Democrats push to redeploy Obama’s voter database [We need to stop the infighting: focus on enemy]
Washington Post ^ | 11/19/12 | Craig Timberg and Amy Gardner

If you voted this election season, President Obama almost certainly has a file on you. His vast campaign database includes information on voters’ magazine subscriptions, car registrations, housing values and hunting licenses, along with scores estimating how likely they were to cast ballots for his reelection.

And though the election is over, Obama’s database is just getting started.

Democrats are now pressing to expand and redeploy the most sophisticated voter list in American political history, beginning with next year’s gubernatorial races in Virginia and New Jersey and extending to campaigns for years to come. The prospect already has some Republicans worried.

“It’s always hard to play catch-up,” said Peter Pasi, a Republican direct marketer who worked on Rick Santorum’s primary challenge to Romney. “It can be done by 2016. I’m much more doubtful it can happen by 2014.”

TRANSPARENCY

Meanwhile the Liar in Chief has yet to release his own background paperwork.

Prying lying bastard.

You are, of course, correct. But, sadly, I just don’t see it happening. That moron who did the unskewed polls thing now has put up another one showing what states were won by fraud.

The stupid. It hurts.

Here’s hoping your wish comes true. I am not so optimistic.

And photo I.D.

Any election fraud should be worth 10 years in the slammer for each offense.

The Stazi and NKVD would applaud the effort.

“Surprising as it may seem to some, the GOP doesn't sink to the level of the Dems in MANY areas.”

Not surprising at all... republicans never fight back... unless they are in a primary fight with a Conservative... otherwise... they only lose elections. The last election they won was in 2010 and was caused by the TEA Party. Losers play by Marquess of Queensbury Rules when their enemies are armed with nukes.

This is so creepy just like the president and the people who put him in office.

It also reminds me of John Poindexter and Total Information Awareness.

There are no checks and balances anymore.

Time to take a deep breath on the so called “Digital Victory” that Democrats scored against the GOP.

The national voters database that Democrats assembled comes directly from the world of for-profit business and marketing.

America is the unquestioned leader in these technologies.

Republicans can easily purchase and adapt these technologies.

Yes, Democrats are ahead in customizing and testing their software on their own voter base.

In part that's because Democrats are much more likely to use easily monitored social media like Twitter and Facebook.

But to suggest - as this article does - that the GOP can't catch up by the 2014 election is just silly.

“They know they can vote themselves “wealth” from the treasury, and they’re going to continue to do so”.

There is no wealth left in the treasury.

Obama has to make spending cuts, and will attempt to maintain the popularity of his corrupt democrat party by shifting the budget cutting blame to the republicans, with the full support of the mainstream media propagandists.

The republicans can’t allow him to get away with pinning the blame on them. He and his party caused this fiscal mess. They own it.

Certainly; give us a conservative whom we can back. Because running someone who ‘isn’t quite as bad as the other guy’ is failing.
