisor, John Edwards for President
  January 10, 2008 

P.S. And don't forget, with matching funds through public
financing, your contribution up to $250 can be doubled -- helping
us even more!

Dear Friend,

Two races down. Forty-eight states left to go. Today, 1% of
Americans have voted -- 99% have not. 

And those 99% deserve to have their voices heard, because I have
met too many Americans whose voices have not been heard in this
democracy. 

That's what this battle is all about -- and it's why I'm asking
you to continue standing with me as we take this fight all the
way to the Democratic convention and then on to the White House.

Click here to make a contribution:
http://johnedwards.com/r/59287/1246934/

We stand at a crossroads in American history -- and we know what
needs to be done. The only question is whether we have the
backbone, the will, and the determination to go there. I want to
be clear: I intend to be the nominee of our party.

That's why I'm asking you -- and your family and friends -- to
continue with us in this campaign to create the kind of America
all of us believe in. And as we do so, the millions of unheard
voices in our country will finally be heard.

Thank you for your support.

Sincerely,

John

A MESSAGE FROM SOUTH CAROLINA FOR JOHN EDWARDS '08
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - 

Dear Friend,

Earlier this morning, I took a call from our team in South Carolina. 
More than 50 people just arrived at campaign headquarters in
Columbia. They're ready to work for John Edwards from now until the 
South Carolina primary on January 26.

It's great news that we've added 50 new people to our South Carolina
operation. It shows, yet again, that John has considerable momentum
as he moves toward the next round of early contests. 

It also means we need to work quickly to ensure our folks on the
ground have all the resources they need so we can capture this
momentum and stay on the road to winning the nomination!

Please take a moment now to make a contribution for South Carolina. 
It will make a difference.

Thanks for your support -- John is counting on you!

A MESSAGE FROM JOHN EDWARDS '08
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Dear Friend,
 
Today, all across New Hampshire, thousands of volunteers and staff
members are working to get voters to the polls -- and we're expecting
a strong showing.

Over the past five days, the support you've provided to John has
been nothing short of wonderful. Because of your support, we have
the resources and momentum we need to take our campaign all the way
to the convention, win the nomination -- and then win the White
House. 

But it's a long road from here to victory and that's why, starting
today, we will be pouring more resources into the states that will
follow today's primary vote in New Hampshire.  

Can you help us move additional staff, volunteers and other
resources into the next key states, particularly Nevada and South
Carolina? We'll be moving in the next 24-hours -- so can you help us
raise $275,000 by midnight -- and make tomorrow moving day?

Click here to help us with moving day!

According to our estimates, we can save thousands of dollars by moving 
as much as we can over the next 24 hours, laying the groundwork and
expanding our operations for the contests in the coming months. As
you know, the farther in advance we can buy airline tickets, rent
cars and trucks, and get equipment shipped to where it needs to be,
the more money we can save.  

We're always trying to spend your contributions in the most
effective way -- this is one way to make your dollars go farther! 

Our accounting department calculates that $275,000 will help us get
our staff, volunteers and equipment to Nevada and South Carolina by
Thursday -- and put us in a good position to build on our momentum in
the contests beyond. Can you help us raise $275,000 to make
tomorrow &quot;moving day&quot;? 

Click here to help us with moving day!

John is the underdog in this race, competing against two celebrity
candidates with more than $200 million between them. But it's the
middle class who are the real underdogs -- and I've seen, firsthand,
John's determination to fight for them all the way.  When John
speaks for the middle class, he is unstoppable. When we stand with
him, the wave of change we create will be unstoppable too.

That's why I'm asking for your help to move our staff, volunteers
and other resources into the next critical early states by midnight
tomorrow. Will you help?

Click here to help us with moving day!

Thanks for your help! Your support will make a significant
difference as we expand our voter outreach efforts in Nevada, South
Carolina and beyond.

