How many here are happy to hear that a progressive non-profit organization has collected data on them? Not many I would assume, but Oh Well............ that is exactly what Catalist has done. Liberals aren't good at digging into people's records and past and personal lives because they're lucky. Catalist was created to gather information and up to this point has now collected data on over 265 million Americans. Among other sources, I've no doubt that the dems in Wisc are using information stored at Catalilst to destroy conservative nominees and win elections. All a person has to do is read their web site to get a feel for what we're up against. Notice the nice words they use to sell themselves.
