wyld_dandelyonI could use a more colorful word there. Tomorrow is Wisconsin's primary election, and so the Republican comedians candidates and all their rich friends are plastering our TV with commercials. Both parties are sending us robocalls to remind us to go vote tomorrow. I don't mind so much when I get to talk to a real person, but a recording? You're interrupting my evening so I can hear a recording?
I do vote, and I think voting is important. But I've got a life--and not as much time for it as I want. Besides, a recorded message is just another commercial--and one that makes me run to the phone in hopes that a friend is calling! *sigh*
If I were undecided about who to vote for, I'd vote for the candidate that wasn't so rude!
On the other hand, having a cute young redhead show up on my porch to tell me about the candidate he and the AFL-CIO prefers wasn't bad at all.

What kills me is when this household gets a call from a Republican candidate. What in all our available information suggests we might have any Republicans here? Yeesh???
