In 2010 she re-registered and voted (R).

A good portion of the problem is that most dem voters vote out of lack of knowledge. And, they have no idea they lack the proper knowledge; proper meaning original limited government, property rights, individual freedom - and how all these (and more) tie directly together. The notion that they lack this knowledge, let alone the notion of conveying even a small piece of it, cannot happen on the typical political phone call. These calls run on the paradigm that "touching" a voter enough times gets their vote, with calls, post cards, lawn signs, bumper stickers, ads, etc. Instead, the paradigm you used on this woman is really the most effective, most efficient, most long-lasting method to right our upside-down ship...

The woman I helped switch was voting (D) out of habit. She really had no thought behind it all. With people who vote(D) because they have been taught liberalism, the conversion is much harder because they have been conditioned not to discuss or ponder issues, but to respond with retorts and talking points as if in a sophomore debate.

Someone said, "something dies in a person's soul when they discover something they believe isn't true". That is a truism we all need to recognize. It is why we hold strong to our beliefs even when doubt begins to creep in.
