The man who made Obama - Campaign Manager David Plouffe and his List
- mynameishere 18y agoObama owned the Web because Plouffe believed in a few smart kids and let them go a little nuts. "A little nuts" = teams of volunteers typing "four legs good" into youtube comment sections. Why say "a little nuts" when you can actually describe the dirty tricks going on? Why not also mention that the media's uncritical love of the guy resulted in all sorts of omissions just like that?
- tokenadult 18y ago"Because he came from a place where hard workers could barely afford the twenty-five-dollar donations they pushed across the hay bale, he immediately acquired the reputation of budget miser. There was an Axelrodism that claimed that if you went to the bathroom, pulled out a paper towel, then went to pull out a second one, it would actually be a note that said, 'See Plouffe.'"
