Note From Julianna Smoot – Deputy Campaign Manager – Obama For America [Updated]

Update: Politico is now reporting on this – ‘Obama Camp uses Guilt In Fundraiser Email.’ (Me: What’s next, Calling them racists if they don’t donate?)

Original post

I recently received this email from Obama for America

Steve —

According to our records associated with this email address — hopefully it’s yours if you’re reading this! — here’s your online giving history for this organization:

    — Your supporter ID number is: xxxxxxxxxx
    — Your most recent online donation was: $0
    — Total amount donated online in 2012: $0

It looks like you haven’t made an online donation to the campaign yet. If you were waiting for the last minute, you’re pretty much there.

The email goes on, of course, and ends with an apology if I’ve donated offline.

I’m not a supporter, but lets face facts; thanks to Obama we’ve all ‘donated’ offline.  Just tell them you gave at the gas pump, or the grocery checkout, or in your rising insurance premiums…etc, etc; gave from your flat or declining wages, if you happen to be lucky enough to have some.
