Now It's Arianna Huffington's Turn To Spam Voters
from the make-it-stop dept
Well, Peter Ueberroth dropped out of the California gubernatorial race yesterday after idiotically spamming voters. Now we can cross another potential governor off my list. I received spam today from Arianna Huffington. It appears to have come from a group they hired named GetActive who conveniently doesn't provide any email addresses on their website (don't want to get spammed, I guess). Looking through the headers we discover that the email was actually sent out via an ISP called RagingWire which forbids spam in their terms of service. Once again, anyone who thinks that spamming voters is a good method of gaining support is wrong and does not deserve a leadership role. Previously, I was indifferent on both Ueberroth and Huffington. Now, I am actively speaking out against them, as are plenty of others.

A perfect new way to sling mud at your opponents!
If you'll excuse me, I'm off to patent this not-entirely-obvious business method...

Re: A perfect new way to sling mud at your opponen
If you receive a spam and then go to Huffman's website and request to be added to her list at a different email address, the servers used in the header match up.
Meaning, it's not a joe job.
