Oh I hope this is true, and it blows back. Like I say, the McCainiacs
are getting hit hard in the comment stuff and polls, and the goal is
to suppress turnout - if the Obama campaign thought it was that easy,
why keep outspending so bad? Be of good heart and vote. As I said, if
it goes one way people will say it was expected, but if we can take
this, oh, my.... it would be so funny wouldn't it? Smile, grin, be of
good cheer. Do not get dispirited, and talk to people who may be, tell
them of course to vote their conscience, because if you vote on
character alone McCain is the best choice of the two, and on
experience he has the stuff to take us through the final portion of
the surge and turnover of Iraq to the local democratic gov't and help
the economy come back (As it did in 1987-88 and after the 1990s
internet crash) but because we may yet shock the world here.

The independents are still out there and seemed to be leaning more to
McCain in a recent Zogby poll. So if you are for McCain, there may be
that silent reserve out there behind you. Vote. You have more to lose
if you do not vote than if you do after all. And smile! Because if the
indies are breaking towards McCain in some polls, and those polls
themselves may have been inflated in one way towards Obama, what would
that really say? We will find out on election day if it is one way or
the other. Because if this does go to McCain, hoo boy! It will be a
mark out moment up there with Truman.

Remember that polls had Al Gore up in 2000. They had Kerry up in 2004.
We have done much together, now we must all vote again, and smile. It
will go how it will go, but we will be able to say we voted, and if
McCain does get in there this Tuesday, it will be something.

As always, vote: And smile, knowing you have done your thing.

Hey girl. Or Guy. By the way, do you know about this person? By the
name of Sarah P? I don’t know about her and I don’t know her. I also
don’t know if what she says is true but… Aw, I’m sure you know each
other! Here’s what she has to say:

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.

If this rings a bell to you at all V4O, and if it is true, be sure to
clear off and smear the disgusting sludge and grime and putrid sick of
your candidate’s campaign somewhere else.

How’s this? I am as liberal as they come. I’m not conservative, like a
lot of the lurkers on this blog. But I am a populist, FDR liberal.
Barack Obama is no Democrat. And if you were as confident as you say,
you wouldn’t be wasting your time on us scary “repub lites”, now would
you?
I know all about Hillary’s positions. I know how liberal she is. I
know about John McCain. I know about Barack Obama. I am not a fool.
But thanks to people like you, I know EXACTLY who I’m voting for on
Nov 4th.
And news flash:
It won’t be Barack Obama.
PPS: Don’t be sad, V4B. According to Donna Brazile, you don’t need my
vote anyway. Catch ya later.

I always thought you were the most stable of the conservatives. This post proves me wrong (y. Chris Benoit).
