Sen. Ben Cardin (D-MD) desperate for Obamacare Supporters to show up tonight at Townhall

Below is an email chain forwarded to me. It originated with a Ben Cardin staffer. The Cardin staff is desperate to make his Senate townhall tonight look like a rally for Obamacare.

Isn’t this astroturfing, Senator? You, a United States Senator, using a network of liberals to gin up support for Obamacare?

And let’s put this in perspective: This means Senator Ben Cardin supports Obamacare and knows he can’t vote for it without an astrotruf campaign of his own.

Note that the original message at the bottom was sent by Rev. Jerome Stephens, Statewide Field Representative for Senator Ben Cardin to Denise Riley at the AFL-CIO. Riley’s assistant Kim Tucker then blasted it out.

If you are in Maryland, show up tonight.

Sounds like a town hall worth showing up for.

LOL, pretty soon the goons wont even come.

Here’s a good ad:

All SEIU goons come to town hall meeting tonight. Your photo of you intimidating little blue haired old ladies will be all over the news tonight and your children will be ashamed of you tomorrow.
