This tactic is not uncommon in any campaign. Unfortunately a candidate will always get a few over zealous volunteers.

It says on the WCVB video that the meeting was at a school and the people taking it down identify themselves and say that the Janitor asked them to take it down.

Really?

Tell me the name of this Jainitor - and is there a link?

Did you also contact Joel Gaines who posted the original link?

I didn't think so.

You contact him and ask how he knew to call the wrong station and get them to confirm that a cameraman who worked for a different station was their guy. You posted this garbage.

I don’t know, I wasn’t there. But if this was in the dead of night and the camera guy was using night vision stuff and was hiding behind a bush, I’d say it looked like vandalism.

But in broad daylight? Knowing a camera was filming their every move? I mean, who’s that stupid?

I gotta think they had permission from the homeowner.

Lol - SkyPilot, the resident Mormon Hater post again!

Interesting how Saints consistently resort to ad hominem attacks.

Of course, whether Sky is or is not a nice person has no bearing on the validity of the issues raised in the posting.

It is also interesting how Saints religiously avoid (pun intended) threads which clearly concern Mormonism but are embarrassing to their cause such as this one on polygamy.

I guess it is more palatable for Saints to call Sky a Mormon Hater for revealing MittWitt's stealing yard signs than attempt to explain some of the obvious inconsistencies pertaining to their faith.

You mean this video?

Romney Supporters Remove McCain Signs

By the way - I just asked the McCain campaign to confirm this story - specifically the Romney campaign lady who said on camera that she was only following orders of a "janitor" to remove the signs.

You want to stick around and hear what they say?

It’s pretty apparent that SkyPilot has an agenda and doesn’t want to consider context. We might as well be arguing this on DU.

It isn't "garbage" - it is video.

You are trying to confuse that every which way you can.

**I called News 5 ABC in Boston, whose cameraman is there on the right and they confirmed that these are in fact paid Romney staffers - not volunteers and not plants. That they would do this in front of cameras just shows how dirty and brazen these people have become. Unreal. Call for yourself to verify….**

Not good news for Romney, that’s for sure.

If you are participating, then I agree. DU is the place for people like you.

**Not only would they do this - but far, far worse.**

And the buck speaks louder than personal ethics. They are/were getting paid for doing stuff like this.

Good grief madam.

How condescending do wish to appear.

I could say the same to you here - (and you are here on Free Republic).

"I think you need to get another hobby GOP Lady."

Wow. What an impact that had.

If you support that actions on video of Romney supporters stealing signs and replacing them with another candidate - then just say so.

Your passive aggressive attacks are not affective.

I wonder whether he’s a McCain supporter or the situation allows him to masquerade as a McCain do-gooder until Romney is out of the way.

Dogging a candidate to this degree seems obsessive.

Romney: “Make all the promises you have to.




Why did the Diebold Machines in New Hampshire show large anomalous votes ONLY for Romney?
Romney got 7.5% greater votes when machines were used over ballots compared to all other candidates.
(The others had variations of .09 to 2.6%)

The standard deviation was 1.23, so 7.5% is WAY outside the norm.


Romney caught buying and awarding himself an 'award'.

"Behind the empty gestures and deceptive rhetoric, Romney was not pro-life
or a defender of marriage by any stretch of the imagination.
He was a disaster," said O'Gorman, of the board for Massachusetts Citizens for Life.
He said Romney "deceptively" claims to have been awarded
a pro-life award from the group.

"The award Romney arranged for himself with the local Pioneer Valley Chapter
was the Mullins Award for Political Leadership, not a pro-life award
and not approved by MCFL's state board of directors," he said.
"We're blowing the whistle to warn voters…
"
