Team Obama 2012 setting up in city

WASHINGTON — President Obama’s team made it official on Thursday: his 2012 re-election campaign will be based in Chicago and will formally kick off in March or April. White House Social Secretary Julianna Smoot will step down to become a deputy campaign manager.

Obama headquartered his 2008 national campaign from a high-rise at 233 N. Michigan Ave., an ideal location at the time since Obama was an Illinois senator living in Chicago and his top adviser — David Axelrod — and his finance chair — Penny Pritzker — lived in the city and Chicago was a central jumping off for the early primary states.

Axelrod, now a senior White House adviser, will be leaving Washington at the end of the month to return to Chicago for the re-election campaign. A lease has not yet been signed on headquarters space.

**SNIP**

The new DNC executive director will be Patrick Gaspard, who now runs the White House political office. That office, DNC chair Tim Kaine said Thursday, will be closed and all political activity run out of the DNC and the re-elect campaign.

One time, several years ago, the company from which I have retired held a "Teamwork Retreat". There were various and sundry "teamwork" exercises and confidence building exercises that we all had to do, but perhaps the most telling - and the most applicable in handling this SEIU ACORN business was the "water fill" exercise.

We were at a resort, with a lake...the set up a 55-gallon drum next to the shoreline on the "beach", and gave all six of us a plastic bucket.

Our job was to fill up the drum from the water in the lake, using the plastic buckets.

The catch was, the 55-gallon drum was filled with large holes...holes that were about 1 inch square.

So, we started...two were dipping water and the other four were wrapping themselves around the drum, trying to stop up the holes.

It was futile, and in the end the only thing that worked was dipping and filling so fast that the water was going in the drum faster than it was coming out...and we filled it to the brim.

Now I said all that to say this - ACORN and the SEIU and any of the other obama mob squads can do what they want, but as long as we turn out to vote in large enough numbers, all the "holes" they make in the process won't make any difference.

We vastly outnumber the libs, the trick is to motivate enough people to turn out that any cheating they do will have no effect on the outcome of the race.

IF obama manages to cheat his way back into office for another four years, America is doomed. I hate to say that this "long-legged mack daddy" is going to do what powerful countries and regimes have failed to do, but he's doing it.

I'd like to see a movement started of carrying small (symbolic) plastic pails around as a signal to anyone who looks that the owner of it intends to carry their share of water in the 2012 Conservative "bucket brigade".

Volume overcomes deceit...put it on your "bucket list".

The great election heist of 2012 is well on it’s way.

So will anyone be watching their every move?

We would be very foolish to underestimate the Muslim Marxist’s chances of re-election. It is tempting to think that the economy will still be in the toilet, gas with be $5+ per gallon, and Americans weary of Obamadinejad’s incompetence will throw him from office. Most people are easily influenced by the liberal media (they get their news from Jon Stewart for God’s sake!) and the media will pull out all the stops for their favorite muslim candidate in 2012. Furthermore, the cheating will be unprecedented. We need a candidate who can overcome the margin of the Democrat cheating. I haven’t seen that person yet.

We are not going to be able to overcome massive cheating and they know it.

The trick will be getting out in front of the cheaters.

Good Luck to us! We are going to need it.

Some more links to articles about Patrick Gaspard. I'm wondering if this man had anything to do with that SEIU march against Walmart last week.

So when can expect Eric "Racism is My Middle Name" Holder to go after the Chicago mob like he went after the New York mob?

Oh dear God does he ever stop? We have a thug in chief and no one peeps a word and the media protect him.

The media and DNC want a split with the tea party and GOP SO BAD so they can win. I pray the primaries do not split us for an Obama win.

Possible goals on their agenda...

--- Massive voter fraud and registration. Over whelm the ballot system. Absentee voter registration schemes. Large amounts of unaccountable Internet funding. Obama branding and propaganda.

Holder: Chicago Mob? What “Chicago Mob”? The Alan Dorfman execution? Never heard of it. Casino money-skimming in Vegas? Never heard of it.

The Task Force who nailed the New York Mob (friends of the Clintons - that’s a long story - LIUNA), was probably set up during the Bush years and continued under Obama.

They did a good job. Hopefully Holder won’t screw it up like Reno did to the LIUNA indictments (why not, LIUNA mafia people gave the Clintons and the Democrats at least $10,000,000 in campaign donations in the mid-1990s).

The Dems have been so mobbed up that when a NY political leader took a crap, out came a Mafia turd.

PS: Re the Rhode Island,New England mafia leader being arrested. COmmunist attorney William Kunstler defended his predecessor, Raymond Patriarca many years ago. Reportedly got paid about $500,000 but Raymond went to jail, literally for life, anyway.

Only Bill could rip the Mafia off and live to enjoy it.

Who says treason and crime don’t pay, and pay well?

If he gets in again, that’s it. We need to prepare for the fall of our Union. We should be preparing anyway, but that’ll really be the sign.
