Barack Obama, Internet Meme
— andy

I think Mickey Kaus is onto something here:

Why has ObamaÂ’s public campaign been so ineffective for the past month? CouldnÂ’t someone digitally sophisticated and untankedÂ–e.g. BuzzfeedÂ‘s Ben SmithÂ–make a good argument that the President was led astray by the overhyped reality and promise of Internet Politics.

Now, the Ben Smith part is kind of silly, as BuzzFeedPolitics appears to exist solely to further OFA's stupid Internet meme-pushing, but the rest seems right on time.

His team is so Web-savvy theyÂ’ve forgotten how to campaignÂ…. After all, ObamaÂ’s aides are probably all on Twitter. Inevitably, if subconsciously, theyÂ’ll tend to skew in favor of ideas that get them big instant Twitter love, as opposed to old-fashioned themes that will win over the unconverted.

The past few weeks have given us #BigBird, #Romnesia, #Bayonets and others. It's like his entire campaign is a bumper sticker-covered Prius.

What's also notable about this is a fact Kaus failed to mention: Team Obama tried this meme-pushing exercise all summer on Twitter, and conservatives hijacked and mocked their hashtags mercilessly. Every time a new one popped up, Ace, Iowahawk, Cuffy, the Breitbart crew, Treacher, and a cast of thousands on Twitter used biting humor to rally our troops against Obama while smothering any pretense of efficacy this may have ever had as a serious campaign tactic.

This should come as a shock to no one who pays attention to the disastrous results of the left's policies, but the fact that their strategy never worked didn't prevent them from going full-speed ahead with it.

So here we find ourselves a little over a week away from the election with Obama running on fear, Internet memes and faded glory. And the left can't understand why they're losing?

Obama had a meteoric rise from nothing to become the top worldwide trending topic in 2008. But now, he's #OLD.

The problem with the meme is that Twitter, or Facebook... or blogs... are only seen by those who already either support you, or want to argue with you.

I don't do Twitter... nor does anyone I work with (and hell, we're an IT company)... nor my neighbors... nor do any of my close relatives, or my kids...

Politics on facebook has become a contact sport, and led to many many unfriendings....

And the Web gives you the ability to go to sites you WANT to go to... and NOT see crap you don't wish to....

So.... new Tech? Helps with your supporters.... but its NOT going to reach outside of your already existing group.

Yes it was a poorly run campaign by the Obama minions, but no one in the media actually helped them by giving them criticism. None of the media fellatio helped Obama, because he thought he was a genius.

They sandbagged Obama and themselves constantly because they think we can all be "messaged" to death and we will all succumb to this. If you repeat a lie often enough and loud enough, people will come to believe it, is their operative thought.

Indeed, the phony polling data, the silly weightings used that reflect 2008 turnout, the uncritical treatment of everything "Obama" has actually made it harder for Obama to get re-elected. Sure, they thought the polls were right, sure they thought they were leading, sure they thought they were unbeatable.

They didn't look at the returns from 2010. They didn't have the sense to learn the lesson that Bill Clinton learned after the 1994 mid-terms. They doubled down on the stupid. They deserver to be consigned to the dust bin of history.

57 And yet it seems likely that he will get a greater percentage than Carter 1980. Yeah, but remember that that was a sort-of 3-way race. Reagan's popular vote count wasn't that high, 50.7%. Of course, Anderson wasn't all that popular, but he was a convenient outlet for those who were just not going to vote for a Republican. Without a 3-way race, it's really impossible for a major party candidate to get less than 45% of the vote.

FnF was a fumble and a false flag operation that caused deaths but not directly by those in charge.

Benghazi was a misdirection that would've achieved what they wanted if not for the heroes that defied orders.

It was premeditated murder. That was the goal all along for someone(Stevens) to die covering up Obama and his Muslim advisors funneling weapons to the Muslim Brotherhood dressed up as Al Qaeda.

The truth became known because of heroes on the ground and the outrage by their fellow warriors at the calumny and treason from the top.

Did you see the idiots they profiled in today's edition? Write-in votes for Ron Paul, a woman who's sick of seeing Medicaid people at the hospital she works at refuse to apply for jobs and demand more free stuff, but she's voting for Obama again? And they got some asshole sociologist from UIowa who can't figure out why the middle class is angry at freeloaders instead of rich people* to explain that because we're angry, we're going to choose wrong next month.

