Raising Conservative Bucks

The proverbial little old lady in Peoria found two letters in her mailbox. The first was from a group called the Committee for the Survival of a Free Congress (CSFC), whose name, perhaps the worst in political history, was chosen by a committee. The letter was signed by Representative Thomas N. Kindness, a conservative stalwart to be sure, but hardly a familiar name in Peoria.

The second letter was from the Republican National Committee and the Republican Congressional Campaign Committee. It was signed by Ronald Reagan, perhaps the most respected Republican of our time and certainly one of the very best fund-raisers for conservative causes in modern history.
