I am reaching out to all DKos readers. We need help to get someone in a Pinocchio costume out to every McCain or Palin event coming up this week.
We have a limited opening to define Palin (+McCain) as liars. The Repubs were able to do this with flip-flops we can do it with Pinocchio.
The Obama team has started the process with his new ad
"Politicians lying about their records? You don't call that maverick. You call it more of the same."
The Pinocchio meme might be catching on - see below
The Pinocchio meme is catching on today on the Frontpage of DKos

It is not so much that the ad is a lie. Lies, after all, are the campaign currency of Pinocchio Palin and Mendacious MccCain, used to buy a news cycle there or low-information vote there. It is the type of lie that is presented that speaks more to John McCain's character than five years in a prison cell ever did.
Tomorrows rally is - that all thats currently list on the site.
09/10/2008 - Road to Victory Rally: Fairfax, VA on September 10th - Doors open at 8am
Palin is a blank slate so she is easy to hit on this - but its also great for McCain because it undercuts one of McCain's strongest points - he is "Honorable".
It also is example of the Change O will bring TRUTH. You can do the opposite type of ad - Obama could have lied to you about the Gas Tax holiday but he didn't he told the truth. etc. etc.
Right now I could only find the 3 rally's posted on McCain's website if anyone know of a good source to get info on when things are happening further out please let me know.
Other options with Halloween coming up is just a nose or this nose
