BREAKING: Clinton's Internet Director Challenges Bloggers to Cover Obama Campaign Tactics

Well, this is a first.

Peter Daou is Clinton's Internet director. I just found out that he has sent out an email to a group of bloggers with a challenge: "I challenge my online friends to call this "full assault" on Hillary's character for what it is."

I got a copy of the email he sent out so I'm going to post it in its entirety. The subject title reads as follows: Barack Obama's "Full Assault" On Hillary Clinton

I liked one of the comments (well all of 'em) but this one stuck out.

We should have a rallying cry --

No, no, no... God BLESS America!

I like that :)

I read today that Obama is getting ready to launch a full assault on Clinton's character. So it looks like the Clinton campaign is gearing up for battle.
Good Job.......no snoring allowed in this primary season!

It's a bloody good idea imo. Now why didn't I think of it :(


By doing this, they literally circumvent the MSM because as we all know, Internet > TV.

Hillary is sooooo gonna win!!

Okay, but how and what do them want us to blog about.

I think it would be counterproductive to reinforce Obama lies, even if it is a rebuttal??

Hi Jayling, for those of us with slow dialup connections (downloads take hrs.) can you give a summary of the call and what exactly was the challenge. I would think part of it is to keep Rev. Wright/Rezko in the light & not let Obama change focus. So if you don't mind a summary please (of the conference call).

Yah give the summary, I tried to read it and my computer crashed.

swannyj, this permalink may be too big also, but I'll paste it just in case so you can read the whole thing -- http://www.taylormarsh.com/archives_view.php?id=27240

From Peter Daou, Clinton's Internet director:
...The facts of this election stand in stark contrast to that statement. Senator Obama and his senior campaign officials have engaged in a systematic effort to question Hillary's integrity, credibility, and character. They have portrayed her as someone who would put her personal gain ahead of the lives of our troops, someone who would say or do anything to win an election, someone who is dishonest, divisive and disingenuous. They have adopted shop-worn anti-Clinton talking points, dusted them off and unleashed a torrent of unfounded character attacks against her. Among other things, they have described Hillary - and her campaign - as:...

...This "full assault" on Hillary comes from the very top of the Obama campaign, not surrogates and supporters.

This "full assault" is being directed at someone I personally know to be a thoughtful, brilliant, principled, compassionate person, someone the world knows as a good Democrat, a trailblazer, a lifelong champion for children and families, a respected former first lady, a senator, a presidential candidate.

This "full assault" is targeting a staff of hundreds of hard-working, dedicated Democrats, who I've had the privilege of working with for the past 14 months...

...Hillary has rightfully stated that as Democrats we should be proud of our field of candidates. And it is truly inspiring to see the level of enthusiasm among voters this cycle. We should encourage as many people as possible to become part of this process and to forcefully advocate for their candidate of choice. But there is a sharp line between supporting a candidate (and excusing their faults, which all supporters do to some degree) and conducting a "full assault" on an opponent's integrity and character. The Obama campaign's unabashed attacks on Hillary's honesty and trustworthiness should give every Democrat pause.

We are all entitled to support and oppose whomever we choose, but I challenge my online friends to call this "full assault" on Hillary's character for what it is.

A rebuttal would lead to the truth.

They aren't targetting diehard Obamanites, they're targetting the non-delusional obama supporters, the undecided and independents.

I reckon it's also a dare for them to dig dirt up on her. When they start digging, they'll uncover the truth and because it wasn't shoved in their face, might cause them to sit back and reconsider.

Forgive my lack of eloquence, but I was until recently, a former WoW player and I'm afraid the 2 years of playing an mmorpg has stunted my vocabulary as well as my ability to form long sentences :p

All in all, if it takes off, it's gonna be massive because those 5 weeks till PA will be filled with discussions and fact findings on Hillary.

Seriously, I'm beginning to wonder if she's had it planned all this while :D

It's a brilliant maneuver.

I think that should be the new rally call.

It would be amazing if during a rally the crowd starts chanting it :lol:

I think the rallying cry could use a slight tweak --

"...This "full assault" on Hillary comes from the very top of the Obama campaign, not surrogates and supporters."

