DUmmy Omaha Steve Campaigns For Disability AND Political Office
« on: September 03, 2011, 09:54:29 PM »
DUmmy Omaha Steve is multitasking like crazy. He's trying to punch his ticket for a disability scam, while launching his political career.
The big guy has a full plate. Meanwhile, the big campaign is slowly building momentum. It's a juggernaut:

Omaha Steve is ramping up slowly, but ramping up just the same
 
Today my treasurer and I opened my political bank account. George is married to a state central committee member. There are a few things to do in the next couple months before really kicking things off.

Marta will be running a low key campaign we hope will raise below $5,000 for the much simpler bookkeeping requirements.

More news as it happens on the DU. Stay tuned.

I doubt Marta will have any trouble keeping her donations below the $5K mark.

Ditto for franksolich, who's also warming up an engine, getting ready to shift into gear.

6. Door to door campaigning is the way to go.
   
Meet every person in the district, smile, don't give them any controversial political information, and ALWAYS ask for their vote.

In other words, don't tell them what you really believe.


Where is that link where Steve wrote to a Communist rag?  It will sure be a shame for Steve when his opponent gets that information.

[edit]  oops, found it:  http://www.wsws.org/articles/2011/mar2011/dawe-m30.shtml


And to think unions and socialists used to be on the same page. I’ve always backed socialism. Together with labor the team passed workers comp, unemployment insurance, and several other important worker protections. I’d be interested in any reply, update, correction, etc., you might have or publish.

Also, somebody needs to grab that page, and any other copies of pages that would be valuable to Steve's opponent before they go down the memory hole.

Well, unfortunately, since my fellow Nebraskan spurning my offer to be his campaign manager, he's going to find himself running against two opponents--the one on the ballot and franksolich out here, telling the truth.

Remember, not even a woman scorned has the fury of franksolich scorned.

It'll be interesting to see which is going to be his tougher opponent.

Why does your link not work?

I was going to screen-capture it, but your link doesn't work.

Sorry about the link.  I was working at first, and then I went back for an edit, and maybe I inadvertently messed up the link. 

I probably have more edits than anybody else.  I always think of something after I post.

That's a winner if he's running for some democrat party position.
It may not sit real well with normal Nebraska voters.
I wonder if he'll put it on bumper stickers.

Ooops, my mistake. DUmmies lie, always, Ummies lie.

Door-to-door?  Isn't he too (cough) "Disabled" (cough) to do that?  Aside from the obvious social impairments, I mean.

Wouldn't want to harm the chance of climbing on board that ol' gravy train, now would we, Steve-o?

9. Nope   
   

Marta and I moved to a suburb almost 5 years ago. My user-name was so well known, people said I should leave it as is. I'm being generic about our races until we actually file. We don't want to give a heads up to our opponents until we pick the time.

Not tomorrow or next week or even next month, but soon enough.

I still can't believe that he attended that campaign management seminar, and the first instruction wasn't "don't be posting on democraticunderground."

What are the chances for Scott Houghtaling googling his name during a campaign season?   I mean, they have to be pretty slim right OS?    So no worries that Scott Houghtaling  will learn you are officially beginning to scam your fellow DUers out of their public assistance cash to line your campaign coffers to take Scott Houghtaling on.   

Your secret is safe with us.   Scott Houghtaling <------ dude won't know what hit him, am I right?

It's a shame that Scott Houghtaling will never know until the "time is right."   We here at the cave would certainly support a fine decent civilized upstanding Republican candidate such as Scott Houghtaling for city council.

If only Scott Houghtaling knew that.    :bawl:
