Spam from the Republican National Committee

I just received unsolicited email from the Republican National Committee!

I am confident that I have never been a member of the Republican Party, nor have I opted in to any of their mailing lists. Furthermore, the spam was sent to an old address which I do not actively use, but which is widely used by spammers. The RNC, it would seem, has been harvesting or purchasing addresses to promote their candidates.

The mail, purportedly from George W. Bush, tells me "This election matters a lot. The Republican Party needs your help today to win." Sorry, George.
