Busy Day For The Astroturfers

It’s going to be a busy day for the Anti-Healthcare-Reform astro-turfers tomorrow.  The seem to be starting early in the morning in Ft. Collins, and ending the day in Highlands Ranch, after stops in Greeley, Longmont, and Wheat Ridge.

I say ‘stops’ because this looks like tightly scripted rallies, designed to be more photo opportunity than real effort to show an opposing view.

According to an involved Douglas County twit, @ChristaHuff, the rally is making stops at 7:30am in Ft. Collins, 10am in Greeley, 12:45pm in Longmont, 2:00pm in Wheat Ridge, and finally 3:15 in Highlands Ranch.

If you want to attend, or follow along, here’s a link to a Google Map of the route.

However, based on the timetable of this effort, it looks like there will be single large group in Ft. Collins and Greeley, but that group may break up later in the day, with parts of it going to Longmont, Wheat Ridge, and Highlands Ranch.

I’ll be twittering (@lofdev) and trying to get some photos up as the Greeley event goes on.  If you happen to be at the rallies, take some photos and let’s see if we can identify the folks who are actually from the places where the rallies take place.

Oh, yeah.  The route for Friday is pretty ambitious, too.
