Anyone else getting a little too much e-thanks from BarackObama.com?
I made an online donation to the Obama campaign about an hour and a half ago. Since then I've received six "thank you" emails, all exactly the same message. It looks like the messages are being automatically sent every 10-20 minutes.

Is it just me, or has anyone else who has donated recently seen this problem? It didn't happen the last time I made a donation.

Of course, I encourage anyone who's curious about this to make a donation to see what happens to them. (As if there aren't much better reason to give! ;) )

3. Nope, must be a glitch...
My last bump was Tuesday, maybe it's just a problem for today or for just a few folks.
I do, however get at least one message per day, but this is partly for having contributed through different portals.

5. I wonder if that glitch made 6 donations for you!
That would make you a super supporter!

7. Hmmmm... a little more super than I was planning on!
I hadn't even thought of extra charges until I saw your post. I'll have to check online tomorrow when today's transactions to my credit card are posted. Of course, I'd feel bad about trying to get the money back.

At least the thank-yous stopped after the six I mentioned before. No more since I first posted this thread.

9. I always get 2 identical messages in my inbox. I was also sent 2 of the Obama/Biden photos
that were sent out recently. Not sure why, I've always gotten messages from DNC etc, but the duplicates just started about a month or 2 ago.

10. I got an 8" X 10" pic of Obama and Biden
in the mail today,thanking me for my support. I'd rather get an online "thanks" than have them spend campaign money on someone who has obviously already decided to vote for them. Spend my money where it will do some good!!
