theBlueHighwayman says: My Guerilla Campaign across the Heartland

There are thirty days left to the November 7th election and things are going brilliantly for the Democrats. All across the Heartland things are looking to be a major upset for the Republicans. I’ll bet Cheney will go to Pakistan to find Bin Laden in person to save the CONservatives and his own ass. I never assume anything though cause as we all know it’s not over till the ‘Fat Lady Sings’. She’s warming up and every Republican is running for cover. I’ve got my own campaign for the Democratic victory in full swing. Working independently one can have a lot of latitude of action.

I’m in Pittsburgh today where Jeb Bush was welcomed by protesters yesterday.

PITTSBURGH AP-- Florida Gov. Jeb Bush took refuge in a subway station supply closet when he was greeted by protesters on his way to a campaign event for a Pennsylvania Republican senator.
Officers used stun guns to subdue two protesters, saying they disobeyed orders to disperse, Bob Grove, a Port Authority spokesman reported.
"It was a very tense situation. They were very close to the governor and shouting on top of him," Grove said.
The protesters, members of the United Steelworkers union and an anti-war group, chanted: "Jeb go home."

Guess that says something about Santorum’s chances for reelection this year!

As stated above it’s time for my guerilla campaign across the Heartland just a small contribution to a Democratic victory in November. I’ve got my ‘Congress at Your Fingertips’ booklet which lists every Congressional District in the nation, a magic marker, stickers, and the phone numbers of CONservative radio talk shows in the Heartland. Armed with these simple items I add my own straw to the Republican camel’s back. The booklet tells me something about the Congressional District I’m in and who represents it. A fast check of the local race on the Internet and I go to the local bar to converse with natives maybe even plant a few seeds of progressive thought. The marker is useful on bathroom walls which is one of the last unexploited places for political messages. I won’t write here what I put on those walls for obvious reasons. The stickers can go anywhere I make these easily removable just to be civil. Some messages I’ve seen: Republican looking for young boy contact: FoleyHastert.com, Support the Troops – Vote Democratic and etc. Slogans are great and anybody can come up with a good one! Lastly calling radio talk shows especially CONservative ones is very important because even if the host completely discounts you the listening audience hears a dissenting voice. This has the effect of letting people know not everyone agrees with these idiots. The Republicans have great faith in talk radio and even maintain a page on the RNC site listing numbers of the CONservative talk shows and talking points of the day.

Well it’s time to head out! Let’s make these next four weeks count, talk to everyone you know, make sure they vote, know the issues, and call those talk shows.
