By BaxterA friend of ours occasionally receives Republican direct mail. Not because he's a Republican but because he subscribes to magazines like Forbes, FORTUNE and Money, and they sell their lists. See, the GOP makes the mistake of assuming that anyone interested in money management issues must be One Of Them — so from time to time this friend gets to see some pretty interesting Republican stuff.
Today's mail brought the latest, from the "Office of the Governor of Alaska," the envelope proclaimed. It was an invitation from Sarah Palin — complete with fetching photo and her signature ("Sarah," just "Sarah") — to send for a FREE Alaska travel guide. (Emphasis hers.)
We cats thought that the timing of this mailing was kind of interesting. Particularly since we've just heard that Governor Palin is the first speaker to sign up for next year's Conservative Political Action Conference.
And the fact that you have to cough up some detailed demographic information to get your FREE Alaska travel guide is kind of interesting, too.
If we lived in Alaska, we'd have some questions for Governor Palin about this mailing. But — she probably wouldn't answer them, would she?
