The Obama campaign has raffled off numerous dinners with the president.
Now ... it's coffee with Joe Biden.
The vice president makes the pitch himself in an e-mail to supporters, asking them to contribute at least $3 to enter a contest for a sit-down with him.
"Want to have a cup of coffee sometime soon?" Biden writes. "I'm sure we'll have a lot to talk about, but mainly I just want to say thanks for helping out."
Of course, the campaign calls it "grab a cup of joe with Joe."
The contest offers what Biden calls "the chance to come hang out -- flight, hotel, and coffee on us. You can even bring a guest."
Biden also writes:
Barack and I know that we ask you for a lot. We wouldn't do it if we didn't believe that folks like you are going to decide this election.
The spending on the other side this year is literally unprecedented. If nothing changes, Barack is on pace to be the first president in modern history to get outspent in his re-election campaign.
What you do will determine how this goes.
Make a grassroots donation today, and you'll be automatically entered to win. ...
Last week was a big one for this campaign. The truth is we need every week to be that big. We need to dig deeper and deeper every day if we want to win.
Hope to see you soon,
Joe
