Clinton campaign looking for backup on social media

[UglyGreed]

Milwaukee, Wisconsin (CNN)Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign wants its supporters to step it up online. And are offering inside information for those who do.

In an email to supporters on Wednesday, Clinton's digital organizing director, Jess Morales Rocketto, asked for help making sure her message was "coming through loud and clear" on Facebook and Twitter. The email asks supporters to join a group that will get updates from Clinton's campaign headquarters about what to post on social media.

The email is also a tacit acknowledgment that Clinton's campaign is having trouble matching the size of Bernie Sanders' online community, particularly in tweeting about big moments in the election campaign.

1. Dear Minions: today's word is "EGO"

Now go forth and use it!

Also, Sanders is not a democrat.

6. Yep I noticed that

and maybe it's my mind running wild but it seems some posters who are either new or dormant on DU have been rising up here as of late....

[litlbilly]

8. How many times does Hillary use the words: I and me, and, how many times does Bernie use those

words? No contest so their new meme machine is getting dumber and dumber

[Matariki]

19. Projection is a tactic

maybe it's an attempt to counter this:

Lololol

31. she has AOL locked up.

and bernie FORGOT more about being a dem than HRC will ever pretend to know.

Who is facing indictment and who isn't? One starts with an H and the other a B.

2. Social media smells bullshit from a mile away, and reacts predictably every time.

Bad idea, team Clinton. But reading the tweets will be lots of fun.

3. There's no doubt about it...

... that, in large part, I'm sure, due to the age discrepancy, Clinton has less presence on social media. I stumbled into this site and saw the need for more presence and am trying to address it, but I'm constantly bumping into acronyms I don't understand (and neither does Google search). I don't have a smart phone and I did a "study" on Facebook and found that only 18 of my friends saw a post before it drifted so far away only the most fanatic would see it. I hope I can get on that list and help out however I can.

5. She has to pay people to clickity click as it is, have no idea how much more she will have to spend

to get more clickity clicks

[Faux pas]

7. Love it!!!!!

[tularetom]

9. Paying people to tweet? Yeah, that'll work

The fact that they even have to beg their supporters to be more of a presence on social media, tells me all I need to know about how out of touch they really are.

[frylock]

11. Have we determined what today's talking point memo is?

[MissDeeds]

12. They want to make sure

her message is "coming through loud and clear"? Umm, yes it is, that's why so many of us are supporting Bernie.

[floriduck]

14. Desperation. . . . .

sung to the tune of "Desperado".

[cui bono]

16. They can start with Twitter - #imnotkiddingmaddi did pretty well.

20. Looks like Hillary missed one of the Rules for Radicals.

Power is where people think it is. And they no longer think it is with the Clintons. Put on some Dylan, reflect on the shift in the Spirit of the Age and where it left you behind, and watch the new world. The beauty of all things is in its impermanence, and that includes power.

Well...almost all things...

27. Another Alinsky reader.

If enough of us show up maybe we could make him more successful than Ayn Rand.

23. Gotta teach them how to click those online polls.

[nadinbrzezinski]

25. This was posted the other way

And it still makes me laugh

[dchill]

26. So now "Social Media" ...

Is going to be even MORE inane and gagworthy!

[Kang Colby]

28. Well, she is already winning the delegate, superdelegate, and polling game...

which ones matter again?

[jfern]

29. They own the traditional media

They freaking bought the Onion. Do they really need to own all media and have it all 100% biased against Bernie?

[jillan]

30. Lol - they are going to need it because a shit storm is on the way.