Sincerely,

--David Bonior

A MESSAGE FROM JOHN EDWARDS '08
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Dear Friend,

I'm asking you for some urgent help here in New Hampshire -- I hope
you'll take a moment to respond.

Since the Iowa caucuses, more than $1 million has poured into the
campaign. Your overwhelming support for John and his message of
change has kept us going -- and it will keep us going through to the
convention, and then on to the White House.

Right now, I have an immediate need: an additional $100,000 for our
Get Out The Vote operation in New Hampshire. Can you make a
contribution now to help us raise $100,000 before midnight?

Click here to make a contribution:
http://johnedwards.com/r/58959/1246934/

I know I can count on you to help bring in an additional $100,000 by
midnight. That's why I'm going to go ahead and arrange more
phone-banking calls to independent and undecided voters encouraging
them to vote tomorrow for John. 

Because you've come through before for John and our campaign, I'm
going to provide increased transportation for our volunteers as they
do last minute door-to-door canvassing -- and as we arrange rides to
help get voters to their polling places tomorrow.

I'm doing this because, like you, I know how important it is that we
elect a candidate of change -- someone who feels passionately and
personally about fighting for all of us and standing up to the
special interests.

Can you come through for John again between now and midnight?

Click here to make a contribution:
http://johnedwards.com/r/58960/1246934/

John and Elizabeth are on their 36-hour &quot;Marathon for the Middle
Class&quot; bus tour across the state. The enthusiasm and the size of
the crowds are unbelievable -- we've not seen anything quite like
this before.

We know it's a tough race in New Hampshire. But we also know that
folks who live in New Hampshire have a strong independent streak --
and that when they vote tomorrow, they will vote for the candidate
of real, lasting change: John Edwards.

Your contribution to help us raise $100,000 before midnight to
expand our final outreach efforts will allow us to reach those
independent and undecided voters.

Thanks for your support -- we're counting on you!

Sincerely,

--Beth Leonard
 New Hampshire State Director, John Edwards for President
 January 7, 2008

A MESSAGE FROM JOHN EDWARDS '08
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Dear Friend,

I may be the underdog in this campaign, running against two
candidates with more than $200 million between them â but the real
underdogs are the middle class and those without a voice in America
today.

They are losing ground while the CEOs of huge corporations pocket
million dollar bonuses and corporate lobbyists get their way and
promote their special interests in Washington.

While ExxonMobil rakes in record profits and receives government
handouts, gas prices are going through the roof, oil has
skyrocketed to $100 a barrel and the middle class is paying through
the nose at the pump.

Meanwhile, 200,000 veterans â men and women who proudly wore
America's uniform and served with honor on behalf of our country â
will sleep tonight under bridges and on grates, ignored and uncared
for by their government.

I know you cannot negotiate with the entrenched, moneyed interests
who are strangling our government.  You have to fight them and stand
up to them.  That is what I have done my whole life â and that's
exactly what I intend to do as president of the United States.  It's
why I need your support today.

Click here to make a contribution:
http://johnedwards.com/r/58872/1246934/

We can't simply replace a group of corporate Republicans with a
group of corporate Democrats and expect change.  I've never taken a
dime from Washington lobbyists or political action committees. 
That's why I'm the candidate of change who can take them on â and
win for the American people.

I know who the underdogs are in this fight.  I know that the fight
to save the middle class will be an epic battle â but I will never
give up.

We're going to take this fight to save the middle class and to speak
up for those who have no voice all the way to the convention and to
the White House.  And we're going to look our children in the eye
and tell them, &quot;We left you a better life than we had.&quot;

I'm asking you to join me in this epic battle â a fight to preserve
the greatness of America.

Franklin Roosevelt said, &quot;There is nothing I love so much as a good
fight.&quot;  He spoke for the underdogs and the voiceless of an earlier
generation of Americans.

Today, the fight for bold and lasting change continues.  With your
help, I will fight for the real underdogs of America every single
day.

