Liz Mair worked for Walker briefly, had to leave quickly because she was outed as a Cheap Labor Express operative, hurting Walker’s stealth amnesty campaign.

[Lurkinanloomin]

The point is not to defeat Hillary or elect Yeb!, the point is to prevent us from electing anyone who would stop The Cheap Labor Express.

[Norm Lenhart]

Words mean things. Words lie “No matter what” for example.

But will any of the cancervatives admit they were wrong? Nope. They will go vote for ANYTHING with an R on it then come here crying about how that awful Obama destroyed everything.

Never once admitting their precious lesser evils paved the road for him with garbage like this.

Quite a history!

How did she get along with Palin? . Does Sarah have the goods on her?

[Vigilanteman]

Sounds more like she was a saboteur for Walker's campaign. I thought he was really one of the most qualified of the bunch and couldn't figure out why he went soft for the cheap labor lobby. Very disappointing. I really thought he had one of the best chances of uniting conservatives and the GOPe wing before he seemed to go all in for the later.

[maggief]

Mair generally supports Palin, perhaps because Mair “loves” McCain.

This Is How You Beat Donald Trump
Liz Mair

Interesting article...

GOP CONSULTANTS BECOME CAMPAIGN ISSUE
Controversial hires dog Bush, Walker, Perry, and Paul.

By Jeffrey Lord - 3.26.15

Former Texas Governor Rick Perry has hired Steve Schmidt, the ex-McCain campaign guy, who a while back took to the set of NBC’s Meet the Press to say:

“Our elected leaders are scared to death of the conservative entertainment complex, the shrill and divisive voices that are bombastic and broadcasting out into the homes.

“And then when you look at the demographics, who is Rush Limbaugh talking to? He is talking to a demographic that’s white, 65 plus, and rural. It’s not what the country looks like anymore.”

(snip)

Schmidt wasn’t the only one going after Rush, either. Jeb Bush has signed on longtime GOP consultant Mike Murphy. Murphy too has been unable to resist the temptation to show up on Meet the Press and trash Rush. Said Murphy:

“The biggest problem that Romney had was the Republican primary, That’s what’s driving the Republican brand right now to a disaster, and we’ve got to get, kind of, a party view of America that’s not right out of Rush Limbaugh’s dream journal. We’ve got to look at reality.”

(snip)

The real lesson in the Liz Mair affair is that Ms. Mair may be the first consultant this year to get pitched by a GOP candidate for her views but she will not be the last. The Mair episode opens a new chapter in GOP politics in which the choice of “rented strangers” by a candidate’s campaign will be seen as more than a sign of professional wisdom because of the consultant’s area of expertise. Consultants themselves will now become potential issues all by themselves. Every word a consultant has ever said, written, or tweeted will be examined with an eye to what the candidate in question really believes. And, even more to the point, the choice of consultants will be seen as how that candidate would staff and run the White House and rest of the federal government if elected.

The idea that the expressed views of a Republican consultant on any issue of the day somehow doesn’t represent the candidate’s point of view is now dead as the proverbial door nail.

Welcome to the new world, consultants. You created it.

[maggief]

ps. Has Mair consulted on any WINNING major campaigns?

[Jim Robinson]

Trump by a landslide over the criminal America-hating, constitution hating, marxist/fascist totalitarian control freak felon Hillary Clinton!!

Go, Trump, GO!!

"Planning a Guerrilla campaign."

Not gonna work.

tsk, tsk, tsk

This is some video of here on MSNBC snarking Trump and showing off her linebacker neck, starting at 2:15:

[JediJones]

I did a Twitter war with her and then mined and retweeted her old Tweets for some of her past Trump comments. Made sure to retweet all the positive ones she made (surprisingly found a few mixed in among the snark and comments about his hair).

https://twitter.com/JediJones77/with_replies

Also found an article where she outlined her whole “how to defeat Trump” strategy. She said in a Tweet that her “numbers” tell her to keep attacking him on socialized medicine support. She keeps insisting he currently supports “single payer” health care.

[JediJones]

I’ve always had Trump #2 behind Cruz. Usually on other sites I defend Trump against libs and RINOs. But I’ll always defend Cruz from Trump supporters and try to sway Trump supporters over to Cruz if possible. I’ll always defend Trump from attacks from his left even though I’ll attack him from the right sometimes.

[Freedom56v2]

She is pro-gay RINO who worked for Walker campaign tho I think Walker got rid of her due to the outcry of his conservative base.

Sheesh. She makes me embarrassed to say I ever was a Republican.

Whether one likes Trump or not, this is disgusting. Shame on her and her funding sources for stooping to such low-brow tactics!!!

[Freedom56v2]

These dickweeds aren’t afraid Trump will lose to Hillary, they’re afraid he’ll beat her.

Spot on!

“It”s loosely organized and highly confidential,”.

So much so that it’s being discussed on the Internet.

[Jane Long]

Check out these Liz Mair/guerrilla Trump attack tweets. (h/t Despot of the Delta)

Interesting that Lou Dobbs mentioned (h/t RitaOK) the Koch’s are involved (if I understood your post correctly) as well as ‘others’.....

[Jane Long]

Thanks, JJ. Great find.

I know you are a Cruz supporter, and I appreciate you calling out these lowlife smear jockeys for the hit pieces they’re putting out about Trump.

[RitaOK]

<<< The first rule of Guerrilla Campaign is don’t tell anyone about Guerrilla Campaign! >>>

While you certainly DO have a point, it seems the “gorilla” word describes the secret funders that are unknown because this is an LLC, and not a PAC.

This way I’m sure they can take Democrat war chest money, Clinton Foundation money, Soros money, foreign money, UNIVISION money, etc.,
