    The story is out there for any real national journalist to make his name. The reason they want as many people as possible to donate as low as $3 is so they have the donor information for thousands of people. Then their fraudulent team goes out and uses money from Soros and buys untraceable prepaid Visa cards and attaches them to the names of the $3 donors turning them into $100-plus donors. They launder millions and millions of illegal campaign donations that way.

    But you already have the story. Just type it up.

    Of the ones I've received over the last few days, this one is my favorite:

    Subject heading: What's stopping you, Name redacted?

    From: Joe Biden

    Name Redacted --

    I need to ask you one last thing before tonight's midnight deadline:

    If you know you're going to donate to this campaign eventually, what's stopping you from doing it right now?

    If you're going to be a part of history in 2012, it's time to get off the sidelines.

    So, before midnight, will you chip in what you can and say you're in?

    This has never been about Barack and me.

    We're just two guys. It's folks like you out there who will decide this election.

    And what you're capable of is incredible -- if you decide to do it.

    Thank you,

    Joe

    P.S. -- That deadline also applies to the dinner Barack is having with four supporters. Donate today and you'll be automatically entered for the chance to be there.

    If

    and
    http://www.cato.org/
    are still pumping out their own brand of information, something needs to be in place to correct it.

    You'd think it's satire, right, but it's not. They're real, and a lot of people are now mocking them.


    @lizzieohreally -- Lizzie O'Leary

    "One last thing from me." Now Biden's email has been taken over by someone who wants to talk after the breakup.


    @gpveis -- Greg Veis

    Barack's getting into Jon Favreau in "Swingers" territory with all these messages asking me out to dinner. Learn some game, dude.


    @nickrizzo -- Nick Rizzo

    Some of us have a theory that the subject lines are like those of an aggrieved ex. See my failed #obamaormyex


    @jaketapper -- Jake Tapper

    Your mom is hot #ObamaCampaignEmailSubjectLines


    @jaketapper -- Jake Tapper

    Seriously, dude, what is UP with you? #ObamaCampaignEmailSubjectLines

    That doesn't sound like a great strategy. It's just going to annoy people.
