They stole the Tea Parties, now they stole the Moneybombs

[AdamT]

Fundraising email I just got from Michael Steele/RNC. They actually use the term Moneybomb.

In defiance of the will of the American people, Nancy Pelosi and her Democrat cronies have authorized a government takeover of your health care. She even considered an unconstitutional backdoor process that involved passing the bill without a vote on it before she realized that she could simply cajole, bully, and even buy off members of Congress in order to get enough “yeas” to ram President Obama’s socialist scheme down our throats.

Nancy Pelosi has gone too far. She is no longer serving the American people and the Constitution of the United States. She is beholden to left-wing special interests, and does not represent the will of the people. It is time to fire Nancy Pelosi.

In order to fund our efforts to oust Speaker Pelosi, the Republican National Committee is launching a Money Bomb to raise the resources we need to gain 40 House seats. If we gain just 40 House seats, we will fire Nancy Pelosi. Please donate, and then tell your friends to donate, so that we can end the tyrannical reign of the most aggressively left-wing Speaker in American history. Donate, so that we can fire Nancy Pelosi!

Sincerely,

Michael Steele
Chairman, Republican National Committee

yeah i got the email to sent it to spam

[Taco John]

That's predictable. We still started it.

[FreedomRings]

1) We spell it moneybomb, they don't.

2) We have to create new ideas faster than they can steal them.

Didn't Huckabee steal the word first, he had those shortly after we started?

I know Huck's supporters did, I don't think it ever went out in an "official" piece of campaign correspondence.

Just goes to show how much of an influence we're having on the establishment. We'll be in control one day.

[Vessol]

I'm gonna laugh my ass off if Glenn Beck calls for a money bomb, considering he attacked us back in 2007 for using the term.

hey, i just donated $4000, who's with me?

O I bet his hypocritical a** will.

[Fr3shjive]

Unless special interests are allowed to contribute I doubt they'll make very much.

[newbitech]

thing is, we come up with the best days to do them, our timing is impeccable. Right after the passage and signing into law of the life insurance bill? Anniversary of the Give Me Liberty, or Give Me Death speech?

So yeah, we have the best ideas for themes, the best timing, and most importantly THE BEST MESSAGE. Let "them" keep stealing our ideas, sooner or later they'll $#@! up and implement some liberty and freedom. <--nah, "they" can't be THAT stupid. Can they be?

[Inflation]

That picture cracks me up. Steele is grinning like a proper RP fan boy!

I think we've already won the debate, and the hearts and minds of the people.

Now it's just a mopping up exercise, removing hostile pockets of Neocon and Progressive resistance.

[AdamT]

So if their "Money bomb" effort is to "fire Pelosi" does that mean they'll take the money and help the Liberty candidate running against her - John Dennis?

[catdd]

Well hopefully this will cost her the election out in Ca.

[amy31416]

Alan Grayson is using the term as well.

[UtahApocalypse]

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

This was predicted and furthermore it will continue to happen more. This is not something to ignore. For the 2012 campaign, every single republican candidate will have their own moneybomb, whether they are in-line with liberty or against it. No longer will online moneybombs generate as much free press as they did for us in 2008.

Please visit the thread linked below for specific suggestions and ideas on how to adjust our strategy for promoting and supporting liberty candidates, particularly for 2012. It it perhaps the most effective postmortem thread I've seen as it focuses on solutions.

Pay special attention to the first post in the thread which is a list of 18 specific strategies that will be changed or continued from the way things were done in the 2008 campaign. Please keep the thread bumped.
