An email signed by President Barack Obama, with the subject line “I’m going to need you for this,” was sent to Democrats on Tuesday, saying “the other side is counting on folks like you sitting this one out, so I need you to say that you’ll be watching on Thursday.” Democrats don’t seem to be worried about party members suddenly hearing something they like and switching party affiliations. Instead, Mr. Obama, who has about 18 months left in his presidency, implores Democrats to watch the debate, and keep an eye on Republicans who want to undo the “progress we’ve made together over these past six years.”
“I’m gonna bet that they’ll all promise to repeal the Affordable Care Act,” Mr. Obama says in the email. “They’ll all tell us that even though they aren’t scientists, we shouldn’t believe in the science behind climate change. They’ll all want to reverse course on immigration reform and marriage equality. ”
