I’ve done something I’ve never done before- I’ve gone to my local Romney headquarters in the evenings and made phone calls here in the Orlando area. We call all state area codes. On balance- the support for Romney has been much higher than for O. I’d say 2/3 Romney in the calls I’ve made.
It’s wonderful to speak with supporters and listen to them but there’s another side. MANY of the people I speak with are 80 and over. They are dismayed and bewildered and some are honestly heartbroken. They do no understand Obama- how he got here and what he’s done to America. Thanking them for getting their ballots in the mail or getting a ride to the polls with their grandson or neighbor is humbling. They see voting as a civic honor and duty and at least the ones I’ve spoken with have made it a priority.
Great!! I also enjoy doing phone banking here in FL!
To those who can give some time this weekend, please know it DOES help to make calls and also to reach out to neighbors....even the DEMS. I ask strangers first if they voted yet. And if they didn’t I start my questions. :)
