Angry Joe Biden Email Asks for Donations: "What's Stopping You... Get Off the Sidelines"

Yesterday we covered the fact that a mass Obama 2012 email tried to passively-aggressively guilt people into donating to the President's campaign.  Today, it looks like they're a bit angry.  In a new mass email, Vice President Joe Biden asks people accusingly, "What's stopping you, right now?"

It's an odd email, to be sure. Here are the oddest parts (emphasis mine):
Subject: What's stopping you, right now?...

If you know you're going to donate to this campaign eventually, what's stopping you from doing it right now?

If you're going to be a part of history in 2012, it's time to get off the sidelines...

And what you're capable of is incredible -- if you decide to do it.
Please, Mr. Vice President, stop talking down to all of us.  Although, I have to admit, if Mr. Biden is this upset, it could mean that the White House is worried about the GOP winning come 2012.  Either that or Joe is angry all the time...
Here is the entire email:
From: Joe Biden (info@barackobama.com)
Subject: What's stopping you, right now?
To: "XXXXXX XXXX" (xxxxxxxx@xxxxxx.com)
Date: Friday, September 30, 2011, 3:58 PM

Friend --

I need to ask you one last thing before tonight's midnight deadline:

If you know you're going to donate to this campaign eventually, what's stopping you from doing it right now?

If you're going to be a part of history in 2012, it's time to get off the sidelines.

So, before midnight, will you chip in what you can and say you're in?

This has never been about Barack and me.

We're just two guys. It's folks like you out there who will decide this election.

And what you're capable of is incredible -- if you decide to do it.

Thank you,

Joe

P.S. -- That deadline also applies to the dinner Barack is having with four supporters. Donate today and you'll be automatically entered for the chance to be there.
