For a political Moderate, still registered as a Democrat, I sure do get a lot of stupid emails from Conservatives. Either Mike Pence really thinks I am one of the Republican party's top 10% of supporters, or this is SPAM, sent to anyone on any Republican list. Which do you think it is? Does garbage like this appear in your SPAM folder? Note: Part 2 will be about stupid "Democratic" SPAM. --- Fellow Conservative, NEWS: You’ve been selected as being among our TOP 10% of supporters. Now that I’ve been able to reach you I wanted to get right to the point. I need every single top patriot to take a stand with me against Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. You’ve always been by my side. But, now I’m calling on YOU to act before time runs out. GREAT AMERICA COMMITTEE TOP 10% OF SUPPORTERS NAME: Fellow Conservative EMAIL: xxxxxxxxx@aol.com STATUS: NOT ACTIVATED ACTIVATE YOUR TOP 10% SUPPORTER STATUS Fellow Conservative, as one of my TOP supporters you’ve shown that you’re willing to stand up the socialist left NO MATTER WHAT. Stand with Pence! > Will you answer the call to take a stand? Step up IMMEDIATELY BEFORE IT’S TOO LATE: Thank you, Mike Pence Chairman of Great America Committee

It's spam sent to any inbox that someone hopes will not get a bounce back. Just the other day, a spammer asked me if my previous residence was a single family home I owned.... it was an apartment complex.

@TheHorse I'm not sure, they had my name and they had the address of an apartment complex I lived in. Then asked me if it were a single family home I owned. Nope.... it's not.

@kaylachan Some of the scam phone calls I get actually have my name right. That's a bit scary.

What information were they looking for?

When I get an email from former Vice President Pence, I place the email in the junk pile.

I had started to develop some respect for Pence when he stood up to the Toddler-in-Charge.

@TheHorse It bugs me when a politician asks me for money of either party since my earnings go to buy meals.

Pence probably has no clue those e-mails are being sent.

But Donald Trump, for all of his stupidity, DID appeal to the vulnerable--to the uneducated and mentally challenged. People like Pence are carefully weighing whether to ride on his coattails or reject him outright. This email could be "real."

I don't get emails like that. I occasionally will get a snail mail though. I'm registered as a Democrat; but I still get mail from my pal, DJT. :-)
