Offensive Mail Sent to Obama Supporters in WI
Source: AP

Wisconsin authorities are trying to find out who sent offensive postcards to Obama supporters in the Milwaukee area.

The unwanted mail contains a racial epithet. In essence, the postcard says only an n-lover will vote for Obama.

...

The mail came from an address in Greenfield, but the man who lives at that address said he received the mailing too and was very upset someone put his information on something like that.

The Secret Service and the Postal Inspector are also looking into the incident.

5. Anyone have a copy?
Offensive as it is, I feel the need to send it to a webpage a colleague started that collects McCain/Palin-inspired racist messages about Obama.
