Matthew --
Why is that important?
This will be the final report before the next series of primaries, and the results will be sized up and interpreted by everyone trying to gauge the strength of our campaign.
Thanks to you, we've won more delegates, more votes, and twice as many states as Senator Clinton.
But this race isn't over yet.
We're fighting a battle on two fronts. Senator McCain is attacking from one side, intent on suggesting that a third term of George Bush's policies is somehow the best path for our country. Meanwhile, Senator Clinton is attacking from the other, because her campaign has flatly stated that tearing us down is her only chance to win.
There are 10 primaries and caucuses remaining in states like Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Indiana. This two-front battle will require unprecedented resources, and we can't let up.
Your donation, before midnight tonight, will build our campaign for the remaining contests and send a message of strength to all those scrutinizing the campaign finance reports.
And don't forget -- tonight is also the last chance to become one of the donors eligible for a dinner with me we'll be having soon.
Will you make a donation of $25 now?

There's one thing we already know about the March fundraising results: Senator Clinton and Senator McCain have raised a significant portion of their money from Washington lobbyists and special interest PACs.
We've never done that, and we never will.
Instead, we will continue to rely on more than a million individual donors who support this campaign by giving only what they can afford.
Change does not come from the top down -- it comes from the bottom up.
So rather than having expensive fundraising dinners to take contributions from Washington lobbyists, I'm hosting a different kind of dinner. If you are chosen from among the donors who give before midnight tonight, I'll get to hear your personal story and ideas about how we can solve America's biggest problems together.
Donate before 11:59 p.m. EDT tonight, and you could join me for dinner sometime soon:

The pundits are slowly realizing something about our political process that we've known from the beginning: people matter.
In unprecedented numbers, ordinary people are volunteering and donating to this campaign. They're taking true ownership in a way that has never happened before.
When we started this campaign over a year ago, the pundits and the political insiders didn't think it was possible to mobilize ordinary people to reject conventional thinking and fight for real change.
We have a chance to prove them wrong, and tonight is a critical deadline on this journey.
Help us finish this quarter strong:

Thank you for your support,
Barack
