[old and tired]

Yep - I never got so many foloow-on emnails after donating to a campaign. It was almost tiresome,

I would like to see a thread here on FR about the robocalls. I received one yesterday (Saturday) morning at 8:45. It happens that I'm an early riser and so had been up for hours at that point, but lots of folks are still sleeping at that time. The call was from a traditional marriage PAC. It occurred to me then that these idiotic robocalls might be doing more harm than good.

I only got one phone call from the Romney campaign and it was a very polite human voice on the other end.

I don’t think the Robocalls help, as they are way over done.

It really undercuts the effectiveness of our Get Out The Vote calls, as those folks are “sick of all the political calls”.

And GOTV shouldn’t be lumped in with them, but they are.

I can’t see how robocalls are effective. If I don’t recognize the calling number, the caller can leave a voicemail. If it is a junk call, I can delete it immediately.
