Listen up folks! Excellent strategy for shutting up repugs bashing
Edited on Tue Sep-02-03 02:46 PM by caledesi
of any of our candidates.

After reading about Delay trashing Dean, Kheph said that he would donate to HD and then write Delay and tell him.

So guys, this is the strategy: Every time your candidate (whoever it is) gets trashed, you donate to his/her campaign and then immediately email the basher.

The bashers lose, either way. Let's get them "on the run." <thanks to * for these profound words>

I LOVE this idea.

Thanks Kheph, for the idea.

edit: usual stuff

3. Keep the donations small and give until it hurts.

4. That's right! They don't have to know how much.
Just keep doing it and emailing the basher.

I am SO excited about this.

5. LS - Just major bashing (like the Delay thing).
Just make a small donation and then email basher.

Again, I am so excited about this.

6. This idea originally came from the Dean Official Blog
One of the bloggers (wish I knew who) came up with the idea of donating to Dean instead of feeding the trolls who came to post on the blog. It has cut down the trolling TREMENDOUSLY. We hardly get any now. It is a briliant idea.

7. If you want to make it more fun. . .
Donate in their name and with their e-mail address (or snail mail would be even better if you have it).

That way, not only do you give the donation to the right candidate, you also piss the freeper off even more by ensuring that they receive campaign mail :)

9. Should we do the same for...
the Democrats who bash our candidate? Clark supporters are going to be homeless after a week of bashing.

10. No, no Dems. We are all in this together and I think most of
us agree that we will vote for whoever is nominated.

<For myself, though, I don't think I could vote for Joe>
