Oh, and don’t pay any attention to issue fliers and phone calls you’ve gotten in the last day or two — especially if they really made you start to change your mind because, well, I Didn’t Know Candidate X Did That To Puppies.
Now, one of two things is going on there. It’s pretty unlikely that Candidate X really did do that to puppies, and it only came to light a day or two before the election. So either it’s a smear campaign from Folks For Candidate Y … or it’s meant to be so infuriatingly crass and obvious of a smear that it’s a covert smear campaign from Folks Against Candidate Y And Really For Candidate X.
You can’t believe any of it.
Use your head. Vote wisely.
The wonders of Vonage allowed me to keep my 720 number as a virtual number so that my family in Colorado can continue to call me and not have to pay for long distance. Unfortunately, this means I get political calls from Colorado and Washington. I do have to say that no one from Washington called me at 7 am (8 am Colorado) on Sunday morning to “make sure I got rid of those activist judges and imposed judicial term limits.” If I had a way to call them back at 3am or something I would.
