It may turn your stomach to watch this, but it’s important to know what the enemy is up to. Here’s Jim Messina from the Barack Obama campaign.
I’m sort of amazed this video only had 300 YouTube views, although I have no idea whether the views on Obama’s website counted toward that total.
The key points I gleaned from this is that the grassroots efforts seem to be concentrated in places where Obama ran strongly last time – so there’s no planning sessions shown in our neck of the woods but California and the Northeast are thick with them. Notably the Carolinas have quite a few, too.
I also saw that there were over 550,000 suckers who donated this time around. While that seems like a lot, notice that Mussina said they raised $86 million “globally.” I thought foreign contributions were illegal? Where is his money coming from then?
And comparing 2011 contributions to 2007 is a bit pointless as well. Remember, there was no incumbent running in 2008 so Obama was one of a number of would-be Democratic candidates at the time. As they are now, the GOP was in the same boat so comparing the number of contributors from then to now is somewhat useless.
But it’s interesting to note that they are putting together a voter registration drive now. Wonder if they were trained by the Board of Elections? If one comes to your door, hey, invite them in to sit a spell. Ask them how that hope and change is working out for them.
Of course, no Obama spiel is complete without taking a swipe at the Republicans and our so-called special interests. If he’s planning to raise $1 billion I hope those groups raise $2 billion. Lord knows where that money will come from in these economic times, but that’s my hope. He has to be stopped.
By the way, if you have $50 to spare for someone dedicated to halting the Obama agenda, Andy Harris is holding a local fundraiser on Monday night at the residence of Cathy Keim. For more details or to RSVP, you can contact her at (443) 880-5912 or sckeim (at) gmail.com. Congressman Harris will be there to discuss the health care issue. RSVP by Thursday, July 15.
