•  Karl Rove's election surprise

Karl Rove has been bragging for weeks about his "72-hour program" to
swing the elections, which predict a Democratic takeover of Congress.

Now we know what it is: a dirty trick campaign using robocalls.

The calls are made to Democrats and swing voters at all times of day
or night to make them angry. And they pretend to be from the Democrat
("Hello, I'm calling with information about Lois Murphy"wink. If you hang
up, they call back 7-8 times, and each time you hear the Democrat's
name, to get you angry at him or her. If you stay on, you get to hear
a scathing attack on the Democrat.

Karl Rove's whole career has been devoted to dirty tricks. In 2002,
his dirty trick was to force Congress to vote shortly before Election
Day for the Iraq War based on two months of White House lies about
WMD's and Al Qaeda ties. That dirty trick has cost the lives of 2,834
brave young Americans (16 so far in November), $2 trillion in debt to
our children and grandchildren, and unleashed massive bloodshed in Iraq.

It's too late for legal action or even newspaper stories. If you
receive one of these calls, write down the time and candidate and call
every radio and TV show you can and urge everyone listening to vote
against the disgusting Republican dirty tricksters. And forward this
email to everyone you know so they aren't fooled by Karl Rove's dirty trick.
