Where are you and what kind of robo-calls/polls etc are you getting?

I am in Maine and I keep getting calls about protecting ourselves from evil abortionists, gays, and health care laws. And there may have been one about the guns too.

Of course, I only have a cell phone and I never answer it unless I recognize the #. Strangely, very little political mail either.

got a huckabeethehuckster call this a.m.

I just leave the phone off the hook until it goes into the beep beep beep mode. I think I'm tying up one of their lines for a bit.

I do get live calls from Organizing for America though. Great group.

Some of our cell towers are still down, and land line phone service is not good. Sometimes we get through on the land lines, but usually we get a busy signal or "all circuits are busy, please try again." I can receive voice messages on my cell phone, but I cannot play them. I'm staying home because, if my car breaks down, I will not be able to call AAA.
