Well, we all want to do something to correct the Obamination. Hillary Clinton is proven to be the stronger candidate against Mccain and the one who is capable of winning us a democratic White House. We need to write to the super-delegates and tell them to put Hillary Clinton’s name in nomination at the Denver Convention!
To assist in this effort, please, click on this link and follow the instructions. Your letter will be sent to all SD’s without your having to copy and paste addresses into mutiple forms.
We are counting on you to speak out and let them know your will. Please, be respectful and adamant.
As most of you are aware I am a Mccain supporter but as I have made no secret of since this blog started on May 5th; but I also have a strong belief that our nation should nominate the two candidates who are best suited to be our Commander-In-Chief. Over the past two and half months my sight has been visited by thousands of knowledgeable Democrats opposed to Barack Obama because they foresee the damage that this candidate could inflict upon this country. There is nothing that I fear more than the lack of experience, over-zealous populism, and harmful policy positions of a candidate who was illegitimately nominated and who is more concerned with power than moving this country forward and protecting our sovereignty. With that in mind, I would rather John McCain take his chances of losing against Hillary Clinton, than risking the chance that Senator Obama could ever become president. As a result, I have a gift for my Puma friends who have won my enduring respect for their stand against a system that is inherently disenfranchising and has abandoned the very policies of the greatest leaders of that party.
Today, I am launching a ‘last stand’ email initiative for the Democrats and Independents opposed to Obama. Like the ‘Drill Now’ email initiative that we launched, the form below offers you a chance to mail multiple Supers with one easy click and a unified message to assure a roll call, and place Hillary Clinton’s name on the ballot. Additionally the form will allow you to continue to pressure the 543 Supers that we are targeting that have either committed to Obama or are still undecided.
Now here is the catch, we want to maximize the saturation of this message. But the problem with email lobbying is that the more people they target, the less effective they are. A majority of spam bots, blockers, and even your email software will automatically tag mass emails as spam. So when you mail 543 Supers you’ve already damaged the reach of your message just by pressing send. Additionally, as we began working on this idea several weeks ago and compiling the list, we found that many Supers, especially congressional Supers have multiple email addresses. For instance, Nancy Pelosi has 3 that are tested and possibly a fourth that we are waiting to see if it is still active. As a result the challenge that we have is that our program will not send out, or is not set up to effectively send mail to the 832 email addresses of the 500 Supers. Unlike our Energy initiative which is highly targeted, this list is simply too big.
In response, in order to achieve maximum saturation and maximum reach we are breaking up the email list into blocks of 10-15 email addresses. We can send out up 4 blocks per submission, so a reach of up to 60 delegates per submission. This assures that the messages are not tagged as spam, which they are not, and they reach the their intended audience. Every 3 days we will update the email list with 45-50 new addresses (we will continue to include certain Dem. Leaders such as Pelosi, Reid and Dean every cycle) so that by the start of the convention we have thoroughly saturated the targeted 543 delegates. So be sure to check back every 3-4 days and resubmit the form.
When you submit the form, an email is automatically generated and sent on your behalf, coming from your email address. Now it’s important to realize that you may receive auto-responses from some of the email addresses telling you to submit your email to another address. Don’t worry, the email has been sent to the other addresses as well. This form will send a unified message, with a unified tagline.
Now this effort will be time-consuming from my end and is likely to be fraught with challenges and increased costs from the software provider. My ability to maintain the updated list, address the technical challenges, and offset any additional costs rests purely in your hands. If you use the form, please be generous enough to make a small donation to offset our costs. I’m obviously not looking to make money, but I can also not afford to spend hours per day maintaining this effort and making sure that addresses are accurate without some offset. So thank you in advance.
