2008
SD GOP, no sense of humor, and no layout design skills
I got these mailers on Saturday. You would think that this message would be on the outside of the mailer to be the grabber; nope. They were on the inside.
The below graphic was on the outside of the mailer. WTF? First off, I have been a graphic designer for over 15 years, and have worked on numerous direct mail campaigns, and I will have to admit, this is a pretty lousy layout.
There is nothing wrong with not having a message on the outside of the mailer, but it should be very non-descript in order to get people to open it. Plastering your address in 14 pt. type is silly. I think most indies and dems threw this mailer away (the people you were trying to target) as soon as they saw the return address.
I don’t know who your graphic artist is, but they need to go back to school (or maybe you need to pay them more . . . yeah right).
Why John McCain will lose ‘In a Walk’
Besides having a bunch of ignorant, idiotic, arrogant, greedy bastard lobbyists running his campaign and picking Governor Moose Drool as a running mate there is a bigger reason why John McLame will lose this election; not hammering home the issues that are known to be true.
John has thrown everything but the kitchen sink at Obama, but it has mostly been stupid fluff and weirdo associations. Are they important? Yes they are, but most Americans don’t give a shit.
The one thing the McSpain campaign has yet to bring up is the fact that both houses of congress will be controlled by Democrats, and having a Democratic president would eliminate checks and balances when it comes to legislation.
Maybe the RNC told him not to talk about it (so they could keep their seats). Maybe they enjoyed the first 6 years of Bush’s presidency when they had the same advantage. Who knows? But I think it was fundamentally stupid not to bring it up. I think most voting Americans understand balance of power, and I think John could have made a good argument.
Even though I am an indy who usually never votes for a Republican, it still concerns me that we will have both houses controlled by Dems and the White House too.
Who will be watching the hen house? No one.
Best ‘TOKEN’ of 2008 Election Cycle; Piper Palin
I’ll have to admit, even though I think Sarah is dumber then jellied moose nose (yes they eat that shit in Alaska) I have been quite impressed with her daughter Piper. She is like a miniature, female GW Bush. Do whatever, whenever, who cares, I’m cute (spit combing her little bro’s hair and waving to the booing Philly Flyer fans, comes to mind). Sarah knows it to, that’s why you see Piper by her side anytime the MSM trys to ask her questions. You can’t ask hard questions when someone has there grade school aged child standing by your side.
So Piper, without little fanfare, I congratulate you on your award.
Seriously? Really? This woman could be our President someday?
I don’t know if I should laugh, or if I should cry.
Listen to Sarah Palin get prank called like the Maverick she is.
