At times I feel like it's just me against the world...

  • Sparky

    Posted from another thread. I’m copy/pasting it here. As if we weren’t aware this was going on all along. McCain voters, ignore the polls! ———————-
    ***********************************************************************
    Ok, I want to clear my conscious a little. Hopefully you could make a blog post to help some fellow clinton supporters out.

    I work for a campaign and can’t wait for this week to be over.

    I was doing it for a job. I was not a fan of any candidate but over time grew to love HRC.

    The internal campaign idea is to twist, distort, humiliate and finally dispirit you.

    We pay people and organize people to go to all the online sites and “play the part of a clinton or mccain supporter who just switched our support for obama”

    We do this to stifle your motivation and to destroy your confidence.

    We did this the whole primary and it worked.

    Sprinkle in mass vote confusion and it becomes bewildering. Most people lose patience and just give up on their support of a candidate and decide to just block out tv, news, websites, etc.

    This surprisingly has had a huge suppressing movement and vote turnout issues.

    Next, we infiltrate all the blogs and all the youtube videos and overwhelm the voting, the comments, etc. All to continue this appearance of overwhelming world support.

    People makes posts to the effect that the world has “gone mad”

    Thats the intention. To make you feel stressed and crazy and feel like the world is ending.

    We have also had quite a hand in skewing many many polls, some we couldn’t control as much as we would have liked. But many we have spoiled over. Just enough to make real clear politics look scarey to a mccain supporter. Its worked, alough the goal was to appear 13-15 points ahead.

    see, the results have been working. People tend to support a winner, go with the flow, become “sheeple”

    The polls are roughly 3-5 points in favor of Barack. Thats due to our inflation of the polls and pulling in the sheeple.

    Our donors, are the same people who finance the MSM. Their interests are tied, Barack then tends to come across as teflon. Nothing sticks. And trust, there were meetings with Fox news. The goal was to blunt them as much as possible. Watch Bill Oreilly he has become much more diplomatic and “fair and balanced” and soft. Its because he wants to retain the #1 spot on cable news and to do that he has to have access to the Obama campaign and we worked hard at stringing him a long and keeping him soft for an interview swap. It worked and now he is anticipating more access. So he is playing it still soft.

    This is why nothing sticks.

    The operation is massive, the goal is to paint a picture that is that of a winner, regardless of the results.

    There is no true inauguration draft or true grant park construction going on. There will be a party, but we are boasting beyond the truth to make it seem like the election is wrapped up.

    Our goal is to continue to make you lose your moral. We worked hard at persuasion and paying off and timing and playing the right political numbers to get key republican endorsements to make it seem even more like it was over and the world was coming to an end for you all.

    There is a huge staff of people working around the clock, watching every site, blogs, etc. We flood these sites. We have had a goal to overwhelm.

    The truth is here. I could go on and on, but you get the picture.

    I am saying this because I know HRC was better for the country, and now realize this. I was too late by the time I connected to her. To me Barack was just a cool young dude that seemed like a star. I didn’t know him or his policies, but now I understand more than I care to and I realize his interests are more for him, and the DNC and all working like puppets with dean. I always thought a president wanted the better good for the country. The end result I see is everyone dependent on the government, this means more and more people voting for the DNC. This means the future is forever altered. I don’t see this as america, so I am now supporting John Mccain.

    Sarah Palin is a huge threat, and our campaign has feared her like you can’t imagine. If it seems unfair how she has been treated, well its because she has had a team working round the clock to make her look like a fool.

    this is a big conspiracy and I am so shocked that its not realized.

    We released a little blurb the other day that the Obama campaign was already working on reelection and now putting our efforts towards 2012. This was to make it seem like it was above us to continue caring about 2008. Trust me, its a lie. David is very smart, but its a sticky ugly not very truthful kind of intelligence.

    Its not over yet, but I think the machine is working. And its a hill to climb.

    I will be quitting my post on nov 5th and my vote will be for John Mccain. Fortunately, my position has been a marketing position and I don’t feel I had any part of anything I would feel guilty for. But I look forward to getting out of this as the negativity and environment upsets me.

    I wish you all well, and goodluck.

    PS my name is not really sarah. but I am a female and I understand your plight

    Just saw this on FoxNews. Read it, and VOLUNTEER to do something to counteract whatever action they’re talking about taking.

