Carly Fiorina, Republican Senatorial Candidate from California, has released what may be the most ridiculous campaign video ever on her website www.fcino.com. I don't really have the words to critique this one. See for yourself.

The hashtag #demonsheep has now become a trending topic on Twitter. I couldn't help but contribute myself.

I saw a #demonsheep drinking a pina colada at Trader Vic's. His wool was perfect.

For those of you unable to attend last Monday, here is the video of five of the six Republican candidates competing to run against incumbent Steve Kagen for Wisconsin's 8th Congressional District. The vetting was sponsored by the Fox Valley Initiative.

Scott Baio

Last post we reported that radio/television personality Glenn Beck was receiving death threats on Twitter. Today it is actor Scott Baio receiving the morbid tweets.

An individual calling them self "timafi" sent Baio the following:

@RealScottBaio a GRAND WIZARD like YOU Scott Baio should be PUT DOWN and someone will PUT YOU DOWN.YOU;your WIFE and KID 

@RealScottBaio easy to find your house Scottie boy and finish YOU. I am a republican and I love Mrs O.

Mr Baio contacted Twitter to report the threats and posted the following:

PLEASE NOTE: The FBI has been contacted & we have a file number for the threats, along with twitter support. Thx

Let's hope that this individual is found and prosecuted. Anonymous threats, especially concerning one's family, are disgusting and unacceptable. How prevalent is this behavior on Twitter and what are they doing about it?

Here's a link to the story as covered by US Magazine.com.

scumdeath's AvatarAn anonymous individual referring to them self as "scumdeath" is posting death threats to radio and television personality Glenn Beck using the popular social networking site Twitter. Using the Twitter handle @MurderGlennBeck, this individual is promising to "literally assassinate" Beck if they can get 10,000 followers by the end of January. The Twitter community is buzzing with calls to remove this person's account and track them down. How long will it take Twitter to respond and remove this unstable individual? The following are some of the posts:

If 10,000 people follow this Twitter by the end of January I will literally assassinate Glenn Beck. Retweet this for scumdeath. 12:05 PM Jan 12th from web

Hello new followers. Don't forget to retweet the original tweet. I want to make sure Glenn Beck dies. I'm sure you understand

Almost reached 100! Keep up the good fight! Thanks Twitter for protecting free speech (not just for the right-wing you know :D)

Dear impotent conservative twitterers: please stop reporting this to Twitter. I'm afraid that it's counter-productive to my cause. Thank :)

As of now this Twitter account has been "suspended due to strange activity." We'll keep monitoring Twitter to see if this individual reemerges or is tracked down.
