I went in today, I have never done this before, so I want my future congressman to know who helped him get elected.

I showed up the poeple running the show were basically young kids. I am 26 and I felt young around these guys and girls. I think since Notre Dame Univ. is closeby, and is very conservative, most of them were probably from there.

They asked me if I wanted to deliver yard signs, fill envelopes, or call people. Being an in your face kind of guy, I chose the last one. I got a sheet of people and numbers and went through calling them. In order to "qualify" to be on the sheet, you had to be registered to vote, and NOT voted in any election for the past 6 years.

Well I started calling people, ooops I mean SHEEPLE. Most of them are just morons. They said they were republicans, but said they were voting for gore or democrats and were voting for bush. I told them that bush was republican or gore was a democrat they said oh yeah I meant the other person.

I asked them if they were Democrat republican or independent? Then if the electionwas today would they vote for bush or gore? If the election was today would they vote for chocola (R) or roemer (D)? Then I asked wht issue is most important, taxes, Social security, or education?

I got mixed answers on all of them and one dumb lady told me that she wasn't voting for bush b/c he is a member of the NRA. She told me now we have all the shootings and what have you, I also reminded her they all happened under the command of slick willy. SHe said oh yeah I guess you have a point.

Overall it was fun, I hope to go back this week and have some more fun with the SHEEPLE. I encourage everyone else to get involved!

As much as I am an in your face kinda guy (TRT, et al), I still work the politicos as if my life depended on it. Probably does.

As much of an impact I think that TRT has/does, I still think that the battles will be won by just taking over the political process. & one doesn't have to be elected oneself to do that, one just has to have an honest politico - & the definition of one o' those is one that stays bought.

As long as he's bought by us = good enough for me.

Enough said.
