From Ron Paul Daily -- Mark Levin encourages phone spam (http://ronpauldaily.blogspot.com/2007/08/mark-levin-encourages-phone-spam.html) --
Mark Levin [Site] (http://www.marklevinshow.com/) [WP] (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Levin) is encouraging his listeners to flood Ron Paul's campaign office with calls to tell him he can't win. This is a very underhanded approach, and is meant as a psychological weapon...there is a grassroots call to action:
I think all Ron Paul supporters should flood Mark Levin's show with Ron Paul is the right man for President calls. Call the Mark Levin Show at 1-877-381-3811
The action is targeted for Friday, August 17th.

Obviously my first instinct was to fight back - organize our (and AJ's) people to out-call, out-email, and out-hack his people. Then I thought about it a bit...
The neo-con asshole that he is, The Mark Levin Show is the 20th most popular (http://www.talkers.com/main/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=19&Itemid=44) in the nation, and he can get Limbaugh and the rest of his clones on his side as well. We need to win the hearts and minds of those silly people, not start them on a crusade against Ron Paul!
So, as infantile and disgusting as Mark Levin's attack is, I think we should turn the other cheek!
If anyone does call his show today, I think you should calmly explain that we cannot in good conscience vote for any Republican (or Democrat) other than Ron Paul, and if he doesn't get the nomination most of his supporters will vote Libertarian, or not vote at all. Sorry, it's our vote. And then explain the reasons why.
Being calm and rational will make it more difficult for him to hang up on you, and you might make some converts along the way.
