Ken Mehlman Sent Me a Dollar - I Sent Him a Nickel

So today I got a letter in the mail from Ken Mehlman asking for money - funny thing was this letter had a dollar in it.

Read the letter here.

Well, I think this is a stupid fundraising scheme, I wrote back to Ken about this.

Mr. Ken Mehlman
Republican National Committee
310 First Street SE
P.O. Box 98206
Washington, DC 20077-7561

Dear Sir:
I received your dollar today, and I would just like you to know that this fundraising scheme doesn’t make a nickel’s worth of sense (see enclosed nickel.)

I have sent your dollar to Dwight Grotberg.

Keep the nickel.

Sincerely,
Dustin Gawrylow

P.S. Quit supporting RINOs and abandoning solid conservative candidates like Dwight Grotberg and Matt Mechtel.

I guess I owe Dwight a dollar now.

That’s a great point.

The GOP spends tends of millions on elections elsewhere in the country when they could pretty much get all three of ND’s seats in Congress just by matching the 5 or so million Conrad, etc. get from out of state contributors.

Well, clearly they have sent one dollar to hundresds of thousands of people with hopes they each will send $25 back.

Clearly, if I am getting this, perhaps a million or more people are getting them. 

I did pay my $35 annual membership last spring, I didn’t intend for it to be sent to people in some ponzy scheme. 

If they can send dollars to millions of people, and spend money defending RINOs and Dems in lieberman’s case, why can’t they send some to ND?

I like that! The methods and amounts of money in campaigning are insane. And for the most part the messages sent to the voters are conflictingly muddy. There is a striking image for you! I have been trying to get a sense of Lynn Swann’s platform, very little is actually put forward in his TV and radio spots. Rendell is out spending him pretty heavily and I believe he could capitalise on that, “entrenched encumbent, beholden to big money special interests”, I just am not seeing much out here in flyover. Swann appears to be concentrating on Philly and points east.