Sincerely,

--John

- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Dear Friend,

John stood out in last night's debate with his strong, passionate
calls for change. But don't take my word for it -- here's what
people are saying:

George Stephanopoulous (ABC): &quot;Edwards showed passion and vitality
and energy tonight.  He was on-message.  He had a strategy tonight. 
I think this was one of his best debates.&quot;

DailyKos: &quot;Edwards probably had the best performance of the night. 
He came across as passionate, and was more energetic than the other
candidates.  With the debate closing on economic issues, he was able
to play his populist card to great effect and dominate the closing
minutes of the debate.&quot;

Click here to contribute:
http://johnedwards.com/r/58822/1246934/

AmericaBlog.com: &quot;Edwards is really unparalleled when it comes to
connecting policies with people.  I certainly find it very
effective.&quot;

Rick Klein (ABC): &quot;Edwards may have turned in the strongest pure
performance.&quot;

Matthew Yglesias (The Atlantic Monthly): &quot;John Edwards gave a fantastic
answer about the need to combine short-term effects with a long-term
commitment to 'rid the world of nuclear weapons' as part of a broad
push to revitalize the non-proliferation framework.&quot;

New Hampshire Presidential Watch: &quot;The press center is eating-up
John Edwards' attack on the status quo.&quot;

David Schuster (MSNBC): &quot;I thought the guy who stood out the most
was John Edwards.  Last night Edwards, who does not take money from
corporate interests or PACs, hammered that issue again and again.&quot;

Click here to contribute:
http://johnedwards.com/r/58823/1246934/

Rick Klein (ABC): &quot;John Edwards comes back to his message again and
again, in an effective way.  If a debate could vault him back into
the game, he may be having that very debate.&quot;

Chuck Todd (NBC): &quot;Edwards, by the way, had a very good night.&quot;

Your contribution today will help John build on this great debate
performance and carry his message of fighting for the middle class
all across this country!

Thanks for your support.

Dear Friend,

I'm the underdog in this race, running against two $100
million candidates.  They're working feverishly around the
clock to try and stop us from getting out our message of
change in New Hampshire.  That's why I need your support to
keep on fighting.

Click here to make a contribution:
http://johnedwards.com/r/58716/1246934/

You know what it's like to be the underdog too - because the
middle class is the underdog in America today. Every day,
millions of Americans are forced to battle billions and
billions of dollars of corporate greed.  But the system is
rigged against them. They need a president who will fight for
them.

That's why I'm fighting for middle class families against
these entrenched interests.  I'm fighting against the big
multi-national corporations who work around the clock to
manipulate our democracy to their own selfish benefit.

It's a fight that has been my life's cause - and the cause
continues.  I'm going to carry this fight all the way to the
convention - and we will win the nomination, and we will win
the White House.  And the middle class will have a voice again
in this country.

That's why your support is so important.

Click here to make a contribution:
http://johnedwards.com/r/58717/1246934/

In tonight's debate, there were two &quot;change candidates&quot; on the
stage.  But we have very different approaches.  I don't
believe you can sit around a table with the drug companies,
the insurance companies or the oil corporations, negotiate
with them - and then hope they'll just voluntarily give their
power away.   You can't nice them to death - it doesn't work.

They'll only give their power away when we take it away.   As
president, I will fight these powerful corporate interests,
stand-up to them - and beat them.  Help me in that fight.

Click here to make a contribution:
http://johnedwards.com/r/58718/1246934/

It's important for you to contribute now so we can show
America that I am the candidate of real and lasting change.
I need your help today.

Sincerely,

John

Dear Friend,

We're in the race of our lives -- and I'm asking for your help.  

We've got incredible momentum coming out of our powerful
second-place showing in Iowa.  We've been outspent 5-to-1 but John
is staying strong because people know he's the fighter who will
bring about the change we need.  

The two celebrity candidates who've raised $200 million are getting
ready to throw everything they've got at John.  They're going to try
and drown out John's message of fighting for change and ending the
corporate greed that has taken over our government.

