Confessions of an Obama campaign staffer
hillbuzz.wordpress.com
October 27, 2008
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 Obamaâ€
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 madâ€
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 scary to a McCain supporter. Its worked, although 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 “sheepleâ€
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 good luck.

Rush Limbaugh just read this on his show. :evillaugh:

Good find -- I heard Rush read it and was hoping I could find it.

Does anyone know how authentic this is?

Yes, best part of my afternoon commute. :-)

I heard it too.

Now, gang, I do not, for the life of me, know how the deuce the Obama campaign could put people in every poll, as this person claims, but I also don't doubt David Axelrod's abilities at all. I have heard that states thought to be competely safe, such as Maine, could easily go red. New Hampshire, as well. Not big ones, mind you, but ones with a profound psychological impact on the rest of the nation. Michigan is another one where I've heard that McCain is within small single digits. That's what, 25 EVs? And Pennsylvania is another 21.

I'm telling you, from here in the "liberal" Northeast--Obama and his minions are running scared. Badly.
Why would they show a poll with Obummer up 16, then trot out Bill Clinton to come in on Sunday? Why would Biden, Palin, and Obama all have been here in NH within the past two weeks?
Like I said, there's something in the air, and it ain't just the falling leaves.

It matters because if this is true there could be a huge landslide victory for McCain and this would easily explain it. It would also explain why the 'O' would spend $5 million on the Obamercial.

Im not 'sold' on this story - this anti-astroturfing tale could be astroturfing within itself, designed to placate people soft on McCain support from feeling that they absolutely need to vote against the Obamessiah via McCain, and could instead vote for Bob Barr safely.

Just read the DUmp and their eagerness to DU polls to get the results in their favor.
I'm not surprised.
-
Totally not surprised but I also agree with Miskie.

Rush pegged it today...it's something in the air...it doesnt' feel right...you can't fool your gut. Obama has alienated any friend he has ever had. Who is the person? no one really knows. His sheep are hypnotized..but I refuse to believe most of America is.

Whenever a pocket pollster wants Barry to look good, they just ask a few more dems. into the poll. I hear that it takes a half hour to finish one of these poll-interviews. Other than jobless democrats, who else has the time?
Frankly, I't tell the pollster to forget it, and hang up.