Of course Hillary herself can't address these issues because the MEDIA has prevented her from even attempting to defend herself from bogus attacks
from BO because no matter what she does they use it against her.

So WE have to be the ones to get the truth out so the American people can elect based on the facts!!!

I think the fantastic "Attack Timeline" provided by the ever resouceful Jayling is an excellent place to start. The list is fantastic and should be pasted everywhere repeatedly!!!!!!!

BUT, I also think breaking the list into significant, dramatically presented bites can have incredible impact.

Identify really egregious and damaging examples and briefly refute with evidence from debates, newscasts, videos, newspapers, congressional record, etc. We should especially expose:

1. the obvious lies coming directly from BO's MOUTH
2. lies coming from immediate surrogates.
3. from supporters
4.SLURS, racial, sexist, personal from all of the above!!!!!!!!!!

Then, BLANKET the blog boards, media and you tube with the evidence.

I know I've seen excellent lists of sites and media outlets in a variety of postings on this site. Lets put that list, along with the Attack Timeline at the top of the Forum so everyone has access to it and can use it for mass saturation.

In the case of a lie, it is most important to emphasize that the VOTERS are being decieved.

In the case of sexist, racist, personal slurs against Hillary or supporters, emphasize the attack.

Some sample titles, just insert the culprits name where appropriate, ie Obama, media, advisor, surrogate, insider, etc:

Obama Attacks
Obama's Charade
Obama's Dirty Tactics
The Arrogance of Hype
Obama Hits Below the Belt
Obama's Message of Hope?
The Hate Beneath the Message
The Venom of the Inspired
Women Under Fire
What Lies Beneath
Obama's Lies Exposed
The Truth Obama Doesn't Want You To Know
Obama's Secret Out
Yes, He Can (Lie)
Obama Deals From the Bottom Of the Deck
The Great Uniter Divides
Obama's Web of Deceit
Oh, What a Tangled Web He Weaves
What the Media Doesn't Want you to Know
The Plot Thickens
Obama Stirs the Pot
Obama Plays the Card
Obama Stacks the Deck
Obama Poisons the Well
Hoodwinked!
Bamboozled!
Obama's Bill of Goods
Don't Get Fooled Again!

anyway, I better stop, I could go on all day . BO and the media have been too inspiring.

Can the truth arise from media? Can the truth arise from the blogosphere?
What is the truth? The truth is what is. The truth will be what it will be.
"Truth is what works." ~ William James.

:confused: Let us just imagine Barack and Michelle and his ?VP? and his wife installed.
:cool: Let us just imagine Hillary and Bill and VP Barack and Michelle installed.

Which is the happier family?
I say that the happy family is the one which accepts us all.
:mad:Barack does not accept Hillary, but Hillary accepts Barack.:D

That is the truth.
Who divides?
Who unites?
What wants to talk and debate?
Who does not want to talk and debate?Who is the elder? who is the apprentice?
Who is the efficient one to get things done? (Hillary)
Who is better at the ceremonials? (Barack)
Which of the two is better to have take over in 2012 or 2016 (Barack)
Who literally does not have to "get used to" the White House when she takes over in the midst of this raging international situation with a sunken economy.
Who is giving a speech on Iraq today?

An attack like this makes something very clear...that they have to attack her personality because they don't have facts to throw at her. Let them - I'm confident that undecided voters are smart enough to ask themselves "but what's that got to do with her plan"? Watch the this whole blitzkrieg implode before it actually happens.

Here is the direct link to Taylor's article:

http://www.taylormarsh.com/archives_view.php?id=27240

Makes sense now - the list of "anti-Hillary" statements Taylor lists are the exact same ones we see from Obama supporters across all websites. They have obviously been "instructed" on what things to say about Hillary to "attack" her. Sad. They are so desperate and low. How dare Obama present himself as the candidate who is above "dirty politics" when he is swimming in the mud in a major way!

It is critical that we get this information out there because the media, the source of info for most voters, is promoting the deception. Remember, Mark Penn is a pollster, but David Axelrod is an ADMAN!

Millions of serious, sincere, mature, intelligent voters have been misled by the onslaught. We all know some of them.

This is the target audience for the truth. Fanatics won't be swayed by reason but many serious women, men, and people from the AA community will!