That's why I need you to make a contribution now, so we can expand
our message and outreach efforts in New Hampshire, Nevada and South
Carolina.  We need you now, more than ever.

John's a fighter.  And he's the one candidate who can carry a
message of change to every corner of this country -- and win.

But as John said in his speech last night, you're the ones who have
created the tidal wave of change that is sweeping from Iowa to New
Hampshire, to Nevada and South Carolina.  History is being made, and
you are a part of it.  

Please make a contribution now -- and then ask five friends to
contribute.

I'm asking you to spread the word.  I need you to tell everyone you
know that finally we have a candidate who has the backbone, who has
the strength, who has the courage to stand up for the middle class,
and who is willing to stand up to corporate greed.

That candidate is John Edwards -- and he's fighting for all of us.  

Thanks for all you do.

A MESSAGE FROM JOHN EDWARDS '08
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Dear Friend,

It was a strong night for us - we finished second in Iowa,
beating out the Clinton machine.  Change won tonight - the
status quo lost.

But now the fight is on - and they're going to come after us,
trying to drown out our message of change with their hundreds
of millions of dollars.  That's why I need you to make a
contribution to my campaign today.

Click here to make a contribution:
http://johnedwards.com/r/58433/1246934/

What we saw in Iowa was two candidates who thought their money
would make them inevitable.

But what the Iowa caucus goers have shown us is that if you're
willing to have a little backbone, to have the courage to
speak for the middle class, to speak for those who have no
voice, and if you're willing to stand up to corporate greed,
then that message and the American people are unstoppable, no
matter how much money is spent to prevent that message from
getting out.

That's why I need your support today, so those who believe in
the status quo will not stop our message of change that this
country so desperately needs.

Click here to make a contribution:
http://johnedwards.com/r/58434/1246934/

I am so proud of this cause - and so grateful for your
support.  It is your support that has sustained Elizabeth and
me as we have campaigned across this country.  You have
created a tidal wave of change that will sweep from Iowa to
New Hampshire, to Nevada and South Carolina.

Continue to stand with me, so that when this wave of change is
done, every one of us will be able to look our children in the
eye and say, &quot;We did for you what our parents did for us - we
left America better for you than we found it.&quot;

Thank you for your support - the wave of change has begun.

Sincerely,

John

A MESSAGE FROM JOHN EDWARDS '08
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Dear Friend,

I thought you would enjoy seeing some pictures from our 36-hour
&quot;Marathon for the Middle Class&quot; bus tour. 

For the past 30 hours, John and I have been traveling across Iowa,
from the Missouri to the Mississippi, meeting people in their homes
and local communities. Later tonight, we'll finish the tour with a
rally and concert with our friend, John Mellencamp, in West Des
Moines.

It's been an exhilarating trip.  All of us on the bus -- including
Iowa's first lady, Mari Culver, and the press traveling with us --
are having a great time. We're going from town to town, home to home,
eating early morning pancake breakfasts with supporters and spreading
John's message of ending the corporate greed that has taken over
Washington.

I've been through this with John before, and I can tell you the
crowds are larger, more enthusiastic -- and hungry for his message of
change and ending politics-as-usual in Washington. And because John
has been through this before, he knows what has to be done in these
last 24 hours to close the deal.

We can see and feel and hear the momentum that is going to carry
John to victory tomorrow night. I'm asking you for your support
again, as you have done before, to help us win in Iowa -- and then as
we move on to New Hampshire, Nevada, South Carolina and the other
key states.

In the meantime, I hope you enjoy these pictures from the road --
it's been quite a trip.

More later!

A MESSAGE FROM JOHN EDWARDS '08
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Dear Friend,

I just got word from Team Internet about what you all have
accomplished -- raising more money last quarter for our campaign than
any other quarter in 2007, with tens of thousands of contributors
from across the country rising to change America.

