Sheep in wolves clothing? new strategy?
I was thinking maybe if we contacted the media as 'freepers' saying 'those darn dems are trying to say election fraud. They are saying..."and list all the items we've discussed that point to fraud.
I mean its the reverse psychology of listening right? And maybe getting someone to report just the items us dems are claiming will wake people up to it?
I know its a stretch but apparently they love freepers right now!

4. sorry, I think they'd see through it. Freepers would be more likely to
ignore this story and express their indignation about horrible store clerks who say "happy holidays" instead of "merry christmas". JMO

6. I tried this once
I e-mailed fox and one other real Freeperland press (don't remember who it was). I listed all the Ohio fraud issues and said they were manufactured. They e-mailed me back and told me not to worry that "Blackwell had it well in hand".

Blackwell has something in his hand but I'm not sure exactly what.

8. Welcome to DU
You would have loved my post about a software program that generates letters in 30 different fonts, they get printed on different paper and mailed to CNN. I said I could use the software to bombard the network with letters that look like they are from Freepers. These were to be letters designed to confuse the networks into covering certain aspects of campaign stories.

A Freeper promptly answered on the thread that they had just sent a copy of my post to CNN. To which I responded "Great. Now CNN will be on the look out for letters that look like they are from rightwingers and they WILL DISREGARD them. I guess my plan really was foolproof. Thank you. "

Welcome to DU.

9. Lying is a bad idea. Period.
In the long run, it always comes back to bite you. And if aren't very very smart or very very lucky, the long run can come awfully quickly.

Besides, look at it strategically: the only way for America to win is if we can get past this red vs. blue mind lock, and do so on the side opposing electoral fraud. 250+ million honest Americans vs. maybe 10,000 corrupt and (by extension, cowardly) cheaters will be a cake walk. Anything else the best we can hope for is a stalemate.