    Obama Memo: Race is Tightening in Battleground States
    by Major Garrett
    In a phone interview with FOX News, Barack Obama’s deputy campaign manager, Steve Hildebrand said: “John McCain is right. Things are tightening in the battleground states.”

    FOX News obtained a copy of a memo Hildebrand sent to long-standing Democratic operatives on Tuesday.

    The memo, shown below, reveals the extensive get-out-the-vote efforts Obama’s team has underway and “urgent” needs that have yet to be met.

    Hildebrand told FOX News he sent the memo out to boost efforts in Florida but that similar memos were also sent out seeking help in North Carolina, Georgia and Ohio. He said needs were less acute in Pennsylvania.

    Hildebrand said the campaign disregards current state polls showing Obama ahead.

    “They were not always a good indicator in the primaries so we’re working hard now. We feel good but we always need more help in the field. On the ground in these states, things feel like they are tightening.”

    Hildebrand’s memo begins now:

    ” Friends – Please take the time to read this.

    After two years of working with Barack, I’ve been down in Miami now for about four weeks helping put together our final push for getting out the vote. Early voting started 8 days ago and we feel like we have a slight early advantage — but we are urgent. Polls for the last couple of weeks have given us a small lead of 4-5 points. If we are successful in getting out the massive numbers of voters that live here in Florida, Barack will win this state and make history.

    We have last minute needs and I need your help. Here are our urgent needs:

    1. People who are willing to come to Florida to do key GOTV activities of knocking on doors and making phone calls — this is our single biggest need. We don’t need anyone who wants to come down and hang out — we need workers. There are 600,000 African Americans who were registered to vote in 2004 who did not vote; 900,000 registered voters under the age of 35 who did not vote in 2004 and around 400,000 Hispanics who were registered but didn’t vote in 2004. These are key groups for us and with poor voting history, a special effort needs to be made. There are also 900,000 newly registered voters in the state — a large number are Democrats and Independents who we also need to pay special attention to. We will take anyone who is willing to talk to voters — and in Florida, with such a diverse population, we could use as many diverse people as possible. Spanish-speaking and those who speak Creole are in high demand.

    2. We also need help with our Faith Outreach Program — people who will be here before Sunday morning to attend services, possibly speak on behalf of Barack Obama and help with GOTV churches and African American voters in general. We also need help with Hispanic churches, progressive denominations like Episcopal, United Church of Christ, etc.

    3. We need experienced people who can help with inner-city GOTV efforts – mostly African American and Hispanic.

    4. We need a few people who can help with GOTV logistics — creating walk packets, managing phone banks, running transportation systems, etc.

    5. Attorney who can help with voter protection.

    6. I’m sure there are other things we need that I’m not thinking about right now — but the bottom line is we need help.

    There is a lot at stake here — 27 electoral votes, but also the future of building Florida into a majority Democratic state in the years to come. After an aggressive voter registration program here, Democrats now have a registration advantage of around 650,000 voters. In 2010, there will be critical races to oust Governor Christ and Senator Martinez. In 2012, after a new census, redistricting will take place and Democrats need to have a serious role in drawing the map. Florida is likely to pick up 3-4 new congressional seats, which means 3-4 additional electoral votes, making it even more important to keeping a U.S. House majority and an increased role in presidential races to come.

    Winning Florida could be what gets Barack over the 270 electoral votes needed to win the presidency. But it will also be a major moral boost and provide momentum for Florida Democrats to build and succeed in the future.”

    p.s. Please consider the issue of having a Democratic SUPERMAJORITY when you vote. I, for instance, will vote either a Republican or a woman (or both if it be the case) when I vote, to do my part to avoid that Supermajority. (p.s. reminding that I’m a registered Independent who voted Democrat for 2000/2004 and would have voted for Hillary. Though I have to say that with all of the liberal bias in the media, I’ve been forced to reexamine my positions on issues, feeling quite ‘Bamboozled’ by them, and am unsure of having received ANY correct or unbiased information.

    Economy? Gas prices down. Dow Jones up. People buying cars and houses, and plane tickets…mmm Obama better keeps worshipping George W. Bush

    Sparky,

    I respect your opinion. Honestly, do you believe this “Sarah person” and her “evidence”?

