Someone Needs to Double Check the Hoosiers for Hill Email List
I just received the following email from someone in the Baron Hill Campaign. See my response to their email below.
Richard,
I am the Republican Chairman in Whitley County (northeast Indiana). I am not sure how you got my email address but I support Mike Sodrel for Congress 100%. He is a great American and someone who voters can count on to be a statesman unlike Congressman Hill who continues to reveal himself as a liberal politician over and over again.
Mike Sodrel for Congress!
Jim

Subject: Hoosiers for Hill office opening!!!
Dear fellow Hoosiers for Hill,
My name is Richard Atnip, and I am a Field Organizer for the Hoosiers for Hill campaign. First off, I wanted to extend my sincere appreciation for all the work you did on behalf of Baron Hill’s campaign in 2006, it certainly made a huge difference. Secondly, I would like to invite you and your friends and family to our office opening at 509 Spring Street in Jeffersonville on August 5, at 6 p.m.
Jonathan Hall gave me your contact information, and spoke very highly of each one of you, and of your accomplishments in 2006. I wanted to reach out to you personally to ask for your help again this year as we approach November.
As you know, the congressman faces another challenging election against a well-funded and highly organized Sodrel campaign.
You have the chance once again to play a key role in re-electing Baron Hill. We have lots of volunteer opportunities. Whether it is making phone calls or canvassing door to door; whatever you can do, whenever you can do it, we’d love to have your help.
For those of you I haven’t already met, I look forward to the chance to do so. If you cannot make the office opening, but would like to volunteer please reply to this email. Or, feel free to call the Clark County Democratic headquarters (812) 725-7385, or my cell phone at (502) 552-3547 and we will work out the details.
Thank you so much for your time and efforts,
Richard Atnip
Field Organizer, Hoosiers for Hill

Look at all of those “@indiana.edu” and “@k12.in.us” domains in there.
Someone sign you up for their email list or has the Hill camp resorted to spamming?

This is hilarious.
As for the emails, Baron would be nowhere without lefty students, professors, and the teachers union to do the hard work for him.

I was on the mailing list but I think I got purged.
Opposition research.
