Interesting take on the use of Robocalls in the Wi recall elections. Notice the pattern of creating some sort of narrative, then dropping it when events don't turn out as planned. This is circumstancial evidence that the entire Robocall thing was manufactured post ex facto (look upthread and see how few calls Elections Canada received prior to the story breaking, for that matter consider how fast the story vanished once no factual evidence could be established for the supposed 10's of thousands of robocalls).

Whatever happened to those robocalls telling people who'd signed the Walker recall petitions they didn't have to vote in the recall election?
Everyone was talking about them on June 5th, the day of the recall election. The talk was of reports that some people said they got these calls. Now the election is over, and no one is talking about it anymore. Did anyone ever record one of these phone calls and put it up on YouTube? And where has all the outrage gone?
So I'll stir up outrage right now about the reports, dumped on the public on election day. Were the reports fake? If they weren't fake, where is the evidence? If they were real, who made these calls? Actual Walker supporters or Walker opponents?
Since the reports were made in a manner and at a time when it served the interests of Walker opponents, I always suspected Walker opponents of either faking the reports or generating the calls to cause the reports. I'm even more suspicious now that the subject has been dropped. If the calls were real and really made by Walker supporters, the opponents who claimed they got the calls or claimed they heard complaints about the calls would have an interest now in laying out the evidence. The silence is telling.
