As I’m sure you heard, the Obama campaign accepts donations from pretty much anyone with a credit card number. Name don’t match, address don’t match, no problem… just send the money.
Well, their events are structured the same way. No confirmation required. Here’s the scenario I see unraveling (not that I’m encouraging it [god bless free speech]).
You can find Obama events by cutting and pasting this link into your browser - http://my.barackobama.com/page/event/search_simple and find events near you or wherever. Then all you have to do is add a little message like “Hey, can I bring my friends from the office” or “I’m bringing the whole family” or something to the effect that you’ll be bringing in the calvery. Add an email address with something that points to a website like josh.hoskins@nylawncare.com (be creative but be covert) Then RSVP for 73, 24, 59, or however many people you want to “show up.” Then just sit back and imagine all of the cold cuts getting warm and cheese dip getting cold, in anticipation for their ‘record breaking crowd’ to show up.
If you want my humble opinion on this elections results, here it is: The polls are greatly exagerated in Obama’s favor due to early voting. I think that the majority of people voting for Obama have already voted early for him, along with a few McCain supporters who may have also voted early. Come election day, the Obama fans have already cast their vote, and the lions share of the votes on November 4th will swing the majority back into McCain’s ballot box.

wow you are ridiculous arent you? Why would you want someone to waste money because they think that someone is coming to support them? U support mccain
and that is great for you but why do you have to get people to lie about coming to an event when people are giving their hard earned money even in economic crisis to something that they believe in. Get a life and stop being a pain in the ass already. Wait til November 5th when obama is elected and then we will see what you have to say….

Yes. Why do you have to be like that? You are going to waste perfectly good cold cuts. Why would you ask people to waste cold cuts? Are conservatives all as heartless as you?
