Fundraising Parties
September 13th, 2010
Question: Why aren’t GOP donors offended by party fundraisers and the leaked confidential party fundraising presentation?
“What can you sell when you do not have the White House, the House, or the Senate…?” it asks.
The answer: “Save the country from trending toward Socialism!”
The small donors who are the targets of direct marketing are described under the heading “Visceral Giving.” Their motivations are listed as “fear;” “Extreme negative feelings toward existing Administration;” and “Reactionary.”
Major donors, by contrast, are treated in a column headed “Calculated Giving.”
Their motivations include: “Peer to Peer Pressure”; “access”; and “Ego-Driven.”

Answer: I’m glad it is their for everyone to read. They are the ones that organized the hysteria over health care reform in last summers town hall meetings. Death Panels, socialism , rationed health care. To my knowledge they have been experts at exploiting peoples fears since George H. Bush blatantly lied to win the Presidential election over Michael Dukakis ( Willie Horton). In fact the Parole templet that was used by Massachusetts came from California while Ronald Reagan was Governor. Bush’s campaign manager ,Lee Atwater before he passed away with brain cancer called Dukakis and apologized for assassinating his character and said it was the GOP’s way of winning elections.
That’s the only thing I can honestly say the Republican party is good at and that’s fear mongering . At least the Democrats have open debate about issues among themselves like healthcare , but Republicans it’s like Sarah Palin or Rush Limbaugh give their views of an issue and the rest of the party says “ditto”.
