Over the weekend it was reported by KDVR’s Eli Stokols that three members of mayoral candidate Chris Romer’s closest advisers decided to withdraw their support over the tone the campaign had been taking.
Given that the Romer campaign didn’t send out a blast e-mail about it, it’s not hard to see why it was under-reported. But what if they had? I think it would have gone a little something like this:
Dear _______
We’re 14 days out until ballots are counted in the runoff election. Can you believe we’re almost to the finish line? Neither can Chris.
That’s why we’re writing to you today about some exciting new moves the campaign is making for no reason at all–certainly nothing related to a call from a former Mayor, current Governor.
Three of our “kitchen cabinet” are leaving. Can you donate $5, $10, or even $3,000 today to replenish our shrinking cabinet?
It’s been a long push to the finish, and we know that with your support we’re going to make Chris the next mayor so we can start humbly expecting more from cutting red tape and not engaging in the politics of personal destruction.
Sincerely,
Team Denver

I won’t be promoting it for this reason, but maybe one of the other FPE’s will be more generous.
mine was so much funnier than that one!
See what you think.
except that, as of now (and I logged in just a couple of minutes ago) Pols has one up too (which I know you’ve seen). Which is too bad, because yours in more informative. I just don’t like cluttering the FP… maybe I’ll make an exception…
Pols has a good one up and it links to mine if anyone needs more info on the players.
I agree it’s not FP quality, but it’s funny. I’ll throw in a can of beans for his cabinet… Herman Cain will throw in all the Muslims who aren’t allowed in his presidential cabinet.
That’s great news. Chris Gates sucks. He treated me like shit when I first met him. Kept me from being active in the party until he left.
Don’t really know the other guys.
