Cigarette dangling from her lips, glass of whatever with ice clinking in hand, whiskey voice

she answered the door as my friend and I stood there waiting...you just never know in NH. We were were canvassing her neighborhood.

Gulp. "Ah, we're volunteers for Obama, and..."

"He's my man!"

"Oh, that's great..."

"Yep, he's my man from day one. I'm voting for him no matter what. He's my man!!!!" SLAM.

Wow. I love canvassing. You just never f'ing know in NH.

2. I canvassed again today

go two leaning Obama, one "not HIM", and talked to two people who weren't interested in anything

This is in Cantor's district west end Richmond-2 to 1 Republican mostly

[graywarrior]

5. Today we got 2 republicans who are voting for Obama

It was a good day after my friend got her ass bit by a dog at the very first house and then the next house some old guy yelling "I hate Obama! I hate that bastard. Hate Obama!"

15. What'd Obama do

3. Great story!!!

[sandnsea]

4. I fell down

:cry:

Wounded in action. But I did get a voter registration card, and met a nice couple on the next block who are solid Democrats. I love it when the 70 year olds go on and on, adoring Rachel.

[graywarrior]

7. Rachel is a huge hit in Conway, too!

I love it.

6. I love the Raymond Chandler-style reporting. That is good stuff. nt

[graywarrior]

8. I felt like I was a character in a book today.

9. K&R'd.

So nice to get a slice-of-life like that.

[AtomicKitten]

10. Wow, and that might have gone badly.

Well done.

[monmouth]

11. Great story, thought for a minute it might be Gloria Grahmn, but alas,

the great movie star who played roles like that are no longer with us. You wrote it so well I could picture it..LOL.

[graywarrior]

12. She was dressed to the nines in a housecoat and fluffy slippers

I adored her.

25. MAXINE

13. Yikes. I thought this was going to be a scene out of The Graduate for a moment there.

:smoke:

[Phx_Dem]

14. That's cute. She sounds kinda fun. lol

I saw 4 Obama bumperstickers today at Petsmart. And yesterday, some senior woman (80ish) came up to me as I was loading groceries into my car and pointed to my Obama bumpersticker and said, "thanks for supporting a good man." :woohoo:

I live in Phoenix.

[Cha]

18. Of course you do!

:hug:

[chill_wind]

21. Love it! I knocked on lots of doors today, too.

I've never canvassed--- I thought I was showing up for a voter registration drive.

We signed up several new voters, only got one "Not interested!" (SLAM). Lots of Obama leaners-- NO McCains.

This was just too damn easy. I could get hooked! :-)

[graywarrior]

22. Hooray for chill_wind!!!!

Yep, it's easy to get hooked. This was my 4th weekend canvassing.

Keep up the great work. The more people we talk with, the better chance Obama has of winning this thing.

[chill_wind]

23. :-)

[codjh9]

24. Awesome! I'll be doing that in NM in a few weeks... hope to report something similar!
