The Connecticut Democratic Committee has started a website (For all of you who have been frustrated by their official website, this is not a joke) taking aim at Linda McMahon’s bulk mailings, which have apparently been inundating mailboxes throughout the state. I say apparently, because my wife and I appear to have been exempted. We have gotten exactly one, and that was a while ago.
There’s a petition to sign, and I guess it wouldn’t hurt to sign it, so go to the link, sign, and watch the video.
I don’t know if this is an internet only campaign, in which case it’s probably just a device to build a mailing list. I refuse to believe that anyone who isn’t already committed to voting for Blumenthal would visit the site. But if they run the video on television it might actually do some good. Some people need to have irritating things pointed out before they even realize they’re irritating.
If she does the same thing with robocalls she may find that she has spent herself to defeat. Junk mail is commonplace, but no one whose ever been interrupted from a meal, or from doing something they consider more important than listening to a tape, needs to be told that they’re irritated. It’s the first thing that comes to mind. Blumenthal might consider pledging to leave our phones alone; he might gain a lot of votes that way.
