New GOP E-Mail - Smear the media and attach photos of kids with McCain & Palin

[TornadoTN]

I'm used to getting the junk e-mail from the idiots around the office and elsewhere. I've grown quite good at disproving them and sending out a nice little correction e-mail. For a while, I haven't received many and in fact, none at all for the past couple weeks.

Then today I open up my e-mail box and find a message titled : "Awesome - bet ya didn't hear about this on NBC!"

The text was very short - just a comment about how "NBC will never show real people with Obama because real people don't support him" and it had several photos of McCain and Palin with some kids and families.

I need some photos of Obama & Biden doing the same. I've seen some powerful photos of Obama with kids but I haven't been able to dig some of them up. So share your favorites with me so I can get them back out with my response.

1. Well.. in my sig line you can steal one of him with his OWN family..

not sure if that's what you're looking for though!

2. Thanks!

I'm in need more of on the campaign trail photos with voters and the general populace. The photos of McCain and Palin in this e-mail were with donors but they somehow claim these are "real" people - I need something more powerful.

10. I think that their tactic of pushing Palin with kids is going to back-fire

When I saw pics of her yesterday meeting with world leaders, I felt that she really appeared to be a mom who won a contest or something. The video/pics, imo, really illustrated that she is out of her league. With the economy and foreign affairs messes that we have, I really think that voters are finally looking for the ticket who is best equipped to handle these problems. When the gop first rolled out Palin there may have been some who swooned over the idea of a hockey mom in the WH, but reality is beginning to set in.

IMO, the more pics of Sarah the mother they float around, the more independents will look toward Obama/Biden.

11. Thank you everyone - this is perfect

I'll post my response e-mail in a bit. Gotta catch up with work and then I can give this the attention it deserves.

13. I like this one a lot.

14. The 80,000 people in Denver

weren't 'real'? What were they special effects?

The folks at the auto plant in MI chanting Obama 08 when McCain passed through weren't real? More special effects?

15. Include this pic.

Not a family pic, but if it's the "one of us" thing their going after, I think this one says a lot.

16. Yeah, no one can stand to be near him.

17. There's a great shot out there of him in the middle of an ocean of people...

...a close-up shot, at a speech somewhere around the end of the primaries. It was posted many times in GDP, so I'm hoping somebody else who has it handy will post it.
