ChronoSpark,

Thanks for everything you're doing. Great attitude and great work. Look me up in St. Louis. I used to live iin Springfield until 2 years ago. After 35 years there, it became very depressing to hear the same conservative crap everywhere I went. Maybe things are different now that the country's gone to hell in a handbasket even for a lot of the hardcore GOPers. SW Missouri has always been a drag on Democratic hopes in the state. With times ripe for change and your commitment, not this year.

It's awesome what you are

It's awesome what you are doing. I volunteered like crazy in the primary. I'm still doing what I can, but unfortunately due to life, it's more like a couple times a week instead of daily right now. Still, I know that rush of talking to somebody who isn't voting for Obama when the conversation starts, but is when it's over. I had the same experience while making calls and it really does reinforce the message that voter contact is what makes the difference. So that you for what you're doing. Missouri is looking like a possibility where only a few weeks ago, it looked like a lost cause. Si, se puede! :)

Glad to be of service, on

In reply to Thanks so much! The southwest

Hey Chrono. I second Deadman's comment. I've only done a little convassing, just enough to respect those people who are doing a lot more. I'm glad that you're out there. And thanks for posting about it at Dag.

Thanks so much! The southwest

In reply to you're doing great work.

Thanks so much!

The southwest is quite Republican. Fortunately, I've met many, many nice Democrats. Though the description may be accurate, I have to say, it's uplifting, because I find so many people that truly want change. The best thing that happens out campaigning? When I find a hardcore Democrat and/or Obama supporter among the swath of Republicans. And really, it always seems to be increasing. More and more people are going from undecided to DECIDED, and I think that more often than not, they're moving in Obama's column.

you're doing great work.
