Republican Party is desperate for funds...they are asking me to
send them money. About twenty years ago I registered as a Republican to vote in a primary for some whacko and never changed my registration. Until now I have never received a mailing from the Republican National Committee. But in the last few months I have received three or four solicitations. Of course, being polite, I send back the postage paid envelope with a comment on what I think of the Republican Party's accomplishments over the past few years.

2. I got one too
Which is odd since I've never been registered Republican, never joined any GOP groups, or anything. They must really be scraping the bottom of the barrel if they are doing blind-mailing solicitations like this.

4. Oh yes, I always send something back to them.
It would be rude not to, seeing how they go to all that trouble to provide you with a postage paid envelope.

5. Bush is the face of American Republicanism
his base is alive and well...

"WASHINGTON — For all the success that Democratic presidential candidates have had in raising money — taking in a combined total of over $500 million in the current race — the Republicans are beating them in one crucial area of fund-raising: the money being raised by the parties themselves.The Democratic National Committee ended 2007 nearly flat broke, with cash of $2.9 million and debts of $2.2 million. Since then it has raised some money, paid down debt and managed to put $3.7 million in its piggy bank. This compares, however, with $25 million that the Republican National Committee has in cash on hand, after having raised $97 million since the beginning of 2007."