I can't tell you how great that feels here in Iowa, to know so many
people are standing with us as we enter the final 36-hour stretch to
the caucuses. 

Every dollar that has come in is going to our efforts to get our
message out and win here in Iowa, as well as in New Hampshire and
the other early states. But here's the thing:

In 36 hours, this is all going to come down to turnout. Polls show --
and we're seeing this every day -- that late-deciding caucus goers
are breaking to John. That means we need to expand our Get Out The
Vote operation to ensure every supporter of John Edwards who needs
help getting to their caucus location can be there.

Can you help us raise an additional $75,000 in the next 36 hours? Only
with your help can we put more volunteers on the ground and vans on the
road.  Will you help us deliver caucus goers for John on Thursday night
and victory for our campaign?

Click here to make contribution:
http://johnedwards.com/r/57782/1246934/

I can tell you that the momentum you've been hearing about is
increasing with each passing hour here on the ground in Iowa. John
and Elizabeth are on a 36-hour non-stop tour -- a &quot;Marathon for the
Middle Class&quot; -- across the state, and here in Des Moines and in
every field office across the state, volunteers and staffers are
working non-stop to win Iowa for John Edwards.

Thursday night, Iowans will be standing with John at their caucus.
Please, help us ensure that everyone who wants to stand with John is
there:

A MESSAGE FROM JOHN EDWARDS '08
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Dear Friend,

Just over a year ago, John announced he was running for president. 
He said then that this election would be about change and ending
politics-as-usual in Washington.

Over the past 12 months, John has carried his message of change and
making a difference to all corners of our country. It's New
Year's Eve -- and we're just three days away from the Iowa caucuses. 

Poll after poll in the last few days show John heading for victory
on Thursday. The race is still tight, but there is no doubt in my
mind that we have got the momentum as we head into these last three
days.

But now your help is needed to turn that momentum into victory. I'm
asking you to make a financial contribution to John's campaign
today. Every dollar you can give -- whether it is $100, $50 or $25 --
will help him secure victory in Iowa, New Hampshire and the other
key early states.

Click here to make a contribution today:
http://johnedwards.com/r/56991/1246934/

I know John -- and I know his driving determination and commitment to
stand up to the special interests that are choking our government,
to be a president who will fight every single day to give the
American people their voice back and build a better world for our
children.

Your faith in John's ability to build a better world for our
children and to fight for those who have no voice is what will carry
his campaign to victory in Iowa, New Hampshire and the other key
states.

Click here to make a contribution today:
http://johnedwards.com/r/56992/1246934/

I know you will come through for John. Your support can make a
difference. Together, we have the opportunity to make 2008 the year
that America meets its moral test and rises up to pass on a better
world to our children. 

John joins me in wishing you and your family all the best for a safe
and happy New Year.

Thank you for being such an important part of John's campaign. 

Sincerely,

--Elizabeth Edwards

A MESSAGE FROM JOHN EDWARDS '08
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Dear Friend,

There's never been a better time for you to make a difference in
this presidential race.  It's a dead heat -- but here in the
homestretch, the momentum is moving in John Edwards' direction.

Two polls released today show John surging in Iowa and New
Hampshire.  The McClatchy Newspapers-MSNBC poll shows John gaining
3 percentage points and surging into the lead since the holidays --
Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama both lost ground over the same
period.   And a new American Research Group poll shows John surging
in New Hampshire too.  

The momentum is breaking John's way at exactly the right moment --
but we need your help to capitalize in Iowa, New Hampshire and
beyond.  Now is when it counts -- please show your support for John.

Click here to make a contribution:
http://johnedwards.com/r/56786/1246934/

We're about to make political history.  Victory in the Iowa caucuses
and the New Hampshire primary will propel John to the Democratic
nomination.  The big money candidates can read the polls as well --
they see John's momentum, and they're playing the old Washington
game and launching desperate attacks.

