Democrats seek 'Macaca' moments
Politico ^ | June 29, 2010 | MIKE ALLEN |

Posted on 06/29/2010 7:50:14 AM PDT by rightwingintelligentsia

The Democratic National Committee is seeking “Macaca” moments. The party today is opening a website, www.accountabilityproject.com, designed to recruit and display embarrassing audio and video of Republican candidates, as well as information about their schedules and copies of their mailers.

Campaigns have long made videotapes of each other, using “trackers” who follow the opposition from event to event. It was a young tracker who shot the video footage of then-Sen. George Allen (R-Va.) that wound up sinking his campaign.

The DNC hopes campaigns and journalists will use the footage in ads and news coverage. The site targets both 2010 candidates and 2012 hopefuls.

“[R]egular citizens can upload video or audio they’ve captured at pubic campaign events, and they can upload event information for upcoming campaign appearances by Republican candidates so others can attend and hold Republicans accountable of they don't tell the truth.,” a DNC official said. “Unlike YouTube where you can only upload video, … users can download high quality videos from the site for clipping and using for their own projects (web videos, ads, etc).”

Biden’s Caca alone should have its own site. He serves so much of it everyday.

And so it shall be!

Accountability Project! What a joke! Coming from people who are never held accountable for their actions, it’s a real joke.

They already have gathered a store house of made up information on normal people that they can whip out when the normal person becomes a threat to their established power.

The difference is the MSM will run Republican gaffs non-stop and will completely ignore anything off color that
a Dim does.

The nutroots are asking for it: a deluge of Pelosi/Reid uploads. That this is beyond foolhardy, even a child could see
