Dear RNC:
When you make a robo-call, you might want to do your homework first. I realize desperate times call for desperate measures but honestly, if you looked up my husband and me in the voter database, you would see that we are registered Democrats, not republicans, not independents, DEMOCRATS. So when you make these calls, you might want reconsider leaving a message for us that calls us Elitist Democrats. How would you like it if I called you racist ignorant pigs? Hmmm? Not so nice, now is it? Or what about nationalist wackjobs? No? Well then, I think you might understand my position. And for the record, I do not support the excessive use of coal; therefore, leaving a recording within a recording of Senator Biden, a man I respect AND FOR WHOM I WILL VOTE (see, a little elitism in there using proper grammar) saying that coal is not the best source of energy does not win me over.
The one thing you did right was leave a telephone number for me to call and remove my number from your list, although I would have enjoyed explaining my feelings about this message to an actual person from the RNC.
Cordially,
Fretfully Elitist Democrat
And before they go off calling Democrats "elitist," they might want to check into the background of their own candidates. Take Republican Congressman Phil English, for example. He didn't attend high school in his home town of Erie, Pennsylvania. No, that wasn't good enough for his "elitist" ass. His parents shipped him off to a boarding school in Rhode Island. Hypocrites.

Don't you detest one size fits all campaigning?

It's too bad you didn't get a chance to record the call to share the inanity with all of us.

Well... I'm not registered on anything, nor will I!
Both parties seem to think they are entitled to your vote... I laugh at such things.
