I tried calling Dan Rather and it worked.
More phone #s than ever are unlisted nowadays due to the increased use of cellphones. Therefore it would be VERY HELPFUL for everybody to call their personal cellphone call list since it is very likely that is the only way they can be contacted. I know that I got at least a half dozen votes for Bush tomorrow via this method. And multiply that by THOUSANDS of Freepers and it will make a difference in the close battleground states. AND also ask your committed friends to do the same.
From Kerryspot...Bush will win, pretty decisively, Qui-Gon said. Maybe, worst case scenario, it's 51-49 [percent]. But everyone has looked at how the voters will decide too cerebrally. You walk into that voting booth, you pull the curtain behind you, and youre alone. Its the centerpiece of our democratic process, and voters take that responsibility seriously. Its almost a religious experience, a sacred rite. And theyre going to go with whos going to keep them safe. Whos been tested. Its an emotional, gut reaction.
I'be been saying this for two months to people I know, but not on FR. I was flip in a previous post PJ-Comix. Don't hold it against me. I live in Cook County. Forgot you guys live in FL.
When I call people from my personal cellphone call list, I remind them about the Bin Laden threat on the Red States. If they were undecided before, that usually convinces them. I tell them they CAN'T let Bin Laden have the satisfaction of us giving in to his threat.
When??? In 1977 or something??? I love the pic tho!

You can get numbers of people to call from:

You may have to sign up to get a login, but after you do, that page gives you voter's names, phone #'s and addresses in battleground states (I am seeing OH voters and I am in PA). It also has a script for you to use to make the calls.
I own 2 cell phones- got 2-3 calls asking me to vote for Bush on the one I've had the longest. One was from a pro-life group. Someone is calling cell phone owners- kewl.
