 THINGS WE NEED DONE ! October 09, 2006 1:23 PM

1.)  
Start by printing out some of the stickers!  Tape them to your car, or your cube at work, or a window at home.  It doesn’t matter if they get rained on – just print some more!  This way you get to change up your message and keep things interesting.

2.)  
Tell your friends – both inside and outside of this network, and offline.

3.)  
Post notices to any web-site you have access to – especially social networking sites. (MySpace, FaceBook, Friendster, Del.icio.us, etc.)

4.)  
Note the story on the Care2 News Network, if you haven’t already, and then do the same thing at the Netscape News site:
http://politics.netscape.com/story/2006/10/07/now-you-too-can-think-like-a-neocon/
PLEASE DO NOT POST THE SITE TO DIGG YET!  We need someone with high credit there to do that.  I’ll let everyone know when the story is posted there so you can “digg” it.   If you know an influential “digger” at Digg.com, let us know via the Care2 deadelephant group or personal messaging.  

5.)  
Post notices to every blog that you can.  Posts to the following blogs will be especially effective:
Daily Kos
Huffington Post
World Can’t Wait
Treehugger
…and where else?

Here’s a brief piece of marketing text to post, or write your own:
-----------------------
Viral “anti-marketing” campaign launched against the GOP!

The campaign features 50 FREE bumper-stickers in a single theme, and with a distinctive logo!  Just two clicks to print them out.  

The one thing those wacky neoCons lack is a BRAND.  So let’s give them DEAD ELEPHANTS!  Be the first in your commute to sport one of these edgy, ironic bumper-stickers! They’re fun, they’re FREE, and they’ll show we’re ready to take our country back on Nov 7.
-----------------------
If you know anyone of influence at those sites, please put them in touch with us.

6.)  
Just to be clear – this is a strictly not-for-profit effort.  But the more successful it is, the more expensive bandwidth on the server will be.  Donations are appreciated, via a button on the homepage of deadelepant.ORG.

7.)
