Say No to McCain - call for contributors

[olshak]

Here is something that can unite all Democrats and Independents... whether you support Obama, Clinton, or even Nader.

Contributors are being sought for a new site, and I will be frank… this is a site designed specifically for reporting on and analyzing the record and positions of Senator John McCain, the presumptive Republican nominee for the presidency. It is not intended to be a “hit” job, but I offer no apologies for the fact that I vehemently disagree with the overwhelming majority of Mr. McCain’s positions. Further, I believe that McCain is someone that sells out his principles for political convenience, and therefore cannot be trusted to hold the highest office in this land.

The new site is http://nomoreofthemcsame.com and will be online sometime early next week. If you are interested in contributing, I will be seeking articles for the site on the following topics:

1. Events taking place on the campaign trail, specifically looking at remarks made my Mr. McCain.

2. Mr. McCain’s voting record as a member of the United States Senate.

3. McCain’s publicly stated comments and positions.

Please send me a link to any blog that you are currently the author of or a contributor to, as well as two writing samples. You can mail these to [email protected].

1. You need to kick off with the article about how McCain withheld

information that would widen the Abramoff investigation to protect corrupt Republicans (such as himself). Search "mccain abramoff" and it will come right up. It's only a few days old.

Good luck with your site.

2. Thanks...

I hope we get some folks willing to be willing contributors... we need to turn up the heat and keep it up.

3. I"ll help you kick a few times. See if you can get some takers.

4. Draft

The site is not directed to its permanent url yet, but the temporary link is at: http://nomoreofthemcsame.wordpress.com/

I am posting so people can check it out and offer feedback.

These are just introductory posts to get things moving. I ultimately want to focus on McCain's voting record, his public comments, and his positions on issues. But this will give people at least an initial sense of the flavor of the site. I welcome any and all feedback, so fire away!

Thanks.

10. So far...

...I have a few people willing to send me story information, but still looking for people willing to be regular credited contributors. I should have another couple of stories on there before it launches the beginning of next week.

Thanks for those wishing this project well!
