Yes on 66/67 campaign director Kevin Looper has a “wall of hate” in his campaign office, which I photographed this morning while I was talking to volunteers who were going out canvassing. There’s some pretty disturbing mail on the wallโ€”returned from “no” voters. What lies beneath the “no” campaign’s high-ground rhetoric? There’s more after the jump. Talk to your friends about voting.

Update, 8:30pm: I understand that some volunteers on the campaign were offended by this top image. I didn’t send the hate mail, and it was on the wall. It’s representative of what the campaign is up against, so I’ve posted it. But I’ve also moved it after the jump to avoid it glaring out at people who happen to just glance at the blog.

  1. I asked Chairman Mao for money. He told was all “get fucked!” and then called me a “blood sucker” and “job killer.” I’m so confused! If I become a markest, will I get free money???

  2. Thanks Matt.

    Some of these comments make me feel pretty bad for humanity. But all of them make me motivated to pass these measures. It’s a telling display of the forces the corporate lobbyists are playing off in their campaign — and what happens when we don’t value education.

  3. Gosh, an educational system that turns out these folks really is failing at its mission. Doesn’t anyone have any questions about handing over money with no strings attached to the same educational system that produced these illiterates?

    All very nerve-wracking.

  4. The important thing to remember is that stupid bakery commecial paid for by the Oregonians Against Job Killing Taxes was filmed in California with Californian actors.

    They care a lot about jerbs. Obviously.

    Also, lol Markests.

  5. Aaah, taking the nuttiest examples from the other side and using them to paint your entire opposition. A classic yet trasparent rhetorical ploy.

  6. LOL, it’s blabby!!!! Is there a local online comment section your underwear wearing basement dwelling self doesn’t respond to?????????
