There has been a lot of speculation that Barack Obama might win the election due to his better "ground game" and superior campaign organization.
I had the chance to view that organization up close this month when I canvassed for him. I'm not sure I learned much about his chances, but I learned a lot about myself and about this election.

Yeah, his nuggets are kept in a lock box.
Ask not what you can do to help yourself. Ask what your government can do for you instead.
His ground game is paying everyone 100 bucks a day to support him. My dog could win this race with $600,000,000.
This guy is NOT a conservative.
He’s crazy.
Hmmmmm, kind of sounds like what one would have found if one had canvassed for Adolph Hitler in Germany. Unfortunately, the Germans got change, and lots of it. So, be careful of what you hope for when it comes to change. There is good change, and there is bad change.
Jebus, what was that crap?
“My wife made me canvas for 0bama”
“I am a swing voter”
Got huevos?
"Show me just what Mohammed brought that was new, and there you will find things only evil and inhuman, such as his command to spread by the sword the faith he preached." - Manuel II Palelologus
Another milquetoast moderate mishy mash who “just wants some HOPE”.
It’s not about bringing socialism to this country, it’s about HOPE and CHANGE!
I love these evidence-free wishy washy endorsements of Obama that tell us it’s not about issues (how convenient for Obama), rather it’s about “temperment”, or “hope”, or “change”.
For a ‘swing voter’, he sure did feel pretty generous to a Dem in 2007:
Of course, it’s completely normal practice for ‘swing voters’ who ‘decide’ while canvassing for a candidate to drop a grand donating to a candidate.
Mrs. Curley calling Jonathan to dinner: “Here puss puss puss....”.
The term “Useful Idiot” comes to mind.
What a loser.
These “henpecked worm” jackasses are what caused this Commie rag to stop printing a daily edition.
He’s not going to get a bigger tax cut from obama. Firstly, ppl who are leftists are big on increasing tax on EVERYTHINGN, no matter what they say on the campaign trail. Eventually when they can, they’ll increase it, its part of the ideology.
2nd, Bush tax cut will expire and democrats will not make it pernament, so everyone’s tax will increase even more
He’ll be HOPE-ing for some pocket-CHANGE if the 0bamunist wins.
Barf.
Those hopey-eyed people need to realized America has cared about them along. But its never about one’s self, its about all of us and doing your part to better your life which in the end helps everyone. Happiness comes from within, it’s not delivered by a politician.
Ballzoff overdose.
If Obama does happen to get elected what’s going to happen to the morale and hopes and dreams of these people when they find out he’s just another dangerous politician?
Casper Milquetoast thinks that hope is the most important issue in this election ?!? I’m sure it’s pretty easy for wifey to lead this guy around by the bits, since he doesn’t seem to be the sharpest tool in the shed.
DING...DING...DING
The winner is this post!
So true at so many levels......
Well said, thank you.
Sure you don’t mean cojones?
The telling this about this whole story is the “hope” for something better.
How easily some are sold.
just say no.
Maybe he’s the same guy who supports RINOs and socialists:

Funny, they’re both in the same line of work with the same name.
So, maybe he does dual citizenship between NC and WA. Or maybe he’s just FOS all around.
I don’t know which is more humuliating, working for obamba or admitting your wife made you do it.
(I told you gay marriage would ruin this country.)
Do me a favor...Remember this face:

This made me want to puke.
It’s not about taxes (read: limited government, the welfare state, socialism). It’s not about foreign policy (our lives, our treasure, the fate of the world). It’s about feelin’ gooooood.
Although it’s a little late in life, this dude needs to grow up.
I have no respect for $ussy whipped men. I think most of us women don’t.
He’s no freakin’ conservative! He’s a wimpoid empty-headed psuedo-man! I’d like to know what he’s “conservative” on!
This guy is an embarrassment. If I had any feeling my wife was voting for Obama let alone demanding I canvas for him I’d divorce her.
"I voted for Bush"
"I am the dreaded swing voter"
Uh huh, I was born last night
He’s not the only one. Five years ago my brother was a staunch conservative. Then he married a lovely lady who works for some Dem judge. She now has him completely and totally whipped and there is a big Obama sign in their front yard. He’s turned into a total liberal. He even listens to NPR and has a ballet subscription. I feel so sorry for him, but he doesn’t even realize that he’s had his testicles removed and put in a lockbox.
Nice catch! :-)
The cheaper the merchandise, the higher the gloss.
This guy’s just downright, un-manly!
Next time, this banker should get a dog. Liberalism is a mental disorder. If he wants to feel all warm and fuzzy, don’t make me pay for it. No wonder the banks are screwed up, hiring these losers!
Or when they find out Obama is not actually going to pay their mortgage or fill their gas tanks?
I have a feeling, though, they’ll end up blaming someone besides The One.
Vote for Obama cuz I need the money.
He’s also involved in the party of death and The Lord has warned His people not to go there. If you do then you’ve opened the door to death of every type in your life...short version of His warning.
That's right, folks: I'm a brainless dweeb with no principles. And I'm voting for 0bama. Because he promises change. And gives hope. I have no clue regarding change to what, nor hope for what. But that doesn't matter to brainless dweebs.
My wife made me canvas for 0bama
Now, seriously, are there that many men out there who let their wives treat them like this?
Are we that screwed as men in this country?
Testosterone has been banned from TV, MSM and Hollyweird movies for the most part, I know. Hairy chests are a gross thing to the wax-a-day, jet-set metro-boys n’ girls, I know. A man with character, integrity and, God-forbid, a uncompromising opinion is something fround upon as rigid, un-PC and generally distatesful in the public square, I know.
But have real men disappeared from the real world?
What’s up?
“I told you gay marriage would ruin this country.”
Ha!
Yeah, that you got neutered when you put the ring on.
Interesting, I've heard a couple of people call in to the local show here and say that they have lost friends and had severe arguments with family members over disagreements in this election.
So much for the great "uniter"
LOLOL - a ballet subscription!!! LOL He'll probably wake up some day.....
“Sure you don’t mean [explicative]”
Why, I would never use a word like that in FReeperville.
Oh yeah, he’s a Conservative. The CSM is all about Conservatives. That is when they aren’t engaged in being human shields for Socialist dictators.
