From an email I received last night:
Hi Murphy,
I’ve been a lurker the past month or so. I am not a member and not as brave as your members to even sign on. I just wanted to comment on a post tonight. The writer was wondering if others are getting scared of BO in the WH. I can tell, you everyone I know, friends and coworkers are very scared now that the mask has slipped and they were informed to go looking on the internet. I’ve lurked and read many blogs, most posters there are getting scared as well. You may not know it but people are indeed flipping left and right from Obama-those that are not complete Koolaid drinkers. Fear of this man, his violent and dangerous radical ties that continue to mount, trump any and everything else.
I’m in a blue state and have turned 5 coworkers to vote for McCain so far. None of them knew any of this stuff becasue it was not in the MSM. I feel for this guy Joe-being villified but it is a huge eye opener to people – both the conversation with BO and them ripping him apart for daring to disagree with him. The ACORN thing is a huge eye opener too. It has finally made a lot of on the fencers question everything BO has lied about and they go looking on the net. Nobama thinks we that have internet access are stupid enough not to go looking. It is those that don’t have it and get their only info. From the MSM don’t know the “real” Nobama. I just wanted to let you and your posters know they are far from alone. Many, many people lurk here and more with each passing day. You ladies(and gentlemen) are making a huge difference. Kudo’s to you all and keep it up!!!!!! Us lurkers may not be as brave or vocal as you but we are fighting the fight-informing the uniformed and changing votes to McCain whenever and wherever we can-in our own small way.
Folks, enough. Enough name calling and back biting. Enough bitterness and hopelessness. Most of all, enough PANIC!!! We are all still here, together, fighting for the same outcome. We’ll be together on November 4th, and we’ll be here together on November 5th. No matter what.
Want to get busy?
- Go with the inimitable Harriet Christian to Pennsylvania tomorrow and Sunday. Bus leaves Penn Station in NYC at 9am. ALL are welcome. The weather will be fine and the company even finer. More info at hchristian@infnyc.com
- Join Real Democrats on their tour of Ohio — reaching out to voters to spread the TRUTH about Obama and his Movement. Details HERE.
- Ask Freddie Brown to send you 100 flyers to distribute all over town. Send an email with your name and address to fred08puma@gmail.com
- Freddie’s reached the end of the rope trying to foot this bill — over 60,000 flyers printed and mailed already. If you can help, please send a few bucks and we’ll pay for whatever shipping/printing costs we can raise to help Freddie. Help HERE if you can, and thank you.
- Download and print some flyers or cards from our Dances ACTION CENTER. We have business cards, spanish language flyers, fact sheets, and fake Puma cash to inspire and assist your Prowling.
- Follow gogandalf and frodo’s wonderful suggestion to blog Puma comments on local online newspapers. Post links to this site and all good NObama sites you know. Spread the facts about Obama far and wide. Simply go to the media section of our ACTION CENTER, click on a local newspaper in a swing state, sign up to comment, and then blog away on any pertinent articles. Frodo, gogandalf, goalucard, utahpuma, and MANY of our longtime Puma PAC activists have told us that this REALLY works. Especially in the swing states.
Bottom line: there is absolutely NO REASON for discouragement or despair. We are here, working together, and we’re not going anywhere (well, some of us will be going to Ohio, Florida, Nevada, and Pennsylvania this weekend, but they’re still “here” when they’re “there”).
So Puma Up folks — turn those frowns upside down and dig in. It’s going to be a LONG 18 days until November 4th — but it will also be wonderful, because we’ll always have each other to rely on: for help and inspiration every single day.