* Many rich people are also freeloaders. Springsteen calls himself a farmer to get tax breaks and ag subsidies. Algore's received millions upon millions in federal subsidies and "green initiatives." Democrat scrunts in Congress funneling millions upon millions to their husbands' businesses. UAW big-wigs. On and on and on. I hate them.

109 >>A narcissistic sociopath will not admit his genius ideas could be wrong. Funny how what's old becomes new again. Narcissism from the Greek work Narcissus, is the story of a Greek man who became so in love with his image that when he saw his reflection in a pool of water he could not stop staring at it and died. Rhamnusia or Nemesis on the other hand was the goddess of revenge, punishing anyone who became overwhelmed by hubris and arrogance. Romney may not be suffering from Romnesia but our Narcissist in Chief is definitely being hammered by Rhamnusia.

Since the tolerant Left deals with those with other opinions ever so well, you end up with where we are today.

147 Not sure about the "meme" idea. That might just be a run around from The Worst President In American History. Consider this: Why IÂ’m voting for Romney By MICHAEL GOODWIN To understand why IÂ’m switching, it helps to understand why I backed Obama four years ago. I am a Democrat, but vote as an independent. I see people, not parties, so ObamaÂ’s label played no role. ... Where he totally fooled me was his claim to be a pragmatist, not an ideologue. He spoke of uniting the country and I believed he was capable and sincere. That he won 70 million votes and more than two-thirds of the Electoral College spoke to his appeal. He failed as president because he is incompetent, dishonest and not interested in the actual work of governing. His statist policies helped consign millions of Americans to a lower standard of living and his odious class warfare further divided the nation. He had no intention of uniting the country Â— it was his Big Lie. read the whole piece; it's worth it http://www.nypost.com/p/news/local/why_voting_for_romney_orTltVz75rPUIuWCfgNpnJ For those that always want to know how an Independent is thinking... even though this guy is a "registered Democrat," he is an Independent.

Dave Barry wrote a hilarious "description" of football some years ago. His description of a basic play went along the lines of: The players on both temas first hold a meeting to decide who will perform the traditional celebratory dances after the ensuing play. Then the players all line and the quarterback shouts some numbers. The ball is passed to the quarterback and all the players run into each other and fall down. Then certain players jump up and perform the traditional celebratory dances. And so on.

My youngest son goes to a high school that has a really unusual cross section of kids - income, race, etc.

I think one reason that a lot of white kids emulate the Young Black lifestyle is fashionable rebellion that is part of being a teenager. They know it drives their parents up the wall, so they do it to annoy us. As they mature, they can leave it behind. Unfortunately, a lot of black kids don't.

My teen-age high school son does it to a degree, so I usually just make fun of him instead of "forbidding" him to do something, like when he wears flip flops when it is rainy and cold outside. He is actually fairly self-aware, and makes fun of the way some of the kids behave himself. I think by the time he is 17 or 18 he will outgrow this sort of childish nonsense.

Under whose/what authority can anyone extend voting due to poor weather conditions? Is there any Federal or State constitutional authority for that? I don't know of any.

It seems even more questionable when lots of States have provisions for early voting. (IE if you were worried about a hurricane, in many cases you could have voted sooner).

I think hurricane or not, come Tuesday night the election will be over.

Unless the margin of victory is razor-thin, whining about hurricanes or after-action litigation is just going to look like so much sore-loserism.

224 #207 Authority and law are meaningless to this junta.

I think elections are still controlled on a State level.

To the extent that a storm depresses voting, that helps the side that has the more motivated voters (ie the ones who will brave a storm to go vote). In this case, I think that's *probably* Romney.

I say *probably* because the States that the storm is supposed to hit are all strong Dem states, and for all I know, the more motivated voters in THOSE states love Obama.

But more important, with the possible exception of NH, I don't think any of them are even close to being constestable anyway.

Is there any State that Sandy is expected to hit that is not a complete lock for Obama? (IE NJ, NY, MA, etc)?

We got a record snowfall (> 2 ft) a few years ago (over about 24 hour period) and 24 hours after the the snow stopped all the roads were driveable.

