Subject: Election Day Creep Out!!
To: Debbie Schlussel
Dear Debbie,
Had a young girl come to our door on election day. asked for our son by name. Asked if there were any other obama supporters in the house. Question? Is obama already sending out his “civilian security squads”? (I guess that is what obama means when he says,”I want you to get in their face.”) Will they send someone next time to make sure that I am on birth control, like they do in china? In thirty years of voting, I’ve never had someone pounding on my door? Whats up wit’ dat’? I am resigned to the fact that McCain will lose. He seemed to plan it that way. We’ll end up being led by an elitist former drug dealer who foments class warfare and intergenerational hatred. I just hope they do not shut down your site. The Truth is out there…
Sincerely,
Ruth

G-d help us, America. Get your applications ready for the position of Block Captain.

So…the Republicans never had anyone go door-to-door?
Bush swept up in 2000 and 2004 because of very well engineered get out the vote campaigns…how is this different?

A leap from a knock on the door from an apparent canvasser to ‘civilian security force’? Good greif. I will acknowledge that there are over enthusiastic supporters for the candidates equal to the number of people who see boogey-men around every corner.
My only hope is that we ask more questions before we assign motive and make fewer assumptions.
(NOTE: It is absolutely fair and necessary to ask Sen Obama to expand and clarify his remarks on his ‘civilian corps thingie’.)

G-D you George Bush. This is on YOU. Please don’t come back to Texas. You are not welcome here.

Wow, what a mentally disturbed individual you must be. Let the craziness begin. I hope all of you extreme paranoid people who live on hyperbole and innuendo are marginalized by the huge amount of people who are moving forward and working to clean up the mess left by your hero, George Bush.
