John Edwards: "Tom is in the race of his life"

The White House Bulletin reports that Senator John Edwards recently sent out a fundraising e-mail on behalf of Senator Tom Daschle:

Sen. John Edwards' One America Committee today launched a fund raising campaign asking potential donors to "give as much as you can" to help Senate Democratic Leader Tom Daschle win a tough reelection campaign this year.

In an e-mail, Edwards wrote, "Tom is in the race of his life, and he needs your help to compete against millions from the Republican Party and third party groups that are attacking his record. Please give what you can - $50, $100 - as much as you can to help keep Tom Daschle fighting for us in the Senate. Because if Tom Daschle wins, we stand a good chance of gaining a Democratic Senate that John Kerry can work with as president."
