A New Low for Republican tactic s

[lovuian]

A Republican friend in Chesterfield Mo got mutiple calls at 0800 in morning then at 11 pm then at midnight saying it was the McCaskill campaign office...

I told it was Talents office doing it to his own voters to make sure they get ticked off and vote

She had to admit she was thinking about not going out and voting... and this did make her ticked off at
McCaskill

just letting ya know the Lowest of the Low tactics of the Republicans

1. Republics LUV to play phone games.

Push polls, mis/disinformation, etc. I've come to the conclusion we should consult teenage boys to ascertain some creative ways to annoy the opposition. I say teenage boys having raised one and know of which I speak. Beavis and Butt-Head. Jackass. The possibilities are endless.

2. Does your friend have "caller ID"

If so, did she save the number?

[lovuian]

3. Actually does

I'll have her check it out she maybe surprised...

4. .

Please post an update then. Many more must receive these calls so one might have to contact the media?

6. Don't trust the caller ID.

If the calls came from a call center with a PBS, the outgoing Caller ID string can be set to whatever they want. I used to work in a call center.

5. We should have a 'Dirty Tricks' forum for this election cycle.

Sort of a clearinghouse for all the reports that will be coming at us on how Republicans are violating the spirit, if not the law, of our elections. They will do anything to game this election, they know what will happen if they lose control of one of both Houses of Congress.

7. Ask her to get the phone company to tell her...

...who really phoned.
