This is me about to call Wisconsin voters with @WisDems. I’m terrified!
First call. Me: "I'm calling from Wisconsin Democrats to talk to people about the issues they care about most." Him (pissy): "Y'know what I care about? You people not calling me all the time. Take me off your list." That's the worst that can happen & it wasn't that bad. Back in!
By the way, I was calling for someone named Kathleen so my sick burn back to this guy was (bright and cheery) "Is Kathleen available?". He hung up.
The only other person I've managed to get on the line was a nice woman who told me I had the wrong number. This is how we win!
Just had a pleasant enough chat with a Trump enthusiast who said he gets all his news from Facebook. I encouraged him to mix in a little news from sources with editorial standards like the unbiased NPR and he couldn't believe I called NPR unbiased. We finally agreed that...
it'll be interesting to watch the debates and see both men side by side & determine for ourselves how mentally "with it" they are. He's seen vids on Facebook that make Biden look out of it. I explained that they certainly exist with Trump and he was quiet. Oh well. Next call!
Okay, lots of hangups later, I'm out of time. Phone banking is fun and easy and feels good. Sign up to do it!
