I got a letter from Governor Scott Walker today.

I will try not to bust a gut while relaying the first sentence to you.

"Dear Fellow Conservative"

"Conservatives are under attack in Wisconsin and that means...there's BIG TROUBLE AHEAD where you live."




More shit was written, I will spare you the gore. I will one day have to face my God, but tonight, I will likely wipe my ass with Governor Scott Walker's appeal for my money, not a fucking penny of it will he get.

Then they'd spend a lot more than that hitting you up with all the mail hence wasting their $$$.

In 2010, I was called by the teabagger challenging my congressman's campaign from a phone bank.

As a campaign staffer, I knew exactly what they were doing, and I kept them on the phone for 45 minutes pretending to be an undecided voter. That is 45 minutes worth of phone calls that they did not make (the teabagger lost the election).

Campaigns have limited resources of time, volunteers, and $$$. By sending them $1, you remain on their list and they lost money on you. They will waste their $$$ trying to get more donations out of people like you and won't have the resources to solicit serious donors.

Think of going to Walmart only to buy the loss leaders.

Two things I want to make clear.

I am not remotely conservative. I gave hundreds to democrats this weekend. Except for Obama, all were progressives.

Scott Walker won't get a fucking cent of my money. Unless it is to buy handcuffs so that the FEDs can haul his ass off to prison.
