    Obama's Organizing for America involved in Wis Protests

    DNC Caught Organizing Wisconsin Protests - Obama's Organizing for America helps bus in protesters & adds 15 rapid response phone banks & 54 "tweets" - So Obama is attacking Wisconsin?

    DNC Caught Organizing Wisconsin Protests

    AP
    The Democratic National Committee's Organizing for America arm -- the remnant of the 2008 Obama campaign -- is playing an active role in organizing protests against Wisconsin Governor Scott Walker's attempt to strip most public employees of collective bargaining rights.

    OfA, as the campaign group is known, has been criticized at times for staying out of local issues like same-sex marraige, but it's riding to the aide of the public sector unions who hoping to persuade some Republican legislators to oppose Walker's plan. And while Obama may have his difference with teachers unions, OfA's engagement with the fight -- and Obama's own clear stance against Walker -- mean that he's remaining loyal to key Democratic Party allies at what is, for them, a very dangerous moment.


    OfA Wisconsin's field efforts include filling buses and building turnout for the rallies this week in Madison, organizing 15 rapid response phone banks urging supporters to call their state legislators, and working on planning and producing rallies, a Democratic Party official in Washington said.


    The @OFA_WI twitter account has published 54 tweets promoting the rallies, which the group has also plugged on its blog.
