Obama Text Message — Ulterior Motive?
Now I know there’s been a lot of theories about the timing of the much anticipated text message from Obama like this one reported in the Wall Street Journal Blog… but, I wanted to ask all our readers/bloggers what their theories are with regard the timing of the text.
I just don’t buy that the 3 am text was a direct shot at Hillary’s previous 3 am attack at him. I was chatting with one of my friends who’s an ardent Obama supporter and he didn’t buy it either, but he thought it was because the pick got leaked and they needed to just get it out there before it was in all the media anyway.
Call me a skeptic, but I think there was another reason that will make sense later on in this election. I think this text message was largely designed to test the timing and effectiveness of the blogosphere. I’m not sure if anyone noticed this, but one of the liberal freaks at rochesterturning actually logged on at 3:35 am to report the Biden pick on their blog. I really can’t be the only person that thinks that’s absurd.
That’s what leads me to my theory that as much as the Obama campaign tries to debunk the mass email/whisper campaign against him, they are also developing a new way to go on the attack. Now that they have the cell phone numbers of millions of Obamamaniacs, the McCain smears can flow quickly and effectively and be posted on blogs not affiliated with the Obama campaign in… well… 35 minutes apparently.
