NRCC ROBO CALLS now hitting 20+ districts! Desperate last gasp tactic.
Ok, great that so many of us are paying attention. The rethugs don't care if the ROBO calls result in voter suppression/intimidation or even if its flat out illegal. Anything to win; damn our constitutional right to vote. They figure it will be sorted out after the polls have closed. The ultimate in hypocrisy and sleaze. The good thing is - WE ARE WATCHING ya rethugs and IT WILL NOT WORK!

3. Add Pittsburgh and Jason Altmire...
At least one call a day...

"Hi, I'm calling with important information about Jason Altmire..."

It goes on to claim Jason Altmire will oppose making the tax cuts permanent. I never listened to the end. Once it came as I was trying to make an outgoing call, and the robocall wouldn't hang up until the the script ended (seemed like a minute...I remember thinking it was odd I couldn't get a dial tone). My caller id shows "Data Error" for the calls.

Funny thing is I'm not even in the same district.

4. This seems like a strategy destined to backfire.
Seeing as the only thing most Americans hate more than politics is telemarketing, the fusion of the two just doesn't seem like it will work out well at all.

5. Most think it was designed by Republicans to backfire on Democrats....
