Failed Strategy AGAIN!

Drop A Dime
Back in September of this year, the Obama campaign created a website called "AttackWatch." Similar to its predecessor created by the White House, this website was established to fight negative remarks about Obama. Recall that the White House had a similar website when they were JAMMING OBAMACARE down our throats. It's purpose was to have readers drop a dime on anyone who said anything bad about ObamaCare. It was highly criticized for being just like the tactics used by Fascist governments in past world history. (But Secular Progressives don't read history - they re-write it to fit their views!). Consequently, the White House website collapsed under its own weight and was soon abolished.

Progressives Don't Learn
In spite of the fact that this SNOOP&THREATEN strategy was a failure, the Obama campaign thought that it would be a good idea to use the same strategy to help the Obama re-election. Oh well. Not our problem! It's sometimes difficult to learn from your mistakes!

So regardless of the previous experience, they moved forward creating a website and a Twitter account that set-out to repeat the same failed strategy. This time, they wanted readers to give names, email addresses, and website links - JUST LIKE LAST TIME! Anyone who made political attacks against Obama would face the wrath of his campaign.

Ridicule Backlash
As soon as the AttackWatch website was launched, it took fire from a variety of sources. The underlying theme from its critics was that it was creating "BIG BROTHER." Instead of arguing the facts, the strategy of AttachWatch was to intimidate the people who opposed Obama. AttackWatch encouraged individuals by saying "if you see something, say something." They asked readers to snoop on friends and give details on their contact information.

Soon the backlash produced a hilarious video that went viral on the Internet. It makes the point of the true nature of the AttackWatch strategy.

Results?
Well there are only two things you can conclude on AttackWatch;

1) There probably aren't too many attacks against O-BLAME-O.
2) The website and Twitter accounts haven't been a high priority of the campaign.

Both sites have been absolutely SILENT for almost a month. Let's hope they finally learned their lesson and will let a dead horse alone for a change we can believe in!
