Facebook hemorrhage continues

Now, I'm not saying this is the case -- this is *pure conjecture* here...

...but, theoretically speaking, becoming a FB friend does not necessarily indicate actual support or "fandom."

I have this image in my mind of Perry lackeys out on the street corner: "Hey, wanna earn a fast five bucks? Become a fan of this guy on Facebook."

Anyone with sufficient funds could surely use such a ploy to help pump up the perceived view of popularity.

Just saying.

again, these are not votes, but these are how the precentages breakdown:

Governor Gardasil: 42%

Debra Medina: 35%

Kay Bailout: 22%

still the same as 2 days ago.

still no one with 50%+ of the vote.

I wonder if Slick Rick is going to cry and grow a beard like Algore did when he gets stomped in the run off election.

Runoff?

My reaction? This is NOT about economic development, this is about buying votes -when Perry is buying he’s being bought. The cronyism wheel of grants out and contributions in is enough to make one dizzy. The deal isn’t even sealed yet but the press is all over it. Why do you think this offer with its prediction of 200-600 jobs depending on the article you read, is getting this kind of play in the press, when in the past all of these “slush fund” deals have been under the radar? Slick Rick is buying votes with his slush fund and he thinks this announcement of new job creation will work in his favor in the polls. Of course no one stops to think about who will be hired and from where. If the new hires are out of work people in Texas that might make this opportunistic announcement a little more palatable but that will probably not be the case. Facebook will interview people from all over the country for these jobs and theoretically not one Texan could be hired. Regardless, votes are being bought with taxpayer money and I resent it. King Richard must go! Vote Debra Medina if you want honesty and fairness returned to Texas politics.

AUSTIN – Gov. Rick Perry today announced that the state will invest $1.4 million through the Texas Enterprise Fund (TEF) for Facebook to create a sales and operations office in Austin. This investment will create 200 jobs and more than $3.1 million in capital investment. The TEF funding is conditioned upon the finalization of a local incentive agreement with the City of Austin.

I was just watching it today and I think she did a better job answering the question. She also reiterated the point that people have the right to believe what they will. To address the point with Alex this late in the race might not make a hill of beans.

Its interesting how the issue of 9/11 and if a candidate endorses it is far more important to these people than a candidates support of illegal wars that have killed millions of people or government endorsed torture programs. Where are they condemning these people? No, they follow the marching orders and rhetoric of Alex Jones and his theories as gospel. Those that follow any man against their common sense deserve the destruction that follows. Now I see posts where they say she is part of the establishment because she doesn't believe theories they do. Theories like the towers being blown up. There is no mainstream evidence for this being a fact. They have put the cart before the horse. In order to solve a criminal case you need an investigation. If you skip the investigation and use skepticism for the basis of your argument you yourself are a fraud and are falsifying the evidence presented. Although I believe that we have not gotten the truth of 9/11 I have not been so bold to claim that I have the truth. Are these people hounding Kay and Rick with the same level of scrutiny?

To Facebook people who are un-friending Debra, see ya, don't let the door hit you in the A-- on the way out.

that a Perry campaign operative would have good reason to send the Mark Davis interview over to Alex Jones and get him all riled up in attempt to flush any truthers and truther sympathizers out of Medina's campaign, realizing that they are some of the most motivated campaigners. They could have even gotten Mark Davis to back her into that corner.

I'm not saying that happened or even that they are that smart. However, my impression is that NWO-approved candidates have access to some of the craftiest, most manipulative campaign help available so I wouldn't put it past them.

...is that Debra has a lot of support from an older generation. I've seen a lot of elderly supporting her, and these people you will probably not find much on facebook or online polls. My parents and my husbands parents are just happy that they learned how to use a cell phone and check email. There was a tea party candidate forum held in my area and A LOT of the people that were in charge and showed up were elderly. My mom fit in better there than myself and my 5 kiddos. So I know they have been very politically active of late. Lets hope enough of them have been able to hear what Debra has to say.
