The next step will be to identify posters who are not already self identified and then confront prominent ones on the street and at their residences. This will fit nicely with the summer of violence the Left has planned for the US.

The benefit of something like this is that anyone defending Clinton can now be accused of doing so in a paid capacity in the employ of this group.

Will someone explain to me please how this Super PAC is supposed to stop anyone from posting things unflattering to Hillary? Why would anybody be intimidated into not posting anything negative. I don’t get this.

All her opposition needs to do is post a picture of the hag in response. “A picture says a thousand words” I understand, and in her case all bad.
