"Amnesty Truth Express" follows John McCain around South Carolina

White vans festooned with "Amnesty Truth Express" signs have been following John McCain and his "Straight Talk Express" to his appearances in South Carolina. It's sponsored by the "American Council for Immigration Reform" (link: http://www.ancir.org/ ), which says:

Vans outfitted with Amnesty Truth Express signage will serve as mobile offices and as props to attract media coverage. Volunteers will be identified by their T-shirts that say "Amnesty Truth Squad." The volunteers will fan out and offer an information packet to those coming to the candidate's events. Some will carry protest signs and others will talk to the press.
Obviously, their strategy hasn't worked, at least as far as the last is concerned. There are only three MSM reports with the "ATE" name, and they've already been doing this for a few days. Leonard Doyle of the Independent calls them a "hit squad" and lumps them under the "sharp end of the anti-immigrant movement" banner (link: http://news.independent.co.uk/world/ame ... 348003.ece ).

And, Charles Hurt of the New York Post says:

Supporters of the Arizona senator listen to the rant [from someone from ACIR] before heading on in.

These die-hard loyalists have heard it all before, and most don't disagree with man on the sidewalk.

They're convinced that McCain has seen the error of his ways, yet also admire him for sticking to his positions.
Now, certainly, handing out flyers with background information might sway some small number of voters, and those might sway others. However, if they want to have a real impact they need to expose McCain's lies and misleading statements by asking him tough questions and then uploading his response to video sharing sites.

Do that enough times and not even his "die-hard loyalists" will be willing to support him, nor will "reporters" be willing to lie or mislead on his behalf.