  • Anne Marie

    p.s. I am from PA. The state is, as James Carville stated, “Alabama between two New York cities.” I would expect Obama to win the college crowd, as well as the Philly area. However, I cannot see him taking Western, Northeastern, or Central PA. I cannot envision him taking the Catholic vote, the eldery vote, or the “hunter” vote. I cannot see him capturing a majority of the female vote…because PA women love Hillary! THEY will write in or vote for McCain. However, no one I know is GOING TO STAY HOME!

  • Sparky

    Anne Marie, many thanks for your kind words. The answer is yes, I truly believe this person, just as one of the blogs that PUMA Pundit recently posted on the former Obama writer.

    If I were working on the Obama campaign and started seeing the truly ugly side of politics along with fraud first hand, I would have doubts about this man as well.

    Incidently, our receptionist in our Dallas office took the week off to work on the Obama campaign she told me that they were all taking direction from the Obama operatives to give their time to him and take vacation days.

    I almost hurled when she told me that. The next time I visited their office, I stopped at a 7/11 and “accidentally” picked the McCain cup for my coffee and drank it all day long in front of her.

    Pounce, Pounce!

    PUMA’S! (I’M POSTING THIS IN EVERY DISCUSSION – AS WE ONLY HAVE 5 DAYS LEFT) This is a letter, with a ‘sample flyer to follow’, that if you could send it to media outlets and ‘get the word out’, would be appreciated, because for some reason my email wouldn’t do it.

    MARCH FOR MCCAIN!

    Dear (whoever – put in name of person sent to)

    I and another member of teamsarah.org, are organizing a (last-minute) NATIONAL ‘MARCH’ for McCain/Palin 2008 this Sunday, called the ‘MILLION MCCAIN MARCH’. We are planning for every city in every state to be represented to show our support for the McCain/Palin candidacy (and some perhaps just opposed to the Obama/Biden one). We are absolutely appalled at the overwhelming bias of the liberal media, and we’re making our ‘silenced’ voices heard this Sunday. While there will surely be other rallies throughout the next few days, this is a concerted effort for a NATIONAL CALL OF SUPPORT, and to oppose the policies of the Democratic candidate. I myself am a registered Independent, who would have voted for Hillary Clinton, and due to her ‘defeat’ of the nomination, and the utter disrespect which Obama showed to her and Bill Clinton, will be voting for McCain/Palin. There is also a website, puma08.com, which has ALOT of angry Hillary voters who are voting for McCain/Palin. We would GREATLY APPRECIATE YOUR SUPPORT for this endeavor, and would love to have a NATIONAL FRONT to oppose the Obama INFOMERCIAL.
    Thank you for your informative reporting, and again, please help by giving us a ‘plug’.
    Sincerely,
    Brooke Emery
    Miami, FL

    (flyer sample)

    MARCH for MCCAIN!

    If you would like to be a part of this National show of support for McCain/Palin 2008 for the MILLION MCCAIN MARCH, please email millionmccainmarch@yahoo.com, to coordinate meeting times and places. (pls. leave msg with name, your city/state/zip, and a major ‘location’ you are near, so we can direct you to the right place.

    We want to have McCain/Palin supporters at every major intersection to show all of the McCain/Palin voters that we are ALIVE and KICKING, and that the POLLS are WRONG! Let’s show that WE LOVE AMERICA!

    Anne Marie,

    I realize you didn’t ask for my opinion, but would like to respectfully add it anyway. I live in Iowa. As the first caucus state, we get tons of attention before the primaries. As a self confessed news and political junkie (you would be surprised to know how much time I spend on that – and I would be embarrassed to tell you) to amuse myself I sign up on EVERYONE’s campaign website. During the primaries I would receive over 20 calls every evening , and my email was STUFFED- I know, sounds silly but I get a kick out of it. Just like to see what everyone is doing.

    Anyway, obviously I now only hear from Obama and McCain, but I still get emails and calls from the Obama campaign and their support groups. They will send out lists of online polls and sites and tell everyone to go there and keep voting. I realize this is different than the Zogby, Rasmussen, etc. polls where they contact you, but they give same reason – do it to demoralize the McCain vote.

    So I also believe this person. If we have seen evidence of a man and campaign without conscience, imagine how it looks from the inside.
