Wrong approach. Get a different attitude.

I have to say that I have gotten a bunch of automated calls this past week, but I hang up before I know whether it is Democrats or Republicans. Frankly I find them extremely annoying, and I wonder if they really help?

What a biased website. Even I was surprised.

And I'm cynical.

Each and every "story" is from a Dem POV. They are laundering Dem talking points and press releases.

I've received 10 phone calls from "Fast Eddie" Rendell today, and I'm a registered Libertarian.

No, they are going to bitch about it and have the MSM carry their water. ABC (are you reading this Mr. I-Wanna-Be-Fair-And-Balanced Halperin?) should be ashamed of themselves.

I hope you're right. I just made about 100 calls for the local GOP, and I don't think people are really receptive to the phone calls anymore. Everyone has gotten literally 50 calls over the past 3 months. I am in PA 6, where we have Santorum and Gerlach fighting to stay in office, so it's ground zero for phone calls. One man I talked to said that he just got a recorded call not 30 seconds before I called. Frankly I think the barrage of calls are pissing people off.

Make that 51 calls, John McCain just called me as I was typing this. Sigh. Oh well, back to headquarters to make more phone calls.

Joe freakin Piscopo was on my answering machine today.

Mine too. I almost hung up before he delivered his message to support Kean.

I think I heard Rush made some calls too.

political calls are exempted.

I wish they weren't. Particularly now that interest groups cannot run tv ads (thanks, McCain), we get even more pestering phone calls. F them.

My answering machine has been overheating. Lot of Dem calls, too. Some of theirs don't have any sound for about the first 15 seconds.

Dumb question: For breaking news... it's sure taking a long time for the actual story to come out. I don't see it anywhere else.

While the dems are in cemetaries writing down names. ...... Actually saw that in NY back in 2000. She had a "Hillary" sticker on the car too. Here in Fla. I received a call from John Mc Cain but when I had a question about what he said he had already hung up.

A personal call is better than an automated call, and a personal call from someone you know is better yet.

I can't imagine that an automated call would change anyone's mind, but then I'm not a political pro.

That's the Clinton call. If you listen closely you can hear the heavy breathing.

Are they complaining about the content of these phone calls, or the volume? Looking at the ABC page, it looks like they have cherry-picked as many "Republicans are evil" non-stories to headline as they could find. Without any actual report behind it, this headline make it sound like Republicans are doing something wrong.
