Author Brad Thor: Obama Campaign Planning to Proclaim Early Victory to Demoralize Romney Supporters
The Blaze ^ | 11/5/2012 | Jason Howerton

Posted on 11/05/2012 3:03:23 PM PST by notaliberal

New York Times best-selling author Brad Thor, based in Chicago, tells TheBlaze that the Obama campaign may be planning to preemptively announce victory in the presidential election based on early voting numbers in an attempt to “demoralize Mitt Romney supporters.”

Citing a “very solid source” in Chicago, Thor says the Obama campaign is looking to make it appear to voters that they have “this thing sewed up and are less than 24 hours to victory,” according to his source.

Meanwhile, team Obama will also urge voters to get out and vote so they can say they were part of the important 2012 election that resulted in a second term for Obama.

While Thor can’t reveal his source, he told TheBlaze multiple times that the source is very reliable

Sounds like a dumb decision to me. Anti-Obama voters are going to vote no matter what. To me it just deters the Obama voters from voting because they’ll think they have it in the bag.

I remember the exit polls that showed Bush was going to get destroyed by Kerry, but they were wrong and didn’t impact voting.

I like Brad Thor’s novels. He is one of the good guys.

This is just another part of the propaganda offensive by the 0bama regime. No matter how discouraged you may be, GET OUT AND VOTE!

Isn’t that what supposedly happened to cause the ‘hangin chad’ incident?

Someone called Fl early, and it affected the ‘Western States’.

You know the LIBS, worked once it will work again.

As soon as it looks like they can call New Hampshire for Obama.
If Romney is close enough there , or even ahead, this ploy won’t happen.

Though the media will give it their all if remotely possible...

Several TV stations including MSNBC have already “accidentally” posted odumbo as the winner on their screens.
The dims and the disgusting media are going to use any slime trick they can dream up to influence the brain dead public.
The media in this country is the number one enemy of the people.

Fascinating- but not surprising.

I remember 2004 BEFORE polls were closed and the exit polls showed Bush losing to Kerry. We were in FULL MELTDOWN. The one guy that kept strong and sane was- of all people- Hannity. He would not give in to the hype and I have always remembered that. Most of the time I can’t deal with him- but he kept me and a lot of people grounded that day.

With O and his minions we are dealing with a degree of immorality that would make Bill Clinton blush. There is no guilt or shame or sense of right and wrong in these people.

God, bless America. Amen.

“Someone called Fl early, and it affected the ‘Western States’.

You know the LIBS, worked once it will work again.”
*********************************************************************
Some of the TV networks called Florida for Gore early (before the western Florida panhandle’s polls closed—they are on central time and the rest of Florida is on Eastern time. The panhandle is one of the more conservative parts of the states and a number of panhandle voters who were still waiting in line to vote went home.

It ALMOST worked.

I have a good friend who served in our Special Forces tell me that the SpecOps community hates Obama with a passion.

If he tries to claim victory while people are still voting in the east coast states, he will just look desperate. Once the east coast time zone is done voting, there will be nothing he can do to change the outcome. Ohio, Michigan, VA, FL, NC and NH will be in the can. Panhandle FL people won’t fall for it this time. Nice try, though.

It did worse then that, it affected the vote in Florida.
They called with the polls STILL OPEN in the panhandle and Bush lost a lot of votes as people in line went home thinking it was over.....