But this campaign -- a campaign to put the American people first and
have a strong middle class -- cannot be stopped.  Your contribution
helps us get the resources we need into Iowa and New Hampshire now,
so we can maintain the momentum and hold off the last minute
desperate attacks from other candidates.

Click here to make a contribution:
http://johnedwards.com/r/56787/1246934/

You can make the difference, now.  Please take a moment and show
your support for John with a contribution.

A MESSAGE FROM JOHN EDWARDS '08
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Dear Friend,

I knew John could count on you to make the difference in this
campaign! 

Last Thursday, I challenged you to raise $1.5 million online by
December 31 to give us additional resources as we push to victory in
Iowa on January 3. I'd asked you to do so much already, but would
you be prepared to accept this new challenge and help us raise $1.5
million in just five days?

Our online team told me this morning that thousands of you have
enthusiastically responded to the challenge and now we're well over
halfway to meeting that goal. 

But now it gets really challenging. There's just two days left to
hit the target -- and one of those is New Year's Eve, a tough day to
raise money. I know we can do it because you've come through for us
before -- but we'll need a big bump over the next 24 hours. Will you
help us get it?

Click here to make a contribution and accept the challenge:
http://johnedwards.com/r/56647/1246934/

There are just 4 days until we win the Iowa caucuses and make
political history. Because of your great response so far to our
$1.5 million challenge, we were able to put additional resources
into Iowa this weekend and expand our outreach efforts. 

And, because of your support, we're strengthening our ground
operations in New Hampshire, South Carolina, Nevada and other key
early states. 

I knew I could count on you -- but I still need your help to get us
to our $1.5 million goal by the time the ball comes down in Times
Square on New Year's Eve.

Click here to make a contribution and accept the challenge:
http://johnedwards.com/r/56648/1246934/

I also received a field update earlier today from our team on the
ground in Iowa. They confirm what the latest polls are showing:
John Edwards has the momentum heading toward caucus night on January
3.

This weekend, thousands of volunteers and supporters fanned out
across the state, visiting with likely caucus goers on their stoops,
front porches and in their living rooms, talking to them about John
Edwards. Our television spots and newspaper advertisements are up
and running. 

There is no doubt we have the best ground operation of any campaign
in Iowa. We're going to make political history this coming Thursday
night. Even though the media and the Washington pundits have spent
most of their time focused on the two celebrity candidates, John's
the one who's going to win Iowa -- and then continue the momentum
moving into New Hampshire.

That's why your contribution today -- whether it's $100, $50 or even
$10 -- makes the difference. It's a challenge -- but I know I can
count on you to come through for John Edwards.

A MESSAGE FROM JOHN EDWARDS '08
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

Dear Friend,
 
If you could be in Iowa with me right now, you would feel the
incredible momentum behind our campaign. The crowds in Iowa are the
largest I've ever seen -- and folks are responding passionately to
our message of making sure that America rises again.
 
But I need your help to turn that momentum into victory. If you've
been waiting to make a financial contribution to our campaign, now
is the time. Whether you can afford to give $100, $50, or $10, every
dollar you give today will help us secure victory in Iowa, New
Hampshire and beyond. 
 
The people of Iowa are standing up for our campaign. Will you stand
with them today?

People in Iowa believe -- as I do -- that this election is the most
important in a generation. I see an America rising where
middle-class families are thriving, where our children can rise
higher than their parents in an America where they can achieve
things their parents never dreamed of. 

We must meet our moral test as Americans and pass on a better world
to our children. But, to do that, we need a president who will
stand up to the powerful interests that have taken over our
government, a president who will fight every single day to give the
American people their voice back, so we can have a strong middle
class and build a better world for our children.

That is why I am running -- and that is why I'm asking for your
support right now at this critical time.

Your contribution today -- no matter how large or small -- will make
the difference in our ability to get our message of America Rising
to the people of Iowa, New Hampshire and the other early states. 
 
Please, contribute any amount you can afford to give today.

Thank you for your support.

Sincerely,

John Edwards
December 29, 2007
