Barbra Streisand Makes Campaign Plea for Democrats

3:14 PM PDT 10/18/2012 by Jordan Zakarin


The legendary singer-actress emailed Democrats asking for cash, calling a potential GOP takeover "a disaster for America."

While President Obama got an assist from Bruce Springsteen on the campaign trail on Thursday (Muddy's note--Springsteen was with Bill Clinton, and busted the Clenis for talking too long), Barbra Streisand sang the praises of his fellow Democrats in Congress.

The singer, who is a long-time Dem activist and has performed at fundraisers for Obama, penned a note to the mailing list of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee that relayed an urgent message and appeal for donations.

"We’re just weeks from the most important election in a generation and every single thing Democrats like you and I spent a lifetime fighting for is on the line," the Oscar/Grammy/Emmy/Tony winner wrote. "

Republican Super PACs are pounding President Obama and Democratic candidates with millions of dollars of vicious attack ads. And, they could tip the balance of the election for Tea Party extremists. 

That would be a disaster for America and we can’t let it happen. We must close the funding gap."

Streisand recently wrote a blog post for The Huffington Post blasting Romney's proposed economic policies.

Ah, the sweet, sweet taste of Democrat Party despiration!

It probably gave its $3.00.
