You are cordially invited to the largest GOP gathering prior to the 2012 Republican National Convention in New Orleans, Louisiana.  Our organization, “Evangelicals for Mitt” is a grass-roots political organization created in 2006 dedicated to Gov. Mitt Romney.  We are evangelical Christians and also happen to be Tennesseans.  My husband David and I live in Columbia, Tennessee — the Mule Capital of the World — and want to encourage other Southern voters to support the man we like to call the “Yankee Governor with Southern Values.”

In an effort to get Romney supporters to the conference to vote in the first significant straw poll of the 2012 Presidential season, Evangelicals for Mitt is sponsoring a limited number of Mitt fans by offering free tickets to the conference.  The tickets are “full conference registration,” and are a $259 value each.  WHILE SUPPLIES LAST, please fill out the information in the accompanying registration form and e-mail it to Mary Kate Brown (my little sister!) at marykatebrown@comcast.net with the subject line “SRLC.”

Your only obligation is to vote in the SRLC Straw Poll for Gov. Romney while you’re there.  Otherwise, you can enjoy the meals, the speeches from some of the most prominent leaders in the GOP (including Gov. Romney) and the festivities.

While we are going to try to get as many Louisiana Mitt supporters as we can there, I wanted to offer tickets to Tennessee supporters of Gov. Romney first.  After all, you’re the ones who propelled him to second place at the SRLC in 2006 — ahead of every other candidate except Sen. Frist.  Let’s do it again — but let’s go ahead and get that #1 spot!

Why?  We’ve had enough “hope” as we can afford with President Obama.

Hope you can make it — and it’s so much fun to be doing this again with you guys!

Go Mitt – 2012!
