Then, the PPC and you are well advised to make a presentation to Boyd on the merits and differences. He, like most of us, is likely clueless on defects of the Dean/DNC system. stan

Notice that Boyd RICHIE (below) is flopping around in 254 counties with the (DEAN) proprietary package out of Boston. It is not the “Texas VAN”, it is a generic consultant tool for “likely voter” single-member (CD/SD/SRD) campaigns featuring direct mail and robo-calls. Mikal WATTS is promoting a rival (ICKES) proprietary package.

 

Who cares which is slightly better? These packages are just wrong in more ways than I can list. Both are irrelevant to our counter-suppression efforts and to a straight-ticket county-wide
mobilization campaign bigger than half the US states. (“If all he has is a hammer, everything looks like a nail to a dullard.”)

 

(CiviCRM is more appropriate. It is a party building and mobilization tool that easily scales to the state of North Carolina or Harris County and could link directly to the Votec database. Why are we fooling with that other crap?)

 

If we do not have Votec/TEAM access in real-time, we are screwed on counter-suppression and just wasting money on the county-wide campaign.

dunning letter is characteristic of how the statewide voter roll will be
used, lawfully but misleadingly, by political fund-raisers and consultants, in
this case, the RNC.

The Escalating Constitutional Crisis

Submitted by PPCmember on Wed, 08/08/2007 - 5:00pm.

This constitutional crisis has
been escalating since the Cold War ended but concession-tenders for the Anglo-American
overclass in both parties decided to keep it going anyway. They had done
so since the Civil War and through the Great, World, and Cold Wars. Bi-partisan
concession-tending was all they – for a long time including me -- know how
to do!
