Subject: A Different View
Dear Jeff,
When I received your campaign mailing a week ago, I immediately sent you $100 and said I would be happy to work with you in some capacity.
Your compelling story and clear passion made me think you have the story and the drive to give Kolbe a serious challenge.
Now that Kolbe is out, I have changed my mind. I think a more seasoned, more well known candidate could nearly assure us a victory, while you, strong as you appear, are unknown and untested.
I don't know what the next weeks will bring, but I hope you will consider the possibility of moving out of the US House race and looking at a state level position. We have many open slots that need strong candidates, and your strengths would make you an incredibly viable candidate. If I'm right that the money and the campaign talent will be sucked up by others in the US Rep race, you'll be fighting an uphill battle there, while if you find yourself a state level office to run for, you will find many experienced, energetic people like myself who will be eager to support you with money, time and energy.
