*UPDATE 10/28/10 I have just been advised by counsel for King Street Patriots they have now requested from the DOJ Federal Election Monitors. They site “extreme harassment of poll watchers and fallacious media reports.” It was reported to me earlier today that things are getting extremely contentious in Harris County. Here is the press release and here is the letter to T. Christian Herren, Chief, | Read More »
The last few days we’ve seen a lot of news about Obama’s OFA site, “A Project of the DNC” posting personal info online, including phone numbers and locations. There is definitely something funky going on with Obama’s site now. I have visited many times and when I tried again when I heard this stuff was going on my AVG anti-virus lit up my computer screen | Read More »
One of the things ActBlue does for Democrats is lower the barriers to entry in politics. By enabling talented candidates to link up with donor communities that are interested in supporting them, we ensure that they get the cash they need to run even if they haven’t spent years cultivating connections in the political world. And while all that work is largely invisible to the | Read More »
For those of you who have given me a “pat on the head” and told me “don’t worry about Mr. Obama’s Organizing for America , his GOTV/community organizing group (OFA), they’ve never accomplished anything” please read on. So if one considers “electing a president” nothing then than you are correct. However I am going to give you a refresher course. We have this. This is | Read More »
I ran across an interesting little piece today. Actually, it was a tweet. And I don’t know about you guys, but I blew a cork when I saw it. Screen shot below: @PatickOFA tells us on his twitter bio he is the National Press Assistant for Obama’s organizing arm, Organizing for America. We all know what this group is about. So naturally I was pretty | Read More »
Well folks, looks like I could be “peeling off” a few more here. Not only do conservatives have to contend with Obama’s OFA (Organizing for America), progressive orgs like MoveOn, SEIU, et al in massive Get Out the Vote (GOTV) efforts but now I’ve discovered to my chagrin that NBC, MSNBC and YouTube are in the mix. How did I get here? I’m not going | Read More »
At the risk of being a pest and harping on the same subject, so be it. But I can’t get across enough to everyone what a peril the OFA has become. A couple of weeks ago I and Anita Moncrief got some major traction out of a series of posts we did on the subject. Mine was The OFA Peril-Ignore at our own risk. And | Read More »
You’ve just won an all expense-paid trip to Hawaii. NOW do I have your attention? Calling all Tea Party groups, tea partiers, twitterers, Facebookers et al, it’s “Tough Love” time! I’m sure all of you have heard the words “this is serious” and these three little words have become banal to you all. Many of us Conservatives seem to be “riding high” on the presumption | Read More »
Back in February Anita Moncrief and I tried to warn conservatives, the GOP et al about the inherent and obvious dangers of the OFA and their dominant force under the auspices of Obama and the DNC. Yes, we got the word out a bit. But not enough for any one entity to counteract this group. So today I find out apparently OFA was responsible for | Read More »
It’s “not dead yet…” http://www.redstate.com/moe_lane/2009/12/18/correcting-the-record-on-organizing-for-america/ to quote Monty Python. Organizing for America is a hollow shell. It’s been a hollow shell from pretty much the moment that it stopped being a ‘sexy*’ campaign tool that didn’t actually require its members to do anything except hand over money and votes. Not an empty shell, either. OFA. Organizing for America. An arm of the DNC that operates | Read More »
