What is Rootscamp?
RootsCampDC an “un-conference” where you set the agenda and lead the sessions. RootsCampDC is for people who played a role in the 2008 elections and are prepared to share with others innovations, failures, old wisdom and new discoveries.
Seems like ACORN or affliated groups are up to it again - this time there may be someone watching over thier shoulders.
You may remember that Robert Doeckel from Progress Now/One Wisconsin Now responded to my challenge to have video cameras and volunteers from his organization and mine at 100 polling places on election day and post to YouTube any mischief.
“and video cameras at the polls are just another right-wing voter intimidation tactic. i’ll be glad to share with you our reports of intimidation and misinformation to get voters to stay home.” Robert Doeckel
Seems like Robert and his friends are in training. Rootscamp Attendees
I trust Robert and all the attendees are planning on Doing The Right Thing. Yeh Right!
(Isn’t it interesting that Progress Now and One Wisconsin Now has same template for web site. Wonder where they get their money from? - George where are you?)
