I Just Got Home From Canvassing - And Another Obama Flyer Came Today (large pics)
It's the first weekend with temps above 70 here, so a lot of people weren't home.
We found a few more Hillary voters today, but most of the people we saw were her demographic, older, lower income voters. Still, even with that, Obama had nearly as many supporters there. The last neighborhood we canvassed was more upscale, and every person we spoke to there (but one) was strong Obama! The only lady there that wasn't said she was still undecided and liked both Hillary & Obama. She said she planned to come to our headquarters and that someone else from the Obama campaign had visited her last week.

Here is the flyer that came today;

4. Great flyer, great message!
Kudos for the canvassing! I hope you Pennsylvanians do better than we did in Ohio! But we were in the middle of NAFTA and "Shame on You" -- I'm keeping my fingers crossed for you guys! (and plan on donating again to help the cause!!) Good Luck!!!

8. No One Even Mentioned It...
We must have talked to seventy people. My son called another 50 people today and he said no one brought it up either.

6. Obama is a good guy...he used a flattering pic of Hillary; doubt she would do the same for him.

12. Not Home
First beautiful Saturday of April. Everyone is out and about.

The few people I got to talk to were outside their houses doing yard work.

10. Is he rejecting all those lobbyist who want stem cell research and for women and gays to have
equal rights? Doesn't Obama and his silly, gullible, adoring supporters know there ARE a lot of lobbyist who are lobbying for good causes? How stupid and immature is that? Can't you see through the politics of deception? Lobbyist = BAD!

11. I really appreciate your keeping us up-to-date
with your "on the ground" stories, Jim.

Thanks for all your diligent work, and your son's as well. I guess we didn't work hard enough here in Ohio pre-primary, but we'll kick it up for the GE.

:hi:

14. I Don't Think Ohio Had Anything To Do With The Lack Of His Supporters Effort There...
She went awfully negative right near the end and she got a lot of free press.

17. Jim,
what's your sense of how Bitter-gate will play out if it continues to get more pub in the media and more Pennslvanians become aware of these comments (which seems likely as McCain is going to drum it up on Monday)?

19. Honestly, I Think This Is Mostly A Media Flap...
Edited on Sun Apr-13-08 01:43 AM by JimGinPA
It's not going to be a "deal breaker" to anyone that either supports him or leaning to him. The people who would use that as an excuse note to vote for him weren't going to anyway.
