Joe Biden begs for cash and pimps out meeting with the President

The latest email from the Obama campaign reflects a growing sense desperation from campaign headquarters to get cash before the end of the year. In a personal letter from Joe Biden, Vice President of the United States, readers are told:

"Folks, this campaign has an important financial deadline coming up"
Biden goes on to say:

"what we're able to raise before the 31st is going to have a big effect on what we're able to do next year to re-elect this president."
The email from barackobama.com never offers any detail on why the 31st is such a hot deadline. We suspect it has something to do with the double-dipping going on with the primary election fundraising which counts as a separate election from the general. After the end of the year deadline the Obama campaign might only be allowed to collect $2500 from each person instead of $5000.

Biden ends the personal email by copy/pasting the same thing as all the rest:

P.S. -- Right now, any donation you make automatically enters you for a chance to sit down for dinner with Barack and Michelle. You shouldn't pass that up.
This is a personal meeting with the President of the United States being sold for the low low price of only $3... times several million of course.
