Re: District Ninety Sizzle
It's Christmas in October. Check out all this direct mail I got from my friend in District Ninety Sizzle (97, Fort Worth). Two major themes emerge from the barrage of mail pieces that are flying into mailboxes -- cracking down on illegal immigration and cutting out all the "pork" in the budget. (One piece actually has a huge hog on the front).
 KVUE: Elise Hu Voters in District 97 get treated to a weekly direct mail blizzard that looks like this |
The majority of the mail comes from the candidates with the most money, which is no surprise. So you've got Craig Goldman and Bob Leonard dominating the mailboxes -- Leonard even rushed out a piece featuring the FWST's endorsement just two days after the endorsement ran in the paper.
I'm seeing a lot of pictures of candidate families, a picture of Young Craig Goldman shaking hands with former US Senator Phil Gramm (who he worked for back in the day), and of course, the hog. The hog runs in Republican Mark Shelton's ad, and it has a talk bubble above it that says "Fat? In the budget...? If you only knew!"
Just curious if there's any mention of the speaker/leadership in any of the mail. Is support or opposition to the speaker in anybody's piece?
Joe, if you see this, I posted a response to your question in the form of a new post.
Thanks!
