Your call. I personally would probably wait until the hype died down, and then shoot them one. I think it just depends on how well you connected with the person, and whether you think they'd still want to speak to you if you were to be denied.
"They are all former investment bankers that were laid off in the economic collapse that Nancy Pelosi caused. They have no marketable skills, but by God they work hard."
