Ron Paul the wordsmith...

Relates to: Ron Paul

I just got a newsletter email from www.ronpaul2008.com and was impressed by the length of the letter, which possibly means that his audience has the patience to read along epistle? Oh, yeah I said epistle.

Anyway I was stuck by his non-presidential sounding, everyday man, tone and wordsmithery:

"Of course, they pooh-pooh our success. 'He's just registering Democrats and Independents and people who have never voted before.' Well, yes. It's called growth. We are laying the groundwork for the primaries."

Yes he said "pooh-pooh" and...

"As always, everything depends on you. Please, make the most generous donation you canhttps://www.ronpaul2008.com/donate/ as soon as you can. I need your help so badly."

The "I need your help so badly" line just seems like a strange word choice, but perhaps I'm harping on a nothing?

Just got an important email from HillaryClinton.com. Although all I did was signup to her newsletter she writes...

 


Dear ethan,

I want to personally thank you for getting involved in my campaign. It is critical that we stay in touch as fast-moving events shape this important election.

The stakes couldn't be higher, as you well know.

From a vice president who acts like he is above the law to a president who fails us at every turn, this administration has driven our country far away from the American ideal. And not a single Republican candidate can provide America with the clean break and fresh start we so urgently need.

But we can - and that's what this campaign is all about. So let's show everyone what we can accomplish together. Here's one thing you can do: display my special gift to you today - a "Hillary for President" bumper sticker!


Get your bumper sticker here...  Does the fact that Hillary's bumper sticker seems alittle wider then a standard sticker mean anything?

Barak email newsletter
Added by ethan on Oct 11, 2007 - add as a friend | PM me
Relates to: Barack Obama

Not sure if this is interesting or not, but thought I'd just post some of the Email Newsletters I get from the official pres campaigns.  This one is from Obama's website which I joined....

 

 

Dear Ethan,

Watch this video about the blank check too many Democrats gave George Bush five years ago today:


The time has come to end the war in Iraq. Join us this Saturday, October 13th as we go door-to-door and Canvass for Change:

My.BarackObama.com/Canvass

I want you to think back and remember something. Five years ago today was a dark day for our party and for our country. Too many Democrats followed the politics of the moment and voted to let George Bush invade Iraq.

The consequences are clear. Too many Americans dead, too much money spent, a civil war raging in the heart of the Middle East, and America less safe than before.

But you can do something about it.

In 48 hours we're organizing a nationwide door-to-door canvass to end the war in Iraq. Find a canvass near you and join us:

http://my.barackobama.com/canvass

Many Republicans and even a few Democrats refuse to admit the mistake they made five years ago. And now we're seeing history repeat itself as the drumbeat builds for a war with Iran.

Once again, some politicians are more afraid of appearing weak than they are of being dragged into another war.

It's going to take your personal involvement to stop the march to the next war, just as it's going to take your commitment to stop the one raging now.

The time has come to end the war in Iraq. We've already spent five years paying the price for one bad vote.

Join us on Saturday and let's do something about it:

Barack
