Right now the repugs - rove and his henchmen included are plotting

[samsingh]

at throwing a lot our way

- more lies
- attempts to steal votes in key states
- some unnamed October surprise
- more lies
- more lies
- attempts at getting the msm to lie for them
- creation of more panic
- attempts to stir up racial tensions

let's make no mistake. the gop has not given up, they are doing everything to mobilize all their evil and corrupt operatives to steal this election one way or the other.

we'll need to be vigilant, energetic and focused.

over a month to go still - a lifetime in politics.

1. "Rove's "brand" has been permanently destroyed,let's

not allow ourselves to consider him larger than life or an evil genius ever again.He's ancient history.

[samsingh]

4. rove's brand is about corruption and fear. he will still be trying.

he has nothing to lose. no conscience. he is dangerous.

[Pisces]

2. I think the rats are jumping from a sinking ship. Rove is going to disassociate

himself. They are going to regroup for 2012. They hate McCain. They will let him take the fall.

[samsingh]

6. rove has a lot to lose if we win. this will make him fight as dirty as he can

[OKNancy]

3. You know what? I don't think it will be so bad.

The reason is: I don't think they care for McCain that much.
They may lie and stuff, but I bet they won't risk going to jail for the likes of McCain.
Really, the right-wing can't stand him.
It makes me laugh to think about it and the pickle the Republicans are in right now.

[samsingh]

5. i hope you're right.

[Webster Green]

7. If they try to revoke the coming landslide, people will be in the streets..

They're screwn! :nuke:

[samsingh]

10. but is see the fucking msm making statements like

3 or 4% higher in the polls really means they're even - setting up for another election theft. in reality, a 3 to 4% difference is an electoral college landslide.

8. Rove is a talking head on Fox.

I doubt he has a lot of free time to work for McCain's faltering campaign. They probably call him for advice occasionally but I don't think he's an active member of their campaign.

[samsingh]

11. i think that's just a ploy. mccain has been imploying rove's tactics

[anonymous171]

12. Yeah but without Rove's discipline they won't work.

Schmidt was apparently trained by Rove, which is why the McCain campaign is employing Rovian tactics. But as you can tell they aren't nearly as effective as they were in 2000 and in 2004.

[samsingh]

27. i hope you are right

[melody]

9. This is a tidal wave they can't stop n/t

[samsingh]

13. it's getting there

actually, the great thing is that if we recognize the impending victory, any result other than that will be suspicious. We accepted Gore/Bush, even though we know the repugs stole the election.

this time we won't accept it. maybe that's the antidote to the rove poison.

[melody]

15. well put n/t

[Arkana]

14. Karl Rove's brand was destroyed with 2006.

He was unmasked as mortal.

I'm not saying we should not be vigilant, because we should. Voter fraud is an ever-present possibility.

But we cannot, and I repeat CANNOT, allow it to put a damper on our enthusiasm or our efforts. I don't give a shit if the GOP hires drunken clowns to beat and mug Democrats at the polls--we will go to the voting booth and we will do our damnedest to cast ballots for Barack Obama in November, come hell or high water. I will not sit and listen to someone tell me that I shouldn't fucking bother because "THE REPUBLICANS WILL JUST STEAL IT AGAIN GUYZ WHAT'S THE POINT." Fuck that and the horse it rode in on.

Karl Rove is good at what he does, but he is human, and he is flawed, and he can be outsmarted, and he can and WILL be beaten.

[BlueIdaho]

16. We need to fight like we are ten points down.

Take nothing for granted - the republicans will do anything, say anything, cheat, lie and steal every vote they think they can get their hands on. The election is still a long way off so we need to keep our heads in this battle until AFTER the election is over.

[Parker CA]

24. Thank you!!

Confidence is great, but this thing is far from being over. The mud the pukes and team rove have slung thus far is going to look like cake frosting compared to what they will hurl at us in the coming weeks and final days of this election. The pukes will not go down without a bloody fight. They are worried, and fear is an amazing motivator. They will use their fear in any possible way to exploit this election and the electorate to their advantage.

Keep working as hard as you were during their convention and during the following days. Expect some down trends in the polls, this is not going to be easy, especially the final week or so.

Keep the end goal in mind. Work. Work. Work. Never, ever underestimate your enemy, especially in the days of their greatest desperation.

Perseverance is our key to success!!!

25. Delete. Duplicate post.

17. Republicans..

They've lost their minds completely. They've been ridiculous for ages, but they've reached new levels of mental incompetence. I saw this guy on a TV news thing, feeling so proud of himself for basically saying, "We should not play the blame game. Democrats are to blame for the economic problems. We need real solutions, bipartisan, not more blame game. Democrats are to blame for playing the blame game.". It was sheer stupidity, but he thought he accomplished something... like he scored a point for Team (R)idiculous.

There are many perfectly decent Republicans. A shame 5 million bad apples can spoil the whole bunch.

[Riddler]

18. They're going to do something, remember McLiar guaranteed he was going to win in the last 3 days

[WeDidIt]

23. Remember, you're talking about the same arsehole who claimed

the fundamentals of the economy are sound only last Monday!

[EC]

19. Alot of meetings and conventions this month of the racists

So I suspect a lot of racism...I'm hoping it backfires on them, big time....We've got to get undecideds to vote early when we convert them...

[gravity]

20. I'm not afraid of Rove this time

Obama campaign is much stronger than Gore or Kerry ever was, and know how to deal with Rovian politics.

[ShortnFiery]

21. Democrats who volunteer "the legal distance" from the voting locales have XL plain black t-shirts

for people hit blindsided by being turned away from voting because of a political t-shirt (Obama or Obama/Biden). If we had several XL plain black t-shirts, these good people could just put them on top of the "political ad" shirts they are wearing - and go back in and VOTE.

[Parker CA]

26. This should have a dedicated thread!! Very good idea!!!

[WeDidIt]

22. "Karl Rove is SEVEN FEET TALL!"

"Yes, I've heard. Kills men by the hundreds. And if HE were here, he'd consume the Democrats with fireballs from his eyes, and bolts of lightning from his arse."

[samsingh]

28. we've let him get away with all his bullshit over the years

we let him steal the 2000 election.

[BlueIdaho]

29. That's not the only lie in Braveheart... but then - that's just a movie

This is real. It is a fact that the republicans will try to lie, cheat, and steal their way to a victory in this election.

We need to work our asses off and be prepared to go nose ot nose and toe to toe with these assholes if we want Barack to win.

Fight like we're ten points down -we can celebrate at the inauguration in January.

[BlooInBloo]

30. That's it. We're doomed.
