Andrew Breitbart on Mobies
Some discussion from Nice Deb, including mention of our very own Concerned Christian Conservative andros, who, seriously, is a gen-u-ine conservative, he just wants us all to give this Obama feller a chance, and he fears for the future of our movement, what with its Reagan worship and all.
I don't know how big a thing this is now -- I know for a fact there was, in the months before an election, an organized campaign (organized by whom, I don't know) of Concerned Christian Conservatives popping up on rightwing sites to tell us all the GOP was doomed and rightly so. I know it because all of them recited their talking points according to the same three-step script. (Note I pin it on David Axelrod there, the "Master of Astroturfing," and still do suspect that, but of course any number of lefties have had this idea and tried it in the past -- "mobies" are thus-called because electro-sissy "Moby" suggested doing this way back in, what, 2003?)
As Nice Deb notes, it's a pretty stupid thing to do, because they're almost immediately spotted. They don't really have any idea how we think and therefore what conservative arguments ought to sound like. We, of course, know how they think, as we can't avoid it; we're fed the liberal talking points from an early age by our media.
