So, as I said, I am doing work for Obama. Today, since I live in a very blue state, I was called people in battleground states to see if they could do some work in theri neighborhood. I leaned a few things.
First, most people don't answer their phones, even if they have cell-phones. I think my wife is the last person who believes that if the phone rings you are supposed to answer it.
Second, i seems that so many people in America are moving and struggling. So many phones are disconnected, and so many people who signed up only two months ago are already someplace else.
There was some genuine enthusiasm, so it seems some people are paying attention.
I can't remember an election that has gotten this slimy this early. It seems that McCain will say anything he feels will be effective, but without any attention to truth. I guess he feels that Bush did it to him, so he can do it to Obama. "The Straight-Talk Express" seems to be completely derailed as he and Sarah have no contact with the press. They don't want to be accountable to anyone. Even the ladies on "The View" called him a liar, and he had nothing really to say.
It's sad, because there is so much at stake. For him to suddenly become a fiscal watch-dog, when he himself was censured by Congress during the last banking crisis is as ridiculous as it gets.
But that's they way things are going.
Also, That web-site that was posted as a response to my last post was interesting and worth checking out.

Have you stopped to look at what Obama is saying? All he does is attack McCain and Palin. Mostly Palin. It's frustrating because you accuse the right of playing hyperbole and then that's all you do. I don't like either of them but McCain is the lesser of the two evils. I just find people are on the left are idiots when it comes to politics. All they see is "OH, Lord, he's a Christian." You know, Christians have done a lot more good for this country than bad. Thing about that while you support someone who is going to further terrorism.
The saddest part is Obama probably will win because there are stupid people who will vote for him because he's black and not for what he stands for. Be careful...when you stand for nothing, you'll fall for anything.
While suturing a cut on the hand of a 75 year old Texas rancher whose hand was caught in a gate while working cattle, the doctor struck up a conversation with the old man.
Eventually the topic got around to Sarah Palin and her bid to be a heartbeat away from being President.
The old rancher said 'well, ya know, Palin is a post turtle.'
Not being familiar with the term, the doctor asked him what a post turtle is.
The old rancher said, 'when your driving down a country road and you come across a fence post with a turtle balanced on top, that's a post turtle'
The old rancher saw a puzzled look on the doctors face, so he continued to explain...
You know she didn't get up there by herself, she doesn't belong up there, she doesn't know what to do while she is up there, and you just wonder what kind of dumb ass put her up there to begin with.
