I received the follow e-mail from grassfire and thought I'd pass it on. If you don’t know who grassfire is, I'm guessing you’re a troll.
Dear XXXX:
I have a bit of a dilemma...
As of this morning, I have 45,000 Quotes & Votes booklets sitting at the printer ready to be shipped that still lack financial sponsorship.
These booklets have been requested by Grassfire team members in key battleground states who are ready and willing to get them into the hands of key voters.
But that's just the beginning of my dilemma...
We have received so many requests that we could print and distribute an additional 100,000 booklets if Grassfire team members would step forward and help.
And since each booklet reaches 2-3 people, we could impact an additional HALF-MILLION voters in key battleground states... if we just had the funding!
if you have been looking for a way to have an impact on this election, this is it. Your gift of any amount will help us get these booklets out of the print shop and into the hands of voters in a battleground states. Go here to help:

+ + Handful of voters could decide the election!
Despite what the media is saying, I believe this election will come down to a few key states and a relatively small number of voters. If we could reach an additional 500,000 voters in the battleground states with the truth about Obama and McCain, it could make a crucial difference.
Again, we're facing a two-fold dilemma:
#1 -- We have 45,000 booklets sitting at the printer ready to be shipped to battleground voters. But thus far, no Grassfire team members have stepped forward to sponsor these booklets.
#2 -- We have so many requests for the booklet that we could print an additional 100,000 and get them distributed in less than a week... if we had funding.
That means we have the potential of reaching over 500,000 additional voters!
But time is growing short. I need to get the 45,000 booklets that we have on hand distributed as soon as possible. And the printer must know ASAP if we want to do another print run.
Thanks for your help!
Steve Elliott, President Grassfire.org
P.S. Again, we literally have booklets waiting to be shipped -- and we could print 100,000 more if friends like you step forward. But I must hear from you right away. Thanks in advance:
P.P.S. If you prefer, you can choose to have Quotes & Votes distributed in your church or community group. Go here for details:

There are folks that aren’t trolls but might be new to the political scene who are unfamiliar with Grassfire. Don’t assume.
How much are the booklets?
“If you don’t know who grassfire is, I’m guessing you’re a troll.”
Charming, I guess I won’t bother to find out who they are.
My bad. FYI Grassfire is the group that did the “where’s the fence?” commercials.
I have no idea who grassfire is, but I'm certainly no troll.
Hover your mouse over my username and judge for yourself.
Is grassfire related to A+Bert or AYBABTU?
Grassfire works on behalf of conservatives on many fronts:

Ohnoz! Nearly 8 years, 25,354 posts, and someone finally found me out!
I find it hilarious that a 2007 sign up comes on requesting help and immediately insults those he’s recruiting.
I have no clue who Grassfire is, and after this, I don’t know how important it is that I do.
What do you think, fellow troll.
Grassfire?
Troll Bump.
We should all out ourselves and save him the time?
Beast of Aaaaauuuugggggghhh disappears...
Bad guess.
In just a short time, Grassfire.org has already become one of the most innovative and impactful online, conservative organizations in the country – all because of citizens like you. We are grassroots to the core – everything we do depends on concerned citizens taking action.
Grassfire.org has developed a non-partisan Presidential Scorebook called “Quotes & Votes” that lays the records of Senator Barack Obama and John McCain side-by-side. Unlike some short-form voter guides, Grassfire’s 48-page ScoreBook goes into detail on more than 20 of the key issues.
Read more on Grassfire.org's Quotes & Votes Strategy.
Now, we need your help to deliver these Scorebooks to churches and community groups in key battleground states.
