Plunderbund

John Amato interviews Paul Hackett. Original MP3 from Crooks and Liars:

Here is the latest Reform Ohio Now ad:

Most people I have seen blog on this agree it is one of the most effective. Put out by a group called Citizens to End Corruption - a group that smartly and hilariously registered “ohiofirst.org” (Ohio First is the group opposing RON). The ad even looks […]

I updated the following post with the audio as promised:
Hackett on Air America during Majority Report

I had not posted on this yet because of the audio problems, but I captured Hackett on Air America during Morning Sedition:

Tom Noe indicted in Bush money laundering probe, says the Toledo Blade. (hat tip Kathie)

Folks, this is the final push on State Issues 2, 3, 4, and 5. The opposition has been running ads, spewing inacurrate talking points, and putting up yard signs.
The time is NOW for YOU to get involved. We need help in Delaware County. Please see this post and contact me […]

I have felt for some time that Harriet was not the real nominee, but even nuttier than that is the timing. Bush’s “reluctant acceptance” of her withdrawal comes just before this:
“BREAKING NEWS: Special prosecutor is focusing on whether presidential adviser Karl Rove committed perjury in CIA leak probe, sources tell CNN.”
So the nominee […]

Today an alert Delaware activist spotted an anti-RON yard sign (thanks K). First I have seen and surely not the last as it seems the Ohio GOP has gotten into the yard sign business. Sign at the bottom right says “Paid for by the Ohio Republican Party www.ohiogop.org”. I’m not sure how […]

Well, you knew it would happen. This has been floating around for a bit, but I’ve been banging my head with my audio/video problem. Seems the opposition is in full retreat and falling back on solid ground: “family values”, gay bashing, pro-life, and that evil halloween monster “election fraud” (irony?). RON […]

It is simple really, and it boils down to this: He speaks with his own voice - much like bloggers do. The best part of it is his voice is fresh, when we live in a world of talking points and over-analyzed positions and statements. He sounds like us.
An example […]

OK, this is the second piece of drivel I’ve seen coming out of Bucyrus. I feel it is time to fire back. The first piece of parroted talking point LTE form letter crap comes from the honorable Mr. Richard J. Rees.
Richard tells us not to be misled, that these issues are not about […]

OK, this is not related to RON, Hackett, Brown, blogs, or anything really. But that is what the Plunderbund category is for: randomness!
A buddy of mine (with obviously too much time on his hands) recently got one of the latest Nigerian scam spams. He actually replied - which never really occurred to […]

Paul Hackett will be on Air America during The Majority Report as part of their Fighting Dems series. I wonder if Markos will slip in a plug for Sherrod seeing how that ad…ok, i’m done with the damned ad thing!
Update: I have the audio, but it is not letting me publish it here…argh! […]

The time is now to make a donation to the Reform Ohio Now effort. Someone has offerered to match up to $50k until this Friday, Oct. 28th. Opponents are pouring in big money (yes, from outside the state too - hypocrites!) and we need to counteract the misinformation ads - they are relying […]

…you were the spark. Rosa Parks died yesterday at the age of 92. Her name is ubiquitous as the person who helped usher in the Civil Rights Movement. Her refusal to be treated as a second class citizen on a Montgomery bus in the mid-fifties is one of the best known examples […]

RON spokesman Steve Fought will be on The Majority Report with Jeanine Garofolo on Air America tonight.
Fought should be on between 7:30 and 8:00 p.m., closer to 8 p.m.
