UPDATE: Audio from the call here!
It's getting nasty!
Political phone calls ave been coming in every hour here at Mike's America. Most of them don't even connect, but hang up after I answer.
One call which did connect was especially curious.
It claimed to be an automated poll for the upcoming SC GOP primary on Saturday.
The first question was: "Do you support President Bush?"
I answered yes and the call ended.
A neighbor got a similar call and answered no. The automated "poll" then proceeded to explain why Huckabee is the only candidate who wants to end illegal immigration and that the others, primarily Romney were for amnesty.
The phone number for both calls was:(703) 961-1077.
And caller ID displayed the name: L Hinton
Using a reverse phone number lookup the following information is available online:
L Hinton
13296 LEAFCREST LN
FAIRFAX, VA 22033
(703) 961-1077
This same phone number has been connected to similar calls in Michigan (see this bulletin board discussion) and other states.
TPM Muckraker has the full story as well as the link to a group called Common Sense Issues which is operating a web site : Trust Huckabee.
In a December 17th press release, Mike Huckabee denied any connection to this group: "As I've said before, our campaign has nothing to do with push polling and I wish they would stop. We don't want this kind of campaigning because it violates the spirit of our campaign."
And yet the slime continues to ooze in the Palmetto State!
Only three more days!
