4 Reasons to call Oregon for Barack Obama
- Pacific time, so you can call Oregon after the good folks of North Carolina and Indiana have gone to bed.
- To vote in the primary, Oregonians must be registerd Democrat, with their form received by April 29! Some of the folks we call are registered independent, and getting them to switch is a new Obama vote he didn't have before.
- Oregonians are really polite and friendly.
- With the primary a month away, nobody is sick of being called (yet).
A fifth reason is that every future Obama victory is a finger in the eye of all the media twits promoting McCain by any means necessary (= the means being Clinton at the moment).
A big stregnth of the Obama campaign has been its preparation in advance for primaries. So West Coasters and night owls, please stop obsessing about North Indianolina, go the to the Obama website and make some calls!
I had a great conversation with a guy in Eastern Oregon who said never in his life had he been called by any campaign before, and he sounded happy about finally being called! He was undecided, and the call may have made the difference.
