Knocked on 84 doors today in MO and one neat story......
Edited on Mon Nov-03-08 06:00 PM by KansasVoter
I knocked on 84 doors today and talked to 34 people. Only two rude McLame people!

One black gentleman was voting for Obama tomorrow and had not voted in 20 years. He said before this election he didn't think it mattered. I might not agree with him, but I understood why he felt that way. It was a neat story to hear and made me feel good about walking today.

I just turned 50 a month ago and my legs feel 50 after walking today! Walking again tomorrow from 9:00am till 6:00pm. And then going to watch the returns. I hope we can turn MO blue!!!

I won't be able to sleep tonight! I am a nervous wreck!

2. Good work!
There are always rewards when you do the right thing. Don't be nervous, we will win tomorrow thanks to the work you and hundreds of thousands of others have been doing. Thanks for sharing your story about the old fellow who has decided to vote again after 20 years. Very heartening tale. Thanks for walking the walk and talking the talk for Obama. :yourock:
