Michael Franco emailed his supporters a recent PolitickerMA.com story on his candidacy for Massachusetts GOP chair that ran and encouraged them to comment on the story, according to the email obtained by PolitickerMA.com.

Shortly after the PolitickerMA.com story ran last Friday, Franco blasted the story to his email list with a short message.

"Dear Republican & Conservative Friends," the email read, "When it is all said and done, we will reunite. We must leave it better than the way we found it. If you wish to weigh in on the conversation, click the link here for the story and to add your comments."

Some of Franco's supporters seem to have followed his advice - at the time of this writing, 22 comments have been left on the story, although not all of them are pro-Franco.
