Call your local campaign headquarters and complain, also ask them to mail you a couple free.
Funny, I got two bumper stickers mailed to me by the Bush-Cheney '04 campaign for free.
Or you can call them at: (877) 623-8721
I think you can request bumper stickers here as well:

This IS the rate for UPS. Bush/Cheney is NOT profiting from this shipping rate. If there is a number on the website, ask if it can be shipped through U.S. mail.
"Funny, I got two bumper stickers mailed to me by the Bush-Cheney '04 campaign for free. "
So did I!
I was supposed to get "free" bumper stickers from the Bush-Cheney campaign when I mailed in my last campaign donation (checked the box on the donation form to receive them), but 4 months later, I have received nothing. But, I'll try your advice.
Due to some Campaign law...change with the Feinstein McCain stuff, it makes it harder to get free Bumper stickers. Our Local Republican Group, had to buy their bumper stickers, while before they were free. But someone suggested contacting your Local Republican Group, and that was a good idea, they can help you get a bumper sticker cheaper. :-)
WTF, is this ebay?
I bought from the site last year and dont remember shipping being that high. They need to correct this imo. Sounds like UPS is making the killing, but the site shouldnt even offer such a ridiculous shipping rate. its bad PR.
did you try this site?
The campaign should have mailed a couple out to all registered Republicans for FREE.
I bought 10 of the regular bumper stickers, and 10 of the cling-on types, to make it worthwhile. I am handing them out to friends.
The reason for this is simple---cash flow management.
The RNC's wife spoke at the grassroots rallies for Bush I attended last month and she addressed this issue.
It's going to be a close race, we don't have a George Soros 527 to tap into...so we need to manage money like never before in a national campaign.
Don't be so tough on the RNC.
As I have donated to the RNC in the past, I feel a bumper sticker isn't asking too much.
Mistakes happen.
Yes, it really does make for bad PR. Especially when you ask the question, "who's helping who?". Sends a pretty bad message and has me wondering about the current state of the RNC.
You just don't understand.
They have already wasted $150,000,000.00 plus in one of the most ineffective campaigns in history, so people like you are going to have to pay up so these guys can waste even more of it.
A lot of that money goes to copy machine expenses so they can get their resumes out to think tanks for jobs after they blow this election - which should have been a sure bet in competent hands.
And before you even respond, no, Karl Rove and Karen Hughes and Peggy Noonan are not geniuses who will rescue the campaign at the last moment.
What do you think of FR after your first month here?
