Bob Schaffer: Twitter Fail

Bob Schaffer’s twitter account not only pimps the booze but tries to connect to his “followers” and fails.

I have a Republican twitter sockpuppet who Schaffer followed for reasons unknown to me. After his requesting to follow my sockpuppet, I decided to follow him back. I received this direct message:

Wow, a new follower — and a persuasive one, too! Thanks for connecting. ..will keep watching your posts closely!

I thought geez, Bob Schaffer is crazy if he likes my sockpuppet. Then I realized there is no way in hell Schaffer is paying that much attention. So I decided to test my hypothesis that his direct message is crap. And I was right.

I, sufimarie, started following him to see if I would get the exact same direct message. And I did.

So remember tweeting Republicans: encouragement by your establishment Republican leaders is as hollow as your platform.

That is all.
