"Hello,My name is_______"


This last week I was campaigning for Michelle Bachmann. She won the election...barely, but she pulled through because, I am sure, of my heartfelt phone calls I made. I had some very funny-and sometimes rude-phone calls. Some of my favorite responses were:

Me: Hello! I am calling on the behalf of the Republican Candidates reminding you to get out and vote...
Man: No, I am voting for Mickey Mouse
Me: Well can I encourage you to vote for....Do you know where your polling place is?
Man: Yes! Disney World!
Me: Well Sir....
(FAVORITE PHONE CALL EVER!)

Me: Hello! My name is Gretel and I am calling on the behalf of the Republican Candidates reminding you to get out and vote...
Old Man: Why?
Me: Because...Can I encourage you to vote for Mitt Romney, Michelle Bachmann...
Old Man: I will never vote for that COMMUNIST!
Me: Sir, she is not a communist...
Old man proceeds to tell me his life story and how he is a republican farmer turned democrat...Such a fun conversation!

Me:....Can I encourage you to vote for Mitt Romney, Michelle Bachmann...
Old Lady: Are you Crazy???
Me: No, Ma'am, no I am not.

These are just a few of my 500 conversations (I am not exaggerating) that I had with people. I really wanted to act like this baby on the phone to a couple people. Michelle Bachmann did win-by the skin of her teeth, but she pulled through. I am sure it's only because of my spectacular dancing on the street corner while sign waving.

Until Next Time,
