I had exactly the same thing happen to me with an RNC solicitor after the 2006 election. I went off on them about how rotten the Repubs were and it was if I was speaking to a recording. They kept going down in amount with every issue I brought up. I finally told them they were out of their mind and hung up.
LOL!!!
I wish they would call me. I would act like I was interested in giving the maximum amount and then tell them “just a minute while I go get my credit card”. Set the phone down and then check back in about an hour. You know it would be very hard for them to hang up the phone!
If they hung up and called back later, I would say “funny, after you hung up on me, a more patient McCain campaigner called, so I gave to them”.
Not Obama, but I’ve had Planned Parenthood call on behalf of Al Franken. Me, a staunch pro-lifer had fun with the caller.
” got a call from an Obama volunteer a few days ago. I just said “I’m voting for McCain” and hung up.”
They actually prefer that; sucking up their time is better.
Or get them to commit to absurd positions. “OH, I am so happy he will have reparations for blacks. I want my check.” Etc.
