Make Calls for McCain From Your Home

I urge FReepers who are not yet working on the McCain campaign in some manner start making phone calls from an online list from the comfort of their home. Using the link below, you register and can make a limited number of calls. They provide the phone numbers and the scripts on your browser.

You then have to wait an hour to be able to make more calls. However, once you have made a number of calls, you can request the ability to make unlimited calls by emailing the link on the last page after you finish your calls.

Join the McCain phone bank rather than make random calls. It is easy, and your time will be used more effectively.

Good gracious man, (or woman) stop complaining (they are slightly busy you know) and go to the headquarters and volunteer.

They'll probably have you make phone calls or wave signs on street corners...

..but you'll be put to work no doubt.

This is great, but I have a concern, maybe I don’t understand, but couldn’t Obama people just as easily use your link, sign up, get the phone numbers and call with pro-Obama messages? If this is all done online without any screening that you are a registered Republican volunteer, seems it could get out of hand. Well, I’m old, maybe I just don’t grasp the technology. But I congratulate and thank all you Freepers who do and are making those calls!

I got a mailing this morning saying we could choose the state we want to call, so I selected what I think is the most important state (and the one I know best), Pennsylvania. After about 10 PA calls, the numbers that come up are Colorado numbers.

When I disable my cookies and log back in to the McCain phone bank, I get Pennsylvania numbers again, but 10 calls in, it switches to CO. Is this happening to anyone else?

The same thing happened to me. Don’t let it bother you. The system determines where it needs calls made better than we do. Just call whatever they give you and don’t worry.

anybody from Colorado?

What’s the most important talking point to emphasize with Colorado voters?

That’s what I’m getting most. Thanks in advance.

Hope there are millions more like two guys from Colorado:

one is ex-military who voted for McCain because “I didn’t fight for socialism”

the other is a 66 year old solid conservative who said “I already voted for McCain and I walked my ballot down to the courthouse because I don’t like what I’ve been hearing about voter fraud. We’re like those people in Pennsylvania: we’re clinging to our guns and religion and we vote republican. Why don’t you call some of those liberal democrats?”
