Political UberSpam
Saturday, Nov 04, 2000
Funny, I'm registered Green (though I'm not voting for Nader) and I still get emails several times a week from both the GOP and the DNC thanking me for being a loyal [insert party affiliation here], and asking me to help get out the vote for their party.

I guess it fits. My unsolicited email comes in a few flavors:

  • Make money fast
  • Free XXX porn
  • Spy on anyone

and

  • Vote for our candidate

When I got my first political spam it seemed out of keeping with the other spam I get, but the more I think about it, politics is just a superset of moneymaking schemes, sex, and surveillance. Now I understand why anti-spam legislation is so slow in coming!
