8. Nope. They piss me off and make me feel manipulated.

And insulted. I have deleted all of them. I have already made a lot of contributions but I am done.

It's getting out of control and it's turning people off. They need to know when to back down. The more they text and email the more unimpressed I get. I will vote for them, but I am not giving any more money.

They beg me for more money the day after I make a contribution, and I have made a lot of contributions. But at this point, it is just getting obnoxious. I'm done. And their aggressive approach is not doing them any favors.
