McCain Camp's latest email:
just got this email from the McCain campaign, odd because I'm a registered Democrat. don't know if they are so desperate that they are mass emailing to all, or if because I'm a woman in Ohio they think I may be a PUMA? but regardless...the email cracks me up, they are DEFINITELY concerned about cash! I'm putting my comments in Bold....


Dear Supporter,

The reviews are in from Saturday's Saddleback Civil Forum on the Presidency, moderated by Pastor Rick Warren. The critics agree - John McCain's straight talk emerged as the big winner of the night. what critics would that be, I wonder?

After watching both candidates answer the same set of questions, it's become clear why Senator Barack Obama has run away from debating John McCain and refused joint town hall meetings. Senator Obama dodged answering the toughest questions. But John McCain gave straight and direct answers to Rick Warren and the entire audience about issues like national security, personal faith and values, education, taxes, energy, and the Supreme Court. McCain gave canned answers that pandered to the audience--and had a story for every question.

The bottom line is that John McCain will put our country before his own self interest. He has done so his entire life. And that is why it is so important we do everything we can right now to elect John McCain as the next President of the United States. Did he put his country first when he got involved in the Keating Five?

Will you join our campaign today by following this link to make an immediate contribution before our fundraising deadline on August 31st? Your financial support is needed now more than ever.

I won't mince words. Senator Obama has a financial edge over our campaign right now. He raised $51 million in July alone. And Sunday, he raised $7.8 million from Nancy Pelosi and her friends in San Francisco. This is money he will use to spread misinformation and distortions of John McCain's record. Now they're scared--too bad we don't have to misinform or distort anything, his record speaks for itself!

We must raise money today to fight back against these distortions. We must have the financial ability to spread the messages and ideas John McCain shared at the Saddleback forum. Will you help elect John McCain as our next president by making an immediate donation of $25, $50, $100, $250, $500, $1,000 or $2,300? As always, your support is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Sincerely,
Rick Davis
Campaign Manager

P.S. We have said from the beginning that voters have a clear choice in this election and the Saddleback Civil Forum showed that there are stark contrasts between Senator Obama and John McCain. John McCain will tell Americans exactly what he believes is best for our country - because he puts country before his own self interest. he will tell america what he thinks they want to hear. Senator Obama dodges the tough questions because he doesn't have the leadership or judgment to make the hard calls a president must make every day.

I want to get off this email list but I kinda enjoy reading these emails...

1. Are you white? Because I have a theory that Republicans
are mailing every white person they can get an address for regardless of their affiliation.

They are throwing a large net and trying to reel in the racists (of varying degrees)

7. yeah, I think you're right.
and I have to say I felt a little relieved when I got the first email; because I've signed enough petitions and sent enough letters, I was afraid I was on the list of people destined to be in the detention camps...ok kidding (a little)....but you know what I mean....
