Obama supporters: I pledge to make 25 calls a day for the next 2 weeks. Who's with me?
Edited on Tue Apr-22-08 09:07 PM by crispini
I have done some phonebanking for Obama, but not enough. And I'm telling you now, I'm tired of this race and I'm ready for it to be over.

Money is good, but time is good too, so to all Obama supporters on DU: PLEASE JOIN ME IN THIS PLEDGE!

If you haven't phonebanked yet, it's very easy to do it on my.barackobama.com. Click on "Action Center." It takes about half an hour or less to do 25 calls. They give you a script and if you have unlimited cell long distance, it's free to you. And it can be fun!

It appears to me that we're going to have to suck it up and redouble our efforts. So let's do it. YES WE CAN.

5. I agree that we need to turn up our efforts!
Now PA was an expected win for Clinton for months. Yet Obama put it in play and only lost by 8 as of now.

April was Clinton's month. May is OBAMA month so lets DOUBLE our efforts and go for VICTORY by May 6th!

8. I would love to call, but I'm gonna be on the ground in Indy.
It's been tough in some places so far, but I think we can pull it out.

9. You're already doing it!
You know, I haven't used any of my vacation yet this year. Do you think I should take a few days? Wonder if I could score a cheap ticket.

25. I have burned just about all of my vacation on this campaign!
But the states I went to (Wisconsin and Indiana) are easily driveable for me. However, we can use all the help we can get in Indy, even if it is only phone banking. I know what the polls say, but in areas like Terre Haute, this thing is still tight. We have got to put this race away.

19. I'm in
I had one problem the last time I was calling.
There was three buttons to click at the bottom YES Maybe NO

The buttons wouldn't work for me.

I used the sxcripted and let the people that I called know how to volunteer.

Does anyone know hat I should do the next time?

21. I already have my phone bank list and have started on it, thanks for remindng everyone!!
Unfortunately I'm starting to think that no matter what happens, these guys are going to keep on from state to state until they show up at the Convention, still behind in all the numbers but ranting that she should get the nomination. It's very frustrating.

I hear you. But I think the SD's will declare by June at the latest. They have to. They know how damaging it will be if we take it to the convention.

31. Thirty extra minutes a day? I can skip doing the vacuming a little while.
This is important.... the house can be a bit of a mess for awhile. Thirty minutes a day is not a lot of time.

Oooops! I forgot to bring the laundry in from the line! LOL. BRB!
