be. No thanks. Mahalo!

Hey Aloha, Peggysue!

The emails started coming while I was up for a visit to Philly and South Jersey.

Regardless of where I am, the answer is 'No Thanks.'

Tout suite.

Just spitballing here.

My query really had to do with the why or how the Sanders' campaign would have my email address. If I'd heard from all the campaigns that would be one thing. But no, beyond Joe Biden, it's just been Bernie honking for money.

priceless Clinton campaign data in the DNC's data storage system. Remember how indignant the staffers' famously micro-manager boss was when the DNC sanctioned him for wrongdoing?

After they were caught and he'd tried to make it go away by apologizing to the victim of the breach, he became so outraged at the injustice that he launched one of his lawsuit performances to "prove" it was they who victimized him.

The lawsuit strategy ended, as usual, after the media reported its beginning, with his quietly withdrawing the suit before the discovery phase would have required both parties to provide evidence showing crime or lack of it.

Definite possibility, Hortensis, because I was on the monthly donation plan for Hillary in '16. And yes, that breach opened up a trove of data.

The plot thickens!

to use any that was illegally obtained in public mailings, and certainly nothing through the USPS.

They initially said they only downloaded it out of curiosity, to see if it was really what they thought it was; then they realized they were completely innocent victims of the evil DNC and went on the attack. Four months later:

FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK


i cant get angrier

Hahahahaha

is the never ending large group of Democrat candidates. By now we all should have narrowed it down to maybe three, and to one within a month so we call all get together on everything we say and do.

Even clowns like Colorado's Bennett (DINO by the way) is still going like he is in the running. WTF

AND Bloomberg? I guess after Trump he thinks that any Billionaire can get elected???? Again, WTF

what is the TOS

LOL

Where would your name and data be found?

DNC files? They do maintain voter files accessible to all campaigns .

Also I have contributed to Act Blue, which supports many Dem candidates.

This campaign I have contributed to one and only one candidate
-Klobuchar. I expect to get requests from her.

You tell me.

I opened the door to Joe Biden. So hearing from his campaign makes sense. But I've never been buzzed by any other candidate. Except Bernie. And it was: out of the blue.

But then, I have sons who think they're hilariously funny. Everyone will be here for the holiday. So, if it's one of them, the so-called joke will come out.

I too ended up on a Bush donation list. I got two pleas from Dr. Death himself, Dick Cheney. To bad the paper in the letter was glossed, otherwise I could have moistened it and wiped my butt with it. Needless to say, they didn't get a penny from me.

I quickly unsubscribed.

At least, now I know it's happened to others. Curious.

I better not get one.

Yeah, I suspect I'll hear the scream travel from Hawaii, cross-country and arrive smack in the middle of the Smoky Mountains. LOL.

But if I hear it? I'll know where it's coming from.

they are on. People, campaigns and many other organizations purchase mailing lists. I wouldn't read any more into it than that.

It just seemed weird.

And I unsubscribed from the things months ago.

Give it up, Bernie. I am supporting another candidate.

that read she was "insulted" that I had not contributed to the DNC. I was pissed. So, I wrote them back and informed them that I was [/b]insulted that they were scolding a disabled veteran/senior citizen, who lives on a disability pension and cannot work, for failing to contribute within the 24 hour time frame they had demanded. Then I told them to stop texting me.

Then the next week, I started getting e-mail requests from AOC. I don't even live in NYC. It took FIVE tries to get un-subscribed.

What is up with this unsolicited stuff ?

...on some days.

Today's is the second time he offered a free book if you send a contribution of "any amount" (although the minimum is $1.00). The first time I DID send a buck, and got the book a few weeks later.

them also. I have never given to his campaign either. I have given to ACT BLUE so there must be some connection. I’ve also been getting them from Nancy Pelosi regarding the party, as well as other candidates I’ve never given to. Haven’t gotten one from from Biden though.

Don't recall any from Pelosi but then after being away for 10 days, I went on a mad email purging mission. So I might have dumped it and not noticed the name.

They are coming in on my gmail account which I used for the National convention

Sanders and Warren and once a very long time ago to Pete to get him on the debate stage.

It’s pretty easy to ignore, delete. I tried to get off Biden, Pete, and Klobacher’s list but I still get their appeals. So now I just hit delete. Not an issue for me.

This pretty much came out of the blue and only from the Sanders' campaign.

Btw, my best friend in Jersey is the one who gave me the screen name. She took it from the movie 'Peggy Sue Got Married,' thought it was a perfect Tennessee fit when we moved down here. She still laughs about it.

I got one from the RNC about a month ago asking how I felt about the fantastic and amazing Donald J. Trump. I told them exactly what I thought about Donald J. Trump, but "fantastic and amazing" were not among the descriptors used. I did however include a donation: A nice shiny "penny for my thoughts". The GOP won't go down for a penny,

I've been voting since 1968 and have never voted for a republican. So how did I get on the RNCs shit list? Either someone is fucking with me, or it was completely random. I don't think I'll ever receive another.

is information available only to you. It's public record if you voted and what political party, if any, you belong to, but there is no record of who or what you voted for.

Okay, I'll stop complaining. I'd likely throw the computer across the room if I got something from the RNC praising the Squatter-in-Chief.

My condolences.

There were a few others, which makes me think it was completely random. Maybe they pick on those receiving Medicare, thinking we're not too swift in the cerebral area, but we always vote!

Count on it!

a dime . I'm not in Schiff's district, didn't even know he was up for re election. The only candidates I have donated to is Bernie and Tom Steyer.

You may have something there.

I get emails from all sorts of people I've never voted for or donated to. I haven't gotten one from Bernie, yet.

I do donate to Dems that I think have a chance to win so I’m sure they are passing around email addresses

and go into other candidates' areas on purpose.

Their numbers absolutely cratered after 2016. Was that the high mark of the revolution?

check their slogans to see if they'd been used before.

"Our Revolution" is pretty generic, except I hear Lenin talking.

and CPAC ads on my Facebook feed. The mysteries of the universe.

It was a text message but the person addressed it to someone else (didn't lead with my name). It was to my personal cell phone. That number isn't widely available.

Call and ask where they are getting their lists.

Could be from the russians through one of the many consultants they have out there using the stolen voter registration info they grabbed, or from the gop lists they have access to.

What I found interesting was that my son got a mailer from the trump campaign. He has never contacted them, and doesn't fall into any of their demographics. But he did apply to the air force (he was turned down because at one point he had childhood asthma).

Is the trump admin accessing armed forces recruiting info to target mailers?

Deleted it.

For all the rhetoric of revolution by the hipster sans-coulettes crowd, Sanders' campaign seems little different than any other faltering political campaign that's never gotten past second gear... simply another beltway-insider millionaire asking for money.

I can only assume that a friend handed over a list of mobile phone numbers of people they know.

It's off-putting to me to receive an unsolicited text and I replied with STOP immediately. I think that blocks whoever is texting because I haven't received any more messages.
