Well, we did it! We got an independent audit of the Federal Reserve ready for the President's signature. That's what the Senate's vote to approve the financial reform bill means; the audit authority is in there. Now we will find out which zombie banks on Wall Street got a new lease on life with Fed money, as the Fed's balance sheet grew by over one trillion dollars.

Funny enough, the world of big money isn't collapsing -- as the Fed threatened it would if an audit of the Fed ever came close to passing.

But if you happened to read Rupert Murdoch's Wall Street Journal on May 7, 2010, you would have heard a different story. "Plan for Congressional Audits of Fed Dies in Senate," was the headline. Exactly what Wall Street wanted you to think.

Whoops! It looks like the Wall Street Journal has gone the way of Rupert Murdoch's flagship holding, Fox News.

But we won. And so, to celebrate, we took that Wall Street Journal article from two months ago, did a little photoshopping, and put this together:

Share the news -- and the photos -- with your friends and loved ones.

We did this. Together. At every moment, as the Fed and Wall Street sought to undermine this cause, it was the phone calls, letters, e-mails, blogging and sheer power of the people -- ordinary people who cared -- that beat them back. We have delivered a succinct message to Wall Street and the Fed: "We Can Beat You."

We will beat you. As often as we need to. And when the battle is over, as Lincoln said, there will be "a new birth of freedom, and government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth."

Courage,

Alan Grayson

At 12:56 p.m. today, Reuters/Ipsos released a poll showing Alex leading Bill McCollum 31-30 and within the margin of error against Rick Scott. This race is truly neck and neck.

The Reuters analysis said it best: "either Republican will have a tough race against Democrat Sink."

Help us keep the momentum going. Click here to contribute $10 now.

We know that Alex's strong leadership is resonating with Floridians, and the more voters learn about McCollum and Scott, the less they like what they're hearing.

SINK vs. MCCOLLUM: Sink 31%, McCollum 30%, Undecided 26%; SINK vs. SCOTT: Sink 31%, Scott 34%, Undecided 22%

Supporters like you are making this campaign possible. We're not going to let Scott buy this election or McCollum extend his long and failed political career. We're going to win this race because of grassroots support from people like you who know we need Alex as our next governor.

Since we set our goal of raising $200,000, we've been blown away by the response. As of this minute we're within striking distance at $149,050.

Contribute now to help us reach our goal before the July 16 deadline.

This poll shows once again that we can win this race. But we need to reach our goal to keep that momentum going.

Thank you for all your support,

Shellie Levin
