Obama/Clinton: I had signed up for VoteBoth.com in the past

by aliveandkickin, Mon Jun 30, 2008 at 08:51:57 PM EDT

Sometime back I had signed up for voteboth.com that was created to push Hillary to the VP spot. I along with many Obama supporters believe in the dream ticket and have the deepest regard for Hillary. So having said that_ here is what I received from that mailing list a few days back and thought if they are any here w/ similar/like minded opinions for the dream ticket, you may want take a look at this mailing.

I know this diary will be infested w/ the few Hillary haters who proclaim unity when it suits them or the great talking point heads in here who will bash this idea down. But hey we can't have a perfect party: ) . I just happen to believe we had 2 awesome candidates this time around from our party.

Dear Friend:
You and over 35,000 other dream ticket supporters petitioned Barack Obama, urging him to pick Hillary Clinton as his running mate. We've been out there every day, making the case for an Obama-Clinton ticket, writing to the Obama campaign, talking to our friends, and taking our message to the media and blogs.
Now it is time to take the next step--talking to Sen. Obama.
Join me and so many others in recording a video that tells Sen. Obama what an Obama-Clinton ticket means to you.

http://www.voteboth.com/TalkToBarack
We each have personal reasons for why we believe that Hillary and Barack should run together.
I have gotten to know Hillary over the last five years. She is a smart and caring woman who has spent her life fighting to make our country better. She is also the toughest lady I know. Hillary is exactly the person we need on the ticket with Obama.
What does having Hillary on the ticket mean for you? Tell Barack Obama.

http://www.voteboth.com/TalkToBarack
Sending a video message is quick, easy, and powerful. I am going to make my video today, and I can't wait to see yours!
Sincerely,
Adam Parkhomenko

Founder, VoteBoth.com

Re: I have a suggestion

Yah....the other one had 50+ comments and he deleted it.

Guess he's hoping for a better reception this time round.

I'm off to bed so I'll not get to see if his hopes come true.

Re: I have a suggestion

Kevin , I would but I sure called it right? Do you see any unity folks in here so far. It's all about the disruption even on " unity" dairies.

part of the reason

is because you keep pushing the hot buttons. Why not take a week off of pushing hot buttons and posting stuff that really matters or helps bring "unity"?

I'm guessing that he doesn't want the admins to see that he was ridiculing a user by saying that his wife was the bread winner and asking him how it feels to be a "house boy." Just a guess.

He's gotten in the habit of deleting his diaries every time he loses his cool and starts going on a rampage within them.

That's what I like most about A&K's trolling habits: he trolls his own diaries!

A&K FTW! ;D

Did he delete the one where he lambasted poor people and sounded like a Republican decrying the welfare state? I liked that one, if only as proof that he's gone round the bend.

Hahha, allegedly, he's a "retired" 39 year old software designer.
I think he has multiple personalities (they come alive as sock puppets) and they're fighting amongst one another for control of the host body.

Re: Obama/Clinton:

Here are the original comments from the first time this diary was posted:

My first comment and the thread that followed:
http://www.mydd.com/comments/2008/6/30/2 21458/580/5#5

Rate any comment from that thread and you should then be able to see all 50+ comments.

I agree with whoever it was above that said that aliveandkicking keeps a diary up until he realizes he has 'lost his cool'...and then he deletes it.

In this case...it is my opinion that his slipping and showing his obvious disdain and lack of respect for working women was the reason he deleted and reposted.

For what it is worth....I do not think that rankles and a&k are the same troll. As to the other sockpuppets....I've not yet reached any conclusions....have not witnessed enough of the shenanigans. Either way...I do agree that Admin needs to take a more proactive... prophylactic... role in monitoring the site.

Yawn

I reject your premises of

I know this diary will be infested w/ the few Hillary haters who proclaim unity when it suits them or the great talking point heads in here who will bash this idea down.

Most of the negativity you'll see is because you are a sock-puppeteer of an high level. If only you wouldn't have let your mask slip you might be on your way to an epic status.
