Eastwood doing robocalls for Rove SuperPAC

[Adenoid_Hynkel]

Come Tuesday night, it will be apparent this guy threw away his dignity for nothing

Actor Clint Eastwood has recorded a new robocall for Karl Rove's Crossroads GPS group, in which he tells voters it's time to fire President Barack Obama because "he's failed us."

"This is Clint Eastwood. Really," Eastwood says in the spot. "In the last few years, America's been knocked down. Twenty-three million people can't find full-time work, and millions more are struggling. Now we hired President Obama to make a change. When someone doesn't get the job done, we've got to hold them accountable. And the fact is, he's failed us. We need a president who knows how to get that job done. That's why I'm voting for Mitt Romney. Thanks."

The Crossroads GPS robocall was received by a voter in Detroit and passed along to Shaun Dakin, who runs the site StopPoliticalCalls.org.

The robocall is part of a larger Eastwood campaign by Rove's super PAC, which also features a TV commercial in which the actor and director conveys a similar message.

4. Who in this day and age is swayed by a Robocall?

I mean really, I would like to meet the moron who is sitting on his or her ass and gets this Robocall and goes "My God, I will now vote differently. Even though I saw Clint shouting at that empty chair at the RNC I never really knew how he felt."

5. exactly

I seriously wonder why the parties spend money on them at all.
If anything, all they do is annoy folks at home.

10. I would like to have my own out going Robocall that will call all the Romney offices. It would say:

"Hello, this is RoboResponder 2012 with a preemptive message from the Master of the Residence. I pray that you do not take offense, but Master wishes that you cordially go and fuck yourselves. Take care, bye bye now"

6. Repubs tried to pass the empty chair as a joke, what do you think now.

Guess the born agains in the GOP did not understand what Eastwood was doing.

7. ...while sitting in an empty chair to match his empty head! n/t

[RomneyLies]

8. All the way up to now, I was willing to separate the artist from the art

No more.

I now put Eastwood in the same category as Gibson. No way do I spend a thin dime on anything this bastard creates.

9. I wonder how many of the wacky Romney voters

will try to have a conversation with Clint. I wonder how many of them will believe he called them, personally.

13. Maude, there's some young whippersnapper on the phone talking about some Rummy game. Get my teeth!

[Tutonic]

11. Oh my that would be scary at night. The sound of a $2 chain smokin drunk

yelling that you need to sit still.

12. I'm not alone in saying I' ll not bother to see anymore of his films

14. I got that one and tonite got one from Pat Boone

He's calling on behalf of some old-fogey group and I guess I got targeted because I'm an old fogey. I always let them go on and on and waste their money, but I got my "rocks" off by yelling back at Pat while he was talking and telling him how old and boring he was. Made me feel better.
