The Conservative outside groups are spending almost all of their money on ads, phonebanking and pieces of mail. By contrast, at least most of the dems money and that of Democratic outside groups, are using their money on canvassing and GOTV operations!
Which works beter?
Join me over the jump for discussion:
Seeing how we all Know what the conservative outside groups are spending their coin on (and sometimes foreign money on ads every three seconds), we will now take a specific look at the AFL/CIO ops... Here is an excerpt from the article I will present to you momentarily:
[The labor conglomerate, AFL-CIO, meanwhile, sent out a strategy memo on Monday morning relaying that union volunteers had given out 17.5 million leaflets, "while talking to workers one-on-one, at over 4,000 worksites." In all, AFL-CIO workers had knocked on 1.3 million doors in the cycle.
In-person contact tends to be a much stronger way to persuade voters than television ads. And while the AFL-CIO is limited to talking to union members, an allied group, Working America, has the leeway to make election pitches to non-union laborers. An official with the group says they've knocked on "at least 700,000 doors in 13 cities and 9 states across the country" to date]. Huffington Post-
Alot of polls are closing, all over the state's. Today, PPP released a poll that has Blunt up only 5 points over Carnahan. Conway is running neck and neck with Rand Paul. Bennett is only down 2 points to BUCK(though, that will probably change after Buck's performance on MTP)!
And the big one, a KOS poll has Dan Quayles son LOSING by 2 points in a conservative Arizona district!
Something is happening out there!
Also, Early voting started today in several states, including Florida. You can find out where to vote by calling the Supervisor of Elections of Florida. For Example, my county in Florida is Pinellas, I found out they have 3 polls open from 10am to 6pm, Monday through Friday. It is easy and getting people to the polls ensures not only a locked up vote, but time to do other stuff, like helping GOTV on election day!
Anyways here is the article:

So, we have some good under the radar efforts going on. We also have a plan to GOTV for African Americans. DNC spending 3 million for GOTV ops. Recently, Al Sharpton and Tim Kaine went to AA chruches to talk directly to voters and remind them what is at stake, (I think they KNOW)!
Say no to a Tea bagger Government of the tea baggers, by the tea baggers and for the tea baggers. NOPE!
GOTV people!