This whole Sandy thing has been so overhyped already you might think it was the Apocalypse. There could be a lot of rain and a storm/tidal surge along the cost, but that will be the worst of it. Some people will lose power for a few days, and that will be that.

A state senator had posted an article on our FB feed (about Biden's comment to the father of the slain SEAL) and a discussion began about the situation. Then the damage control people came out of the woodwork spouting Media Matters talking points to shut up the discussion. She's very politically connected and has thousands of friends - some of them are connected with the opposition's camp. After a three hour debate all of his majesties's defenders ran out of their talking points, and had to walk away. I hope people are using this medium to reach those who don't read blogs.

It doesn't work very well to get your message out to the unbelievers. Second, it is filled with things called facts. There are too many places to find a information that was conveniently left out.

They believe in the internet because the media hailed them in 2008 for being geniuses at using it. The problem was that he was only really reaching out to the youth vote (and illegal campaign contributors.) Four years later, the youth are disillusioned and, I suspect, a little embarrassed that they were used by a smooth-talking con man.

269 6 Say what you will but this election will unfortunately be close. OT: Gary Glitter got arrested. Something to do with the Saville/BBC scandal. Posted by: Redd at October 28, 2012 03:57 PM (Lom3Z) Concern duly noted, cataloged and archived.

270 Obama's problem is he thinks his big win in '08 was all about him. It wasn't. Any Democrat would have trounced McCain.

271 66 I think the Des Moines Register endorsement was huge. Who wants to be less hip and with-it than those hicks from Iowa? If the winds are changing, nobody wants to be downwind of Iowa. Posted by: AmishDude at October 28, 2012 04:15 PM (xSegX) Agreed. Verified by the amount of downplay proffered by the Communists.

273 I understand that BHO is a psychopath with narcissistic/con man tendencies (actually not a sociopath) but what motivates everyone close to him who isn't mentally ill? Just power? Do they know he's disturbed? Do they know he's gay? Does he still use cocaine? Probably yes, yes and maybe yes.

274 Ross Perot is the cause of everything. Perot made Clinton win, Clinton a draft-dodger and a serial adulterer. Then, the Dems thought the USA was more leftist than it is. Then, Obama won during n epic financial crisis and n unpopular war, and the idiotic Dems thought it was because Obama and the Dems and their policies are so popular. It is NOT true. Freaks like Clinton nd Obm cn only win when there are massive forces working against the GOP, as in 1992 and 2008.

275 A nerd with a twitter account is still a nerd.

The beauty is that now complete strangers can confirm and mock your geekiness via digital wedgies.

276 FTSB: The secretary of defense in his best grown-up voice says: Â“(The) basic principle is that you donÂ’t deploy forces into harmÂ’s way without knowing whatÂ’s going on; without having some real-time information about whatÂ’s taking place,Â” Panetta told Pentagon reporters. Fuckin' Reconnaissance-in-Force! How does it work?!?

278 what the hell is this twitter savvy? it's 140 effing characters typed into a smart phone that anyone can own. how is that being savvy at anything? it's like comparing the population of the US to that of any third-world country and saying that we're food savvy. no, being familiar with something because you happen to use it or simply have it lying around all the time does not make you good at it in the same way that driving a vehicle every day to work will not make you a formula 1 driver.

Actually less than that. At least the Prius gets good mileage.

280 This is for all the marbles. I have not, nor will I give an 'effing cent to someone who votes for Obama. Many of them who had nice Lefty jobs are now unemployed. Reality is smacking them upsides their head and they do not like it one bit. THEY are the smart ones and even though they have food stamps, deep down they want to get back to their cushy job that does not exist anymore. And it does not exist anymore because of BOOSH and those racist Tea Party racists. I am thinking of going long on purchasing Big Pharma stocks which specialize in depression meds. All paid for by ObamaCare of course.

281 Re: that really creepy Future Children Project video (h/t The Corner blog at National Review). http://youtu.be/fwlW4lx6TTo Who are FCP? Idk, but I don't want to find out. Their website is browser-greedy, and doesn't give you anything until you give them everything. What it reminded me of most? That video was made by people who have absolutely no problem dismembering a fetus and ripping it out of its mother's womb.... http://preview.tinyurl.com/8rvl4b7 I wonder how Sean Penn, L'il Barry, ValJar and legions of other Gen2 Commies got radicalized?
