"Email your senator" is just about the most pointless waste of time aside from watching paint dry. Every time I've done it, I get a canned response that clearly shows nobody read it, just a robot that scans for keywords and generates a response based on that. "Let me tell you why all the things you are upset about are actually good things, and remember to vote for me!"

Yes, Douglas, vote for me. Yes, Douglas, vote for me.
